ioBroker.rtspstream

rtsp Adapter for ioBroker

Case Study

This adapter is currently in "pre-Alpha"-State. It should be seen as a "case Study" to see if this Adapter is needed and what features are needed. If you are looking for some features, please post them either in the forum or as an issue on github. It is also not yet sure if the adapter will be developed up to a stable state or just will be rejected...

Installation

Currently the adapter only Supports linux. To use this adapter, you first need to install ffmpeg:

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

Then install the adapter with the "cat" from github (Install from own url). Enter the stream url, for example (highway stream):

rtsp://170.93.143.139/rtplive/470011e600ef003a004ee33696235daa

Enter a port and save configuration.

Multiple Streams are supported, please use different ports for all streams for both ports!

Using the Adapter

Access the stream

The adapter opens a webserver which provides you with the right js and html. Just open:

http://ip.of.your.iobroker:port
Example:
http://192.168.1.100:8084

The port is the port you have been storing in the configuration of the Adapter. You can use this address in a iframe of your VIS-Project.

Stop streaming

The adapter creates a state "rtspstream.0.[Streamname].startStream". Set it to false will stop streaming and eating your cpu.

Known Problems

• Currently only http is supported
• Only works on Linux with ffmpeg installed (maybe will try to include autoinstaller and windows)
• I have no clue if this works with other cameras than the highway-camera, please report ;)
