The nginx.conf is simple: sudo cat /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf worker_processes 1; error_log logs/error.log error; events { worker_connections 4096; } rtmp { server { listen 1935; application live { live on; dash on; dash_path /mnt/dash; dash_fragment 15s; } } } http { server { listen 80; location /dash { root /mnt; } } types { text/html html; application/dash+xml mpd; } } I push the web camera to 127.0.0.1. output="rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/sample" ffmpeg -f v4l2 -video_size 640x480 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -f flv $output Pull it with rtmp protocol: ffplay rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/sample Succeeded!

I build RTMP server on my local pc according to the nginx official manual: video-streaming-for-remote-learning-with-nginx My nginx setting: sudo vim /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf worker_processes 1; error_log logs/error.log; worker_rlimit_nofile 8192; events { worker_connections 1024; } rtmp { server { listen 1935; application live { live on; interleave on; hls on; hls_path /mnt/hls; hls_fragment 15s; } } } http { default_type application/octet-stream; server { listen 80; location /tv { root /mnt/hls; } } types { application/vnd.apple.mpegurl m3u8; video/mp2t ts; text/html html; } } Set the rtmp url: output="rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/sample" Push the web camera : ffmpeg -f v4l2 -video_size 640x480 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -f flv $output Pull the stream with rtmp protocol: ffplay rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/sample I get the video successfully. Pull the stream with hls protocol: ffplay http://127.0.0.1/live/sample HTTP error 404 Not Found http://127.0.0.1:80/live/sample.m3u8 : Server returned 404 Not Found #It can't get video with browser. How to fix it? What does the following code snippet in http segment mean? server { listen 80; location /tv { root /mnt/hls; } } Where should i mkdir /tv ?

I'm having problems getting NGINX with the RTMP module to start when the RTMP server block is used within a file inside the sites-available (symbolic linked to sites-enabled). NGINX configuration files are all located at /etc/nginx/. If I use the below RTMP server block directly in the nginx.conf, the server starts up perfectly fine. However, as soon I remove the comment from the line include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*; in the nginx.conf, systemctl status nginx.service comes back with"nginx: [emerg] "rtmp" directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/livestream:1

`
rtmp {
    server {
        listen 1935;
        chunk_size;

        application obs_output {
            live on:
            record off;
        }
    }
}

` These are the two guides I followed to install NGINX and the RTMP module. - https://helpdeskgeek.com/linux-tips/create-your-own-live-video-streaming-server-with-linux/ - https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/setup-rtmp-streaming-server/ Any ideas what's going on here please? Many thanks in advance

I want to download a video recorded today at 5-6 pm from the following earthcam: http://www.abbeyroad.com/crossing How can i download it in debian or ubuntu? Inspecting the source code i got the following: rtmp://video4.earthcam.com/archives/MP4:abbeyroad_archives/2016/03/26/1700.mp4 I tried using the rtmpdump application as follow: rtmpdump -r "rtmp://video4.earthcam.com/archives/MP4:abbeyroad_archives/2016/03/26/1700.mp4" but i get the following error message > INFO: Connected... ERROR: Closing connection: NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound

I am using archlinux trying to connect to an RTSP stream on my local network (local IP camera) and am getting very hit-and-miss performance from VLC. Most of the time the connection runs just fine, but sometimes the connection _freezes_ and I have to close and reopen to resume. Running from the terminal shows the following: VLC media player 2.2.4 Weatherwax (revision 2.2.3-37-g888b7e89) [0000000000bbf1f8] dummy interface: using the dummy interface module...

[00007fa54800c618] avcodec decoder error: more than 5 seconds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?) This is obviously a bit off as this is an intel laptop with no nvidia components. I cannot figure out where/why it is looking for nvidia files (or if it is even relevant to the problem) Running grep -iE 'vdpau|dri driver' ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log yields: [ 99171.065] (II) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI driver: i965 [ 99171.065] (II) intel(0): [DRI2] VDPAU driver: va_gl Running vainfo yields: libva info: VA-API version 0.39.4 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_39 libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0 vainfo: VA-API version: 0.39 (libva 1.7.3) vainfo: Driver version: Intel i965 driver for Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile - 1.7.3 vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264StereoHigh : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Simple : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc VAProfileJPEGBaseline : VAEntrypointVLD I've read the relevant arch wiki articles (I believe), but cannot get a stable connection. I have extra/libva, extra/libva-intel-driver, and extra/libva-vdpau-driver installed and this seems like it should do it... what am I missing?

I'm streaming using OBS on Windows (QuickSync), pushing 20k bitrate to 2nd PC based on Linux (Debian Jessie 8.4.0, 64bit) via Gigabit Ethernet. The Debian system runs a minimal installation without X server (just CLI), where I compiled and installed nginx 1.10 with rtmp module. Debian Jessie specs: - AMD Athlon X2 64 4200 - 2GB RAM - Regular 7200 RPM hdd nginx.conf: root@streamer:~# cat /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf worker_processes 2; error_log logs/error.log debug; events { worker_connections 1024; } rtmp { server { listen 1935; chunk_size 4000; application transcode { live on; record off; exec avconv -re -i rtmp://localhost:1935/transcode/1234 -c:v libx264 -preset superfast -g 60 -keyint_min 30 -b:v 2800k -minrate 2800k -maxrate 2800k -s 1280x720 -r 30 -f flv rtmp://localhost:1935/live/1234; } application live { live on; record off; push rtmp://live-ams.twitch.tv/app/STREAMKEY; } } } My question: I can stream video using SUPERFAST preset without stutters, but when I go to VERYFAST, video on twitch is stopping every like 5 seconds for a while (not buffering). Is that Athlon not enough to stream video with veryfast - faster preset? This machine got literally only needed stuff on the CLI Debian just to stream, so I'm not losing any resources. I was quite sure I can push the quality as faster/veryfast with this rig. Could anyone elaborate on the topic?

I'm trying to launch live(not ondemand) RTMP stream from ubuntu, but i succeed only with RTSP stream through VLC vlc -vvv ./videos/test.mp4 --sout '#rtp{dst=192.168.8.106,port=1234,sdp=rtsp://192.168.8.106:1234/test.sdp}' (source here - https://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/ch04.html) and unfortunately it is not supported by any flash or html5 players. For RTMP streaming i found "how to" only for webcam case - http://www.jpsaman.org/vlc/rtmp Can someone help me with creating exact command for RTMP stream from this 2 examples please? Or is there other free linux software which can start stream RTMP stream ?

I am trying to download video from rtmp://flash.dce.harvard.edu/bounce/mp4:2015/01/14328/L01/14328-20140902-L01-4-h264-av1248-16x9-852x480.mp4. My college internet runs behing proxy, Is there a way I can set http/https proxy to rtmpdump?
