16. Streaming Examples
Various examples of streaming using NVS-25 will be described as follows. There are
three streaming protocols available on the NVS-25:
HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
Protocol, Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP), and Real Time Messaging
Protocol (RTMP)
.
16.1 HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) Protocol
Use NVS-25 to feed IP video stream to several
Apple computer clients
or tablet
computers such as iPad, iPhone or MacBook running Safari browser. HLS feeds video
and audio streams to the iOS devices.
Note that, depending on the settings chosen,
HLS latency may be up to 10 seconds in case of live events.
In order to configure HLS protocol, the user should first find the NVS-25 IP address on
the network using the IP finder that Datavideo provides. Once the NVS-25 IP address is
known, enter the IP address into the Safari web browser address bar on iPad or other
iOS devices. Please refer to the section on
How to find NVS-25 on an IP network
for
more information.
Enter the username and password to log into NVS-25 to gain access to the
Home
Page
of the web-based graphical user interface. Please refer to the section on
NVS-25 Login
using a Web-Based Graphical User Interface
for more information.
Click on the
Settings Tab
and change the protocol to HLS. Click on
Apply to select
the desired protocol.
Once the NVS-25 configuration progress bar displays 100% completion, click on the
Live tab and the video stream will be displayed on iPad or other iOS devices.
