Can I Use G Web Development to Do Live Stream in the Form of Video and Audio?

Issue Details

I want to use G Web Development to perform a live stream in the form of video and audio. Is it possible?

Solution

It is possible to have webcam content being shown in G Web for monitoring purposes. Different protocols used by the webcam require different approaches. For example, the webcam shown in this link is from a webcam where it publishes different pictures every second so it looks like it is moving. Another approach is where the webcam provides a video stream via an HTTP URL. In G web, using iframe + the HTTP URL will do the job. Last but not least if the end-user is using RTSP protocol, another popular protocol. RTSP cannot be viewed in the browser directly (browser limitation). An immediate server is needed to convert the RTSP to a compatible protocol. When dealing with RTSP, need to use a VLC media player to convert the RTSP to HTTP. Once you get the HTTP, use iframe in G Web to enable viewing the webcam image in the browser via G Web.
