send stream to other pc connected via router #142

Closed loopdude closed 5 years ago

loopdude commented 6 years ago

I am setting up a sports stream using ez wifibroadcast and some raspberrys (and open broadcaster studio). I want to use multiple cams in a network connected via router which is the dhcp server. Grabbing the stream when the raspberry has the ethernet hotspot activated works perfect.

But how would I configure ezwifibroadcast to send the stream to a specific pc on the ethernet over a router? Would have to do this on multiple raspberrys. I know I have to deactivate the hotspot so the raspberry acts as a client. So the real question is how change the stream command (from gstreamer maybe??)? I dont know where I would have to do this. My guess would be to login to the raspberry and run some command. Is this correct?

Help very appreciated! Thanks in advance Jason

You might want to experiment with multicasts. Make each wifibroadcast to send it's stream to ie. 239.0.0.1-x. Then use udp://@239.0.0.1-x:port_number for inputs in OBS. In a simple lan it should 'just' work.

If not, just set a static IP address for the reciever and change .profile script so that the port numbers are unique and the target IP reflects the recievers' address.

thanks for the reply I'll probably try your solution as it might be the cleanest.

after some research I found a way to solve my problem. so if anybody else is looking for a similar solution, here's what I did:

I created a script with following: sudo su ionice -c 1 -n 4 nice -n -5 cat /root/videofifo2 | nice -n -5 gst-launch-1.0 -v fdsrc ! h264parse ! rtph264pay ! "application/x-rtp,payload=(int)103,clock-rate=(int)90000" ! udpsink host=[YOUR DESTINATION IP] port=[YOUR DESTINATION PORT] &

and just simply call this script from rc.local.

next step is to test how the broadcast reacts to multiple setups. single setup worked like a charm.
