<summary>Live video cameras (HLS / RTMP)</summary>
|
||||
|
||||
CCTV sources with `"feedType": "hls"` play as continuous video instead of
|
||||
refreshed stills. The server owns the stream: it keeps one upstream session
|
||||
per active camera, serves the browser a locally generated playlist, and the
|
||||
client plays it through hls.js. Two upstream strategies, chosen by URL:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`.m3u8` upstreams** are pulled directly in Node — no extra dependencies.
|
||||
- **RTMP and other stream URLs** go through **ffmpeg** (`-c copy`, no
|
||||
re-encode), which is optional: without it those cameras fall back to the
|
||||
stills path and everything else is unchanged. If you self-host in Docker,
|
||||
add `ffmpeg` to your image.
|
||||
|
||||
The DelDOT Delaware pack is the working example — every `Active` camera in
|
||||
DelDOT's public catalog registers with its `rtmpt://video.deldot.gov:80/…`
|
||||
stream (the same stream as `rtmp://…:1935`, tunneled over HTTP, so it works
|
||||
where port 1935 is blocked). `CCTV_DELDOT_ENABLED=0` turns the pack off.
|
||||
|
||||
Some agencies restart their streams on a timer or run encoders whose clock
|
||||
lags real time (DelDOT does both). The pipeline absorbs that automatically —
|
||||
a brief hitch at a restart, and a playback-rate governor that holds the
|
||||
stream a few seconds behind live so it never starves. Nothing to configure.
