On your website, you need to organize the possibility of online broadcasting through ip cameras. How to do it?

Question

CCTV

There is a website for the organization. There are built-in cameras in the hall. On the site it is necessary to organize the possibility of video broadcasting through these cameras. Help me please. I am a doctor, from Dushanbe. I don't understand anything about this myself. I asked a few here, but they didn't get it. Need help from a specialist.

Answer 1

The 'simplest' thing is to install ffmpeg on the server and use a simple one to publish the video stream in the required format
google ffmpeg webcam video streaming
for example here

Answer 2

The site will need nginx for distribution and ffmpeg for converting video streams (or a ready-made paid solution).
If the audience is large, then you are unlikely to cope with the forces of your server. You will need to use a broadcast platform like youtube or steam.
Google video streaming.
Medical skills are not enough. The task is quite difficult. It's unlikely to be free.

Answer 3

If you have IP cameras, then you need to set up a broadcast on them, and open access to this broadcast in the firewall.
On the site, just the video tag

Answer 5

Says the person who solved just such a problem.
The first thing you need to understand is whether it is legal to broadcast what is happening in the hall over the Internet. Here you need the opinion of a hospital lawyer.
Further, you need to understand that quite powerful resources are needed for such broadcasts - you need

• or have a hosted server that can provide a lot of outgoing traffic (1-2-4 megabits per client),
  
• or have your own thick channel with such indicators
  
• or use some ready-made streaming platform - YouTube, for example.
  

Having solved the first and second questions, you get different solutions, the simplest of which is the third. You take OBS-Studio, start broadcasting from it to YouTube (there are tons of such guides), and hook cameras into the broadcast through the plug-in.

Answer 6

All with the coming! From a legal point of view, I won’t tell you, but from a technical point of view, there is a good option https://rtsp.me/ru/ , you don’t need to raise your servers (computers with the above software) for broadcasting, plus one stream will be taken from the camera, which will already distribute repeater to simultaneously viewing clients. And in the code of your site in the right place it will be enough to insert the code generated by the site. From the requirements for organizing broadcasting:
1) external white IP
2) support for the IP camera rtsp protocol and H.264 compression codec
By default, this service is free, you do not need to pay anything. If you wish, you can use additional functionality, but it will be paid.

Answer 7

Hello.
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas everyone!
There may be many solutions, but, in any case, you will still need a specialist to set up the software, etc.
Below I will give one option, in my opinion one of the simple ones available, which does not require deep knowledge, but you need a separate PC (or server) for the NVR server role.
