This project implements a simple server that receives live media from a broadcaster using the DASH-IF Live Media Ingest Protocol, stores them in a filesystem and then publishes them using MPEG DASH.
For a complete demo you need a live broadcaster. You can use the open source ABR Broadcaster.
Only Linux Debian/Ubuntu is supported. Please run the install_debian.sh script.
TODO: A Dockerfile to make it run anywhere.
Configure the broadcaster to push media to the URL http://ip-address:9999/receiver, e.g. for the ABR Broadcaster set the Ingest Base URL to this. Set Output Type to DASH and a suitable segment size, e.g. 5 seconds.
The receiver will store the received chunks and MPDs in a directory called data. MPDs are modified on the fly to ensure they are playable by the DASH player, e.g. type is set to static and mediaPresentationDuration is updated.
Apache errors are logged to /var/log/apache2/dashreceiver-error_log, please check it if you have problems.
The web interface can be accessed via http://ip-address:9999/. This implements a simple file browser to select which MPD to play in the dash.js player.
