RTMP Server for Streaming

RTMP Live Streaming: The benefits you had not even thought of

Since 2005 we have been streaming live for sports, church, and other live events. We use to deploy our servers with Red5, which was one of the original RTMP Servers used on Live streaming, it was from the adobe Flash Media server, then everything changed, 2015 the red5 due to high resources on the smartphone batteries and other security issues, red5 was slowly abandoned and then in 2019 really stopped.
Along came Wowza RTMP Streaming Engine, which changed everything again and it is now the main RTMP used for live streaming media, on-demand, and live events.
RTMP Live Streaming has become very popular nowadays. And no wonder, because it helps people to join and communicate with each other, regardless of the country in which they live. In addition, this online method can be tremendously useful live streaming church services, broadcasting your services, streaming funerals, re-transmitting events in the life of the church, keeping people who need most at this time to feel connected to their church.
Below are the key benefits that live streaming offers all these days:

A chance to reach more Churchgoers.
Whether you plan to broadcast your rtmp server for streaming and Sunday services or make your special life event accessible to others, you will not be able to live without streaming. The technique will allow you to reach more people who cannot be present at the moment. This is very convenient for you and for them. The fact is that it is not always possible to attend an event due to coronavirus lock down. With live streaming, you can feel part of the event even if you are not physically there. But it’s not that! This amazing technique also allows you to invite as many people as you need to participate in the event, which is sometimes impossible when you invite people to your home.

The choice of content
If you think live streaming is only about audio and video, you’re wrong. This technique also allows you to select and show all the files to your audience, including articles, PowerPoint presentations, photos, images, and more. You can also chat with users who exchange messages and other files online. Your stream can be added on nearly every device, and Hosting Marketers is here to guide and help you step by step.

Simplicity and convenience

What you need is a web camera with a built-in microphone, encoder, and internet access, of course. If you already have this, you will need to focus on choosing the most reliable live streaming platform, which provides high-quality videos and images. By the way, you do not have to be a technology professional to know how to use the system. Just follow the instructions provided by the service to configure the program correctly.

That’s why you need to make sure your live stream is also accessible on smartphones and other mobile devices. Here’s how you will reach the target audience more effectively to achieve the desired result.

RTMP Server in the era of HTTP video streaming

Given the growing popularity and support of HTTP video streaming, it may be tempting to consider Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) streaming obsolete. But in many cases, working with RTMP server is still very meaningful. As soon as Macromedia first pronounced RTMP with Flash Player 6 in 2002, the brand new Macromedia Flash Communication Server MX (FCS) required to stream the evolving Flash Video (FLV) format, stream was live or VOD.

However, for FCS, licensing costs were high (up to $5,000 per server), and as a result, CDN costs were high than other proprietary streaming formats. Some manufacturers in the industry have called RTMP streaming costs a “Flash tax”. But Flash Player has been a ubiquitous introduction to desktop browsers for well over a decade, much larger than other plug-ins. Though, streaming server technology has traditionally been harder for web developers to implement, and simpler HTTP delivery has mostly been easier and more cost-effective. In 2003, Macromedia enabled Flash Player 7 to support HTTP delivery of FLV files, allowing integrators to use standard web server technology to deploy online video.

So in many ways, RTMP as a VOD transport delivery has not been a requirement for web video for more than a decade. As a video solution architect, I think of business requirements as the leader in most audio video decisions. And still, in 2014, RTMP is the de facto standard for the following use cases:

Publishing live streams from software/hardware encoders: Almost all streaming devices support RTMP to publish to CDN providers and streaming servers. Some native mobile applications also use RTMP libraries to publish live video from their mobile camera.

Near-instant search/playback: One of the benefits of RTMP streaming is its enhanced search capability. With real-time streaming, the player can search anywhere in the video with less buffering than HTTP delivery. However, to enjoy this feature, you need a Flash Player on your desktop and as such, it is not possible in mobile browsers. HTML5 browsers use HTTP domain requests to facilitate faster searching of VOD files.

Content Protection: RTMP Server can facilitate different levels of content protection, from obfuscation to true DRM. RTMP streams are not stored for playback on a desktop browser.

Adaptive Streaming: One of the preferred uses of RTMP is adaptive streaming playback, where we provide the video player with more bitrates and content resolutions, providing the best resolution at the current network speed. Some HTTP adaptive streaming technologies, such as HLS and MPEG-DASH, allow similar delivery, but RTMP may be more responsive to switching one bitrate to another. Unfortunately, there is no standard for HTTP adaptive streaming between HTML5 video-enabled browsers. As such, the Flash-based display of adaptive streaming is still a requirement for adaptive streaming.

Live Streaming Playback: While live streams do not need to be adaptive, compressed video segments apply the same principle to all live streaming playback. For desktop playback within the browser, virtually every live streaming event requires a video player that supports Flash-based rendering and RTMP playback. Apple Safari on iOS natively supports HLS, and luckily, all modern streaming servers, including the Wowza Streaming Engine, support RTMP and HLS compression.

The requirement for a Live Streaming Flash Player will only change if MPEG-DASH appears everywhere as Flash currently. If Internet Explorer 8, 9 and 10 support is required to install live streaming, then RTMP streaming is still required. Also, if you need a delay close to zero in a live stream, then HTTP streaming will almost certainly not meet your needs while RTMP is capable; HTTP mechanisms require that multiple packets be collected on the server before being sent to the video player.

