[Live-devel] HTTP Live streaming

[Vikram Singh]

I get the H.264 encoded frames in  a queue.

I implemented RTSP live streaming by extending the class
OnDemandServerMediaSubsession and reading from the queue.

Can the same be done on HLS.

 

My requirement is to stream OpenGL frames and visualize on a iPad.

I can do the same using RTSP but iOS doen't support native decoding for
RTSP. It supports only for HLS.

1)      Can we stream h.264 encoded data using HLS in live555. If so, can
you please point me out the example which does this in live555 testProgs
folder.

 

It's not an application in the "testProgs" directory.  Instead, it's the
"LIVE555 Media Server" application (in the "mediaServer" directory).  See

            http://www.live555.com/mediaServer/#http-live-streaming

 

 

 

2)      I was going through a example testMPEG2TransportStreamer.cpp which
stream a test.ts.

I have placed a valid test.ts file in the path and executed the
testMPEG2TransportStreamer.exe.

But what is the url so that it will play in browser.

 

By default (unless you make a small modification to the code), the
"testMPEG2TransportStreamer" application does not have a built-in server,
and therefore is not accessed via a URL.  Instead, run the "LIVE555 Media
Server":

            http://www.live555.com/mediaServer/

 

                             



3)      Can we stream a h264 data simultaneously to both RTSP and HLS
clients.

 

As noted in the first link above, the "LIVE555 Media Server" can stream a
MPEG Transport Stream file - containing H.264 video - to clients using
either RTSP or HLS.  However, the data source *must* be a file (and must
have a corresponding index file), and is not streamed 'simultaneously' to
multiple clients.  (Instead, multiple clients can each choose to stream the
file at whatever time they choose.)  Note that we do not support HLS
streaming from a live source - only from a pre-recorded (and pre-indexed)
file.
