ESCRIPTION
The
stream
command is used to manage audio/video streams.
The
type
parameter only needs to be specified when creating a stream that will be used
solely for recording and not sent on any network. For that specific use, use
type=recorder
and simply specify the content sources.
(Makito
X HEVC only) To create an HEVC stream, specify
4
or
5
instead of
0
to
3
for the
videosrc
id.
When creating a stream you can specify a unique id to assign to it or let the system assign
one for you. You can also specify a name for the stream if needed. Most commands will
accept the stream id or name in order select the proper stream to manage.
When a stream has started, you may either pause or stop it. The main difference between
pausing and stopping a stream is that when a stream is paused, the configured still image
will be streamed instead of the configured video source. For more information, see
“Configuring Still Image Streaming”
