Streaming_from_an_RTMP_Live_Encoder

Streaming video from a professional video capture device (Live Encoder) over RTMP

Web Call Server receives an RTMP video stream from a Live Encoder device or software in H.264 and AAC codecs and distributes this video stream to browsers and mobile devices

For online broadcasts, special hardware or software video capture devices (Live Encoder) are often used. This software or device captures the video stream and sends to the server via RTMP for further relay. Popular software encoders include OBS Studio, Flash Media Live Encoder and Wirecast. You can install and try them for free. In addition, there are many hardware manufacturers providing low-cost boxed solutions for RTMP video broadcasting.

  1. The encoder establishes a connection to the WCS server via RTMP and sends a video stream in H.264 + AAC format using the standard RTMP publish function call
  2. The browser accesses the WCS server and requests playback of the video stream.
  3. The WCS server transmits the video stream received from the encoder. Depending on the browser, one of the following protocols can be used for playback: WebRTC, Flash, MSE, Websocket
