If you want a “capture/streamer in a box” component, there are several out there as others have mentioned. If you want to get down to the low-level control over it all, you’ll need to use DirectShow as thealliedhacker points out. The best way to use DirectShow in C# is through the DirectShow.Net library – it … Read more
No reason to work line by line (small chunks AND requires Python to find the line ends for you!-), just chunk it up in bigger chunks, e.g.: # from urllib2 import urlopen # Python 2 from urllib.request import urlopen # Python 3 response = urlopen(url) CHUNK = 16 * 1024 with open(file, ‘wb’) as f: … Read more
Here’s a (slightly outdated) summary of the current status of HTML5 Audio and Icecast streams. As you can see, a MP3 source only seems to work in Safari (and possibly IE9). You might need to experiment with some server-side transcoding (with ffmpeg or mencoder) to OGG Vorbis. I’m pretty sure I was able to get … Read more
I found three commands that helped me reduce the delay of live streams. The first command its very basic and straight forward, the second one it’s been combined with other options which might work differently on each environment and the last command it is a hacky version that I found in the documentation It was … Read more
It turns out that my initial code was basically correct; the only change required was to change request.ContentLength = clientRequest.InputStream.Length; to request.ContentLength = clientRequest.ContentLength; The former streams in the entire request to determine the content length; the latter merely checks the Content-Length header, which only requires that the headers have been sent in full. This … Read more
You can disable the ETAG middleware using the condition decorator. That will get your response to stream back over HTTP. You can confirm this with a command-line tool like curl. But it probably won’t be enough to get your browser to show the response as it streams. To encourage the browser to show the response … Read more
There is no need to involve any image classes, you can simply call WebClient.DownloadFile: string localFilename = @”c:\localpath\tofile.jpg”; using(WebClient client = new WebClient()) { client.DownloadFile(“http://www.example.com/image.jpg”, localFilename); } Update Since you will want to check whether the file exists and download the file if it does, it’s better to do this within the same request. So … Read more
Some JSON parsers do offer incremental (“streaming”) parser; for Java, at least following parsers from json.org page offer such an interface: Jackson (pull interface) Json-simple (SAX-style push interface) (in addition to Software Monkey’s parser referred to by another answer) Actually, it is kind of odd that so many JSON parsers do NOT offer this simple … Read more
Here’s a version without any temp files and the like (see here): def serve_pil_image(pil_img): img_io = StringIO() pil_img.save(img_io, ‘JPEG’, quality=70) img_io.seek(0) return send_file(img_io, mimetype=”image/jpeg”) To use in your code simply do @app.route(‘some/route/’) def serve_img(): img = Image.new(‘RGB’, …) return serve_pil_image(img)
Might be a little late with the answer but you need to supply the MIME type attribute in the video tag: type=”application/x-mpegURL”. The video tag I use for a 16:9 stream looks like this. <video width=”352″ height=”198″ controls> <source src=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19782389/playlist.m3u8″ type=”application/x-mpegURL”> </video>
