Problem Playing Video on Web
I’m testing EMS with our software and I have a problem when play video on web. details:
– I have a h264 rtsp stream : “rtsp://10.0.1.29:554/15aa154d-995c-4b70-a06e-6c4bda65b544”. It can be played on VLC player.
– I use command: “pullstream uri=rtsp://10.0.1.29:554/15aa154d-995c-4b70-a06e-6c4bda65b544 localstreamname=hieu” . It returns successfully.
– I can play stream: “rtsp://10.0.1.29:5544/hieu” on VLC player. But when I access web page: “http://10.0.1.29:8888/demo/evowsvideo.html” I have some results:
+ video can’t be played on IE 11 and firefox 44
+ video can be played on chrome 48. but the video play not smoothly. It plays then stops then plays then stops and so on.
Can you show me what happened in this situation: the wrong input? or I have the wrong step? or this is a limitation of EMS?

Hi,
It seems that there is indeed an issue with html5 playback on FF44, we are currently looking at that. As for IE11, are you using Windows 8 or higher? IE11 on Windows 7 does not support html5 playback.
As for Chrome 48, are you experiencing either: #1, “fast forwarded” video that stops and then starts again with the faster-than-normal-playback behaviour? Or #2, is it more like the video just plays with normal speed and then pauses for a few seconds and then starts again? Is there a loading animation?
If it is #1, then this is probably due to the source stream reporting a higher frame rate than what it actually produces. What source or stream broadcaster are you using? If it is #2, do you see a very slow playback if you use VLC?
Cheers
