Testing the video stream from a webcam

We will test the broadcast of the video stream from a browser with a connected webcam

Use these instructions for quick installation and configuration of the server. In addition to that, you can connect to our demo server demo.flashphoner.com to perform the tests. For testing, we use a virtual camera that plays a video clip.

Test plan

  1. Connect to WCS server
  2. Start broadcasting the video stream from the webcam in the Google Chrome browser
  3. Start playback of the broadcast stream

Above, we tested the operation of broadcasting a video stream from a web camera using the Google Chrome browser. Similarly, streaming video from a webcam using WCS works in other browsers and mobile applications for Android and iOS.
