This folder contains static HTTP and JS content that is embedded into the application during build. An external developer can use it as a basis for integrating go2rtc into their project or for developing a custom web interface for go2rtc.

HTTP API

www/stream.html - universal viewer with support params in URL:

  • multiple streams on page src=camera1&src=camera2...
  • stream technology autoselection mode=webrtc,webrtc/tcp,mse,hls,mp4,mjpeg
  • stream technology comparison src=camera1&mode=webrtc&mode=mse&mode=mp4
  • player width setting in pixels width=320px or percents width=50%

www/webrtc.html - WebRTC viewer with support two way audio and params in URL:

  • media=video+audio - simple viewer
  • media=video+audio+microphone - two way audio from camera
  • media=camera+microphone - stream from browser
  • media=display+speaker - stream from desktop

JavaScript API

  • You can write your viewer from the scratch
  • You can extend the built-in viewer - www/video-rtc.js
  • Check example - www/video-stream.js
  • Check example - https://github.com/AlexxIT/WebRTC

video-rtc.js features:

  • support technologies:
    • WebRTC over UDP or TCP
    • MSE or HLS or MP4 or MJPEG over WebSocket

    • codecs inside your stream
    • current browser capabilities

  3. WebRTC better than MSE, than HLS, than MJPEG
