Description

crtmpserver can be cross compiled using the PiBox toolchain and staging tree. Convert the build artifacts into an opkg for installation.

For testing, try this url to get an FLV sample:
http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/export/944/trunk/html5/test/files/bunny.flv

Just imported the initial cross-compilation build system. Packaging is not implemented yet, however.

Cleaned up opkg target to build what I think is a correct installation of crtmpserver. Added opkg-clean target as well.

opkg has not been tested on target yet.

Packaging verified working on target.

Runtime has not been tested on target yet.

Created custom config file that allows crtmpserver to start up without ssl keys. Startup appears okay but its
unclear if feeding it data or retrieving data from it work correctly. That's still to be tested.

To test server:
  1. Start server: crtmpserver /etc/crtmpserver.lua
    3 See http://wiki.rtmpd.com/documentation#testing_sample_application

This url provides a Flash application:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2918563/flvplayback.swf

Near the bottom right there is a URL to use to connect. I may be able to set this to the target box and run the flvplayback.swf on the host to test the platform. This doesn't work via a proxy but may work on the local LAN.

The crtmpserver opkg was installed and successfully tested by adding the bunny.flv (Big Buck Bunny) video to its media folder, then using the crtmpserver flvplayback.swf sample application, pointing it at the crtmpserver on PiBox.

Video playback was smooth though audio was not. This is probably sufficient for streaming the webcam, which is all that's required initially of crtmpserver (streaming movie files would be icing on the cake for that at the moment).

All updates are pushed to the crtmpserver upstream project on gitorious.

This issue can be closed.
