Web browsers

Web browsers can read a stream from the server in several ways.

Web browsers and WebRTC

You can read a stream by using the WebRTC protocol by visiting the web page:

http://localhost:8889/mystream

See Embed streams in a website for instructions on how to embed the stream into an external website.

Web browsers and HLS

Web browsers can also read a stream with the HLS protocol. Latency is higher but there are less problems related to connectivity between server and clients, furthermore the server load can be balanced by using a common HTTP CDN (like Cloudflare or CloudFront), and this allows to handle an unlimited amount of readers. Visit the web page:

http://localhost:8888/mystream
