use ffmpeg -i rtsp://@URL -acodec copy -vcodec copy abc.mp4 command. give your rtsp url to @url and also output path to abc.mp4. it's save stream as video file. — msj

Did you try using this command?

ffplay -rtsp_transport http rtsp://@URL -acodec copy -vcodec copy

I got it from this link

To play an rtsp stream in Android: if you don't wish to use the command line ffmpeg tools but access the ffmpeg library directly I recommend; https://github.com/potterhsu/RtspLibrary.

(Note if you wish to save the rtsp stream to disk using the ffmpeg command line tools I recommend https://github.com/bravobit/FFmpeg-Android).
