No youtube live video

Using Restreamer on Virtualbox Ubuntu server (ubuntu-24.04.1-live-server-amd64), restreamer-v2.12.0 (datarhei-core v16.16.0 (linux/amd64) - gentle-limit-3866) Network card in Virtualbox configured as Bridge, so Ubuntu gets local ip (192.168.5.132) from router the same way like my desktop pc

Source: Using Hikvision IP camera DS-2DE7A825IW-AEB(T5) (192.168.5.64) Camera config: Mainstream Videotype: Video Stream Resolution: 3840*2160 Bitrate VBR Video Quality: Higest Video Frame Rate(fps): 1 Max. Bit Rate 16384 Average Bit Rate 8192 Video Encoding H.264 H.264+ Off Profile High I-Frame Interval 50 SVC Off Smoothing 50

Hikvision camera configured in Restreamer via RTSP, using passthrough method, no audio Videostream from hikvision camera in Reastreamer ui, plays fine, CPU load 0-2%

Destination: YouTube Live Delivering mode HLS

Source & Encoding Source HLS (msmfs)

Select your encoding setting: passthrough (copy)

No videostream in youtube studio

For your resolution (4K / 2160p) of your camera you should provide a "Video Frame Rate" of 30 (currently you have 1) and an "I-Frame Interval" of 60. The recommended bitrate for that resolution is 30000 kbit/s (see https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2853702).

Also you should add an audio stream and try the RTMP delivery method. The HLS delivery is still experimental.

Hi @ioppermann Thanks for your quick response!

Camera doesn't support 30 or 60 fps, only 25 fps max

Added an audio in Restreamer with white noise and it works both with HLS and RTMP! So, i got the working setup: Settings in hikvision admin panel: videostream only (no audio) resolution 4k, 10fps, higest video quality, VBR with 8192, encoding H264, I-frame 20, H264+ is off, SVC off

Also ok with uploaded mp3 looped sound So the problem was in no sound setup.

Now trying to reduce traffic, since i have an almost static picture (nature)

Thank you!

ioppermann commented 2 months ago

If you want to reduce traffic, then only reducing the bit rate will help. You can even set the FPS to 25.

saritikon commented 2 months ago

Yes, i changed setting back to 25 fps and traffic remains same. Thank you! And with bitrate 2048 i got near 1,850 kbit/s

By the way, i noticed that here https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2853702 a H265 codec is seem to supported and widely used by youtube? So any chance for support H265 in Restreamer?

ioppermann commented 2 months ago

We're working on passthrough support for other codecs as well.
