Operations Questions
Evostream resides in /var/evostreamms
Inside the directory (/var/evostreamms/media/movies) I’ve loaded two mp4’s and a playlist file:
atom_age_vampire.mp4
doa.mp4
moviePlaylist.lst
The moviePlaylist.lst file is scripted as follows:
#sourceOffset, duration, localStreamName
0,-1,atom_age_vampire.mp4
0,-1,doa.mp4
Question 01 – I have a website where I would like to stream my content from. This is the URL of the site: http://www.sagachannel.com
On the homepage of the site is a player from which I would like to stream the movies. What I am aiming to do I have several clients log onto the site and watch the content as it is being broadcast from the playlist. In other words, they will be watching the same mp4 play in real time, not unlike watching a television program. My question is this: How do I implement the rtmp line to stream to this site?
Question 02 – The “EMS-User-Guide.pdf” shows an example for the playlist file on page 51 which I used as an example to create my own. Is there a more sophisticated way to set up a playlist, say for instance with timestamps: 00:02:00 Also, how could I incorporate timezones? Can I create several playlist files for different timezones?
Question 03 – The primary reason I want to use Evostream is to stream content to iOS, Android, and other mobile devices. It seems that iOS protocol is “HLS”. Do I need to set up streaming seperate for HLS and RTP? How would this be done?
