Streaming your video

[djoris]

You can grab the video from your Skycontroller (or Disco?) using: http://SC2:7711/video (this is a referrer file, linking to 192.168.53.1:55004 (H264 stream) )

command to stream to YouTube: ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc -rtsp_transport http -i rtsp://DISCO-OR-ZEROTIER-ADDRESS:55004 -tune zerolatency -vcodec libx264 -t 12:00:00 -pix_fmt + -c:v copy -c:a aac -strict experimental -f flv rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/STREAM-NAME

ip_sc2="a.b.c.d" # either SC2 zerotier IP or USB Ethernet IP

# required to trigger video streaming to my IP
curl http://${ip_sc2}:7711/video 2>/dev/null | sed "s/addr:192.168.53.1/${ip_sc2}/g" >/tmp/video.sdp

ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc -protocol_whitelist file,rtp,udp -i /tmp/video.sdp -vcodec h264 -t 12:00:00 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac -preset ultrafast -b:v 1000k -bufsize 512k -vf scale=854:480 -g 60 -f flv rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/abcd-abcd-abcd-abcd

alternative is to stream from your phone/tablet. Easier, but doubles the data usage on your mobile (and heavier on the processor as well). Louis Mcnair uses https://obsproject.com/ to mix streams.

can you stream from the Disco instead of SC? That would save on latency and bandwith https://developer.parrot.com/blog/2016/play-bebop-stream-on-vlc/ how to trigger the stream? Experimenting with SC2 stream in VLC for windows shows distortion, probably not enough buffer. Also, only one stream at a time seems to work?

Video stream uses RTP H264. You have to trigger the video stream then disco starts UDP streaming from DISCO_IP:5004 to YOUR_IP:55004.

To trigger the video you can use this example: https://github.com/hybridgroup/node-bebop/blob/master/examples/video.js#L13 but you have to modify this parametres: https://github.com/hybridgroup/node-bebop/blob/master/lib/bebop.js#L266 adding this:

      "arstream2_client_stream_port": 55004, 
      "arstream2_client_control_port": 55005, 
      "arstream2_supported_metadata_version": 1, 

So you sending your controller info to discovery port 444444 with stream ports and then you trigger the video using VideoEnable command. After this operation disco starts pushing data over UDP. Remember to turn off your local firewall :)

The next step is to check what the :7711/video endpoint on SC2 is doing. I'll check it with wireshark. It is possible that it triggers the video in a different way than described above.
