dashboard copy publish url function

[ericxuyihao]

Dear all:

     There is a 'copy publish url' button on the dashboard as you can see the attachment.If you click it ,you will get a text  like  'rtmp://ip:80/WebRTCAppEE/{streamId}'.

     Here is my question:

    1. the stream is WebRTC stream  why the url is rtmp protocol ?

    2.I put the rtmp url into VCL player and found that it could not play. I am not sure the reason is either  our Internet blocked 80 port or there is something wrong with the url ?

Thanks

the URL is used for publishing the stream with rtmp.please take a look at this documentation you can use this URL with any application that can  stream RTMP for example OBS wirecast ffmpeg etc

@usamaHello,

As you can see from the picture stream id=zsw. Does it mean it is a rtmp stream ?  Or does it mean it can be converted to a rtmp stream ?

I put the rtmp url into VCL player and found that it could not play. I am not sure the reason is either  our Internet blocked 80 port or there is something wrong with the url ?

 we do not maintain RTMP playback support now so it is disabled by default in the most recent version. You can use different playback methods like WebRTC, HLS or Dash.
If you still want to enable the RTMP playback, you can enable it through the property file

nano /usr/local/antmedia/webapps/WebRTCAppEE/WEB-INF/red5-web.properties

add following line

settings.rtmpPlaybackEnabled=true

restart server

sudo systemctl restart antmedia 

and then it should work
