    Introduction

Collection of solutions for streaming via DASH, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over
HTTP, as of November 2014.
Recommended client: Chrome 38
Tool used for encoding live streams: FFmpeg
A popular video for testing is the Sintel Trailer.
Felix E. Klee
Wowza Streaming Server

VOD (Video On Demand)

Look at the examples.
Live

On Windows 7:


Create an application in Wowza: “live”


Stream:
> ffmpeg.exe -re -i sintel_trailer-480p.mp4 -c copy ^
-f flv rtmp://192.168.56.1/live/myStream


Check if stream is incoming in Incoming Streams.


Watch with the MPEG DASH test player.


nginx-rtmp

Here:


Linux


Home dir: /home/felix


Server domain: felix-xubuntu.test


Vod

Untested. Default Nginx seems to have support for VOD streaming. Maybe all
that’s needed is:


FLV files at different qualities. MP4 should also be possible.


DASH manifest, which should could be created manually.


Live


Download the source code for Nginx and for nginx-rtmp-module.


Optionally, to avoid possible conflicts, remove any existing installation
of Nginx from your system.


Build and install Nginx with RTMP streaming support according to the
instructions in README.md included in nginx-rtmp-module.


Install ffmpeg, possibly from source. If you later also want to stream to
Icecast, build as follows:
$ ./configure --enable-libtheora --enable-libvpx --enable-libvorbis \
--enable-libx264 --enable-avresample --enable-gpl --enable-libfaac \
--enable-nonfree


Start Nginx:
$ sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx

To stop Nginx:
$ sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -s stop


Make DASH configuration (see example file) available at:
/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf

Then reload configuration:
$ sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -s reload


Make client available at ~/www/live.html (see example file).


Install arut’s fork of dash.js that can do live streaming into:
$ git clone https://github.com/arut/dash.js.git dash.js-live
$ cd dash.js-live
$ git checkout live


Live recode and stream to Nginx:
$ ffmpeg -re -i sintel_trailer-480p.mp4 -c:v libx264 -profile:v \
baseline -c:a libfaac -ar 44100 -ac 2 -f flv \
rtmp://felix-xubuntu.test/myapp/my-stream


While the stream is playing, load in Chrome:


<http://felix-xubuntu.test/live.html>

Note, the DASH manifest describes the available streams. While streaming, it is
available at:
http://felix-xubuntu.test/dash/my-stream.mpd
Icecast

Good for live streaming of Ogg or WebM, but doesn’t create DASH streams.
