H.264 Network Video Streaming Server 

NVS-25 

 

17 

 

such as 

Ustream

. To use a CDN, you may need to register for a free / trial account with 

additional costs first. The user just need to deliver one video stream to the CDN and that 

IP video feed will be shared among multiple viewers. This means less work for you and 

the NVS-25 as well. CDNs differ in tariffs and the way they operate so 

it is best to do 

your homework beforehand. 

 

The server on a WAN could also be your own 

Wowza

 

server

. Wowza server is another 

form of CDN solution, typically for large organizations, where you  brand the look and 

feel of the delivery network plus the video stream itself. 

Again it is best to do your 

homework beforehand.

 

 

Stream Server Selection 

This pull-down menu allows you to either select one of three transmission protocols 

[HLS, RTSP (TCP, HTTP), RTMP (Local, Publish)] or switch off the current video stream. 

The default is stream off.

 

 

NOTE:

 All settings applied will not be in effect unless the 

Apply 

button has been clicked 

and the NVS-25 configuration progress bar indicates 100% completion.

 

 

The user can also enable “

Auto stream at startup

” so that the original settings persist 

through the power cycle process.

 

 

RTMP Publish URL 

Four text bars will appear  when 

RTMP Publish

 is selected under the 

Stream Server 

Selection 

Option.  Enter the corresponding information to stream your video to your 

Content Delivery Network.   

 

 

RTMP URL:

  Enter the RTMP Publish URL for your WAN-based server or 

CDN account 

 

RTMP Stream:

 Name of the streaming video 

 

RTMP Username:

 Username of CDN account 

 

RTMP Password:

 Password of CDN account 

 

If you wish to view the RTMP stream directly from NVS-25 on the local area network 

(LAN) using the Live option, select 

RTMP Local

 option.
