8.2.2.6 RTMP

Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) was initially a proprietary protocol for streaming audio, video and data over the Internet, between a Flash player and a server. RTMP is a TCP-based protocol which maintains persistent connections and allows low-latency communication. It can realize the function of live broadcast so that customers can log in to the camera wherever there is a network.



Note:
  • For YouTube live broadcast, if you use a newly created account to live broadcast, you need to wait for 24hrs to activate the account for using live function.
  • For RTMP, since G.711 is not available for YouTube, so you can only play video from Milesight Network Camera with H.264 video coding and AAC audio coding on YouTube.
  • Server Address in Network Camera RTMP interface needs to be filled with the format: rtmp://< Server URL >/< Stream key >, remember it needs ’/’to connect between < Server URL > and < Stream key >.
  • RTMP function is only supported on MS-Cxxxx-PA models.
