@kevingodell/node-red-mp4frag

A Node-RED node used for parsing fragmented mp4 video from ffmpeg.

• designed to live stream mp4 video via http or socket.io
• video can be viewed in modern browsers using HLS.js
• video can be viewed in Safari browser using native HLS
• compatible with @kevingodell/node-red-ui-mp4frag

Expectations:

• You should have working knowledge of ffmpeg on the command line.
• Input MP4 video should be properly fragmented so that it is compatible.
• When using ffmpeg, set -movflags +frag_keyframe+empty_moov+default_base_moof.
• If you have difficulties making it work, please open a new discussion and tag me @kevinGodell.
• Do not send private messages asking for help because that will not benefit others with similar issues.

Installation:

• go to the correct directory, usually ~/.node-red

cd ~/.node-red

• using npm

npm install @kevingodell/node-red-mp4frag

• reboot the node-red server
