live video streaming experiments with node.
This project is a experimental test suite trialing a variety of live video streaming approaches using ffmpeg and node.
This project was developed on linux mint 18.1 (ubuntu). The project takes a reference on the node module node-canvas which in turn requires the cairo imaging library. The following should be installed prior to running.
sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev libjpeg8-dev libpango1.0-dev libgif-dev build-essential g++
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
or if not found, the PPA's are:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
The following will start a video server demo on http://localhost:5000
npm start
