Stream content using HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP
Stream content using HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP
The easiest way to deliver your content to your viewers is to give them the live broadcast URL of the channel.
You can get that using the Admin panel. A separate URL exists for each channel you stream.
The format of the URL depends on the method you used to access Pearl Mini, which can be done though
network discovery using Pearl's serial number or IP address. Pearl Mini must be accessible on the viewer's LAN
for them to access and view the stream using serial discovery.
If HTTPS is configured for Pearl Mini, the live broadcast URL will start with
https
instead of
http
.
If Pearl Mini is behind a firewall and you want to share a stream with remote viewers, you need to
set up port forwarding on your network. Consult with your network administrator.
