[Live-devel] Question live555MediaServer

[Jeff Shanab]

No direct support, you have to write something, a plugin, but the live555 libraries help a lot!.

I use live555 libraries in a browser plugin written using the FireBreath Cross browser plugin framework. 
I am connecting directly to rtsp streams of security cameras as well as our own http.
I also subclassed some of the live555 so that I can create HLS on the fly on my server to serve out HLS to ipad,ios, and droid, but we are moving away from it because the inherent latency is not appropriate for security cameras.

VLC has a browser plugin that can catch MPEG TS streams sent by Live555's media server.

If you must work with native browser facilities, then no, there is no direct support right now.  Browsers natively expect video to be delivered via HTTP, not RTSP.

Apple browsers (desktop Safari and iOS Safari) support a variant of straight HTTP downloads called HLS, which is supported in Live555 right now, but that's not going to help you with other browsers.