In summary, if your video workflow involves live streaming or any kind of packaged video installation, RTMP is the key to a successful video experience. HTTP delivery has already replaced most Flash VOD installs on video, but HTTP video can’t handle all RTMP video use cases.
Another important setup on Red5 Server is the Python Hosting offered to all hosting customers, with python cpanel hosting the advantage is cheaper and easier to install and run python scripts on a normal hosting. With Python Hosting and rtmp server the customer can really start a webmasters and increase a number of usages to host python scripts or even video chat or live streaming.
As my university professor used to say the computers language for the next 50 years will be python, fast, easier with multiple modules which allow any developer to start an application running python is a few short hours.

Here is a simple list of comparison for WebRTC vs. RTMP

Here is a simple list of comparison for WebRTC vs. RTMP

RTMP is old technology. WebRTC is the newer technology.
Browser does not support RTMP which requires flash plugin to playback(so that it does not work on mobile at all). WebRTC is supported natively by browsers. No need to have any plugin.
RTMP latency is about 2–3 secs. WebRTC latency is less than 1 secs.
WebRTC is more complex than RTMP
There is a migration from RTMP solutions to WebRTC solutions.
There are solutions in the internet that supports RTMP, WebRTC as well. Here is a list of the items like Red5Pro, Wowza, Ant Media Server, Jitsi, etc.

The main value offered by RTMP is that throughout the streaming process a connection is maintained between the streaming server and the video player. This ensures smooth video streaming in spite of any fluctuations in bandwidth.

RTMP uses port 1935. The key differentiator between RTMP and Progressive Streaming services using HTTP is:

In RTMP there is a direct pointer from media server to flash player, and only data corresponding to that pointer is held by the flash player. There is no buffering/ storage of data on the computer
In progressive streaming a steady buffer is created, starting from point of playback

RTMP peaked in its popularity around 2012. Since then with the emergence of adaptive bitrate streaming, HTTP based streaming protocols have become much more popular. In adaptive bitrate streaming, each video stream comprises of multiple files at different resolutions which require different bitrates. A video player is sent the streaming file corresponding to its screen size and internet connection speed. This process ensures that if a viewer is initially viewing a high quality stream initially at high bandwidth, if the internet speed drops the video player would immediately switch to a lower resolution stream. One of the HTTP based protocols that does this efficiently is Apple’s video streaming protocol HLS.

Where RTMP server maintains a constant connection between media server and video player, progressive video players on HTTP rely on a buffer. This means that the video is initially downloaded, and it is this locally cached file that is played back. HTTP relies on this buffer to ensure smooth playback. However if the buffer load rate is slower than the playback rate then your stream will lag.

From point of view of security, RTMP Encrypted is somewhat flawed, as it is prone to Man-in-the-Middle Attacks. RTMP toolkit – RTMPDump can be used easily to download RTMP streams.

Hope this helps. For more info do check out this article that I’ve written on RTMP in relation to other streaming protocols.

Media servers red5 and wowza

Red5 is a media server created with Java language. It is a free open source software but recently a new version Red5 Pro came out developed by the same people, this new version supports streaming to mobiles, Android or iOS, which red5 does not. The Red5 Pro is commercial product and costs $55 per server.

A media server allows Flash based applications connect to it using Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP). The server can send and receive data to and from the connected users who have a flash player installed. The server also allows users to receive and publish streams. This permits video chat applications, live streaming and even ondemand video streaming.

Most common Video chat software’s are:
1- Avchat
2- Videowhisper
3- Prochatrooms
4- Gchats

For live streaming the necessary tool if you already have a server with red5 installed is an encoder, an encoder is the software that will connect your computer to the red5 server using the RTMP, which your server provider will give you.
1- FMLE, it is an free Adobe product and does a good job.
2- Wirecast, it is an expensive commercial product of very high quality, absolutely necessary if you starting a TV station.

Although red5 is a free product many people prefer to use Wowza Streaming Engine or Adobe Flash Media Server which are commercial software’s and can be quite expensive, the FMS costs $4500 per server. The reason is that the developers of red5 although have created a wonderful system did not spend much time with tutorials and instructions on how to install and manage a red5 server, for this reason if you searching for a red5 server we suggest you pick a web host which specializes on red5 servers and red5 shared hosting.

1- Red5 Servers relatively cheap red5 servers starting at $15 a month.
2- Red5 Hosting, Hosting Marketers, a web host for experienced webmasters, it is the oldest hosting company specialized on Video and media servers, they also offer Wowza Streaming Engine on its shared plans. They have a very experienced customer support and a reputation for going out of their way to help customers. They starting plan with Red5 enabled costs $9.95 a month. Most other red5 hosting companies are resellers of Hosting Marketers.

Red5 is a formidable media server, extremely flexible and has the advantage of being a free product with with many people working on developing it, for now the main version does not yet work with mobiles, if that is what you need we suggest that instead of using the Red5 Pro version to use the Wowza instead. Hosting Marketers also offers Wowza, in fact they even offer a 3 days free trial.
