unifiedstreaming/vod2live repository overview

⁠VOD2Live demo

Simple demo showing off Remix VOD2Live. Uses a modified Unified Origin image which includes processing of input SMIL playlists to produce a Remix mp4 and creating a VOD2Live .isml for streaming.

⁠Repo structure

The repository should contain at least:

• docker/ directory with a subdirectory for each Docker image being built
• smils/ directory containing SMIL file(s) which will be turned in to VOD2Live channels
• docker-compose.yaml
• README.md explaining how to use the project

⁠Usage

Add, or edit, SMIL files in smils/ directory.

Set your license key (must include Remix and VOD2Live functionality) with export UspLicenseKey=<KEY>. If you don't already have a license but want to evaluate Remix VOD2Live, please contact [email protected]⁠.

Start with docker-compose up -d.

View logs with docker-compose logs. This should show output from Remix and mp4split preparing the VOD2Live channel, and then the webserver starting up:

Access demo page at http://localhost/ (replace localhost with address if not running locally). By default this will start playing the smils/unified-learning.smil channel.

If you want a different playlist to be used, you can change this in docker/origin/index.html.
