First, I presume that you are referring to the experimental “live555HLSProxy” application that I announced a few days ago. This has nothing to do with the separate, longstanding “LIVE555 Proxy Server” application, which proxies a back-end RTSP server to (one or more) front-end RTSP clients.
“live555HLSProxy” is completely different. It reads from (a single) back-end RTSP server, and writes HLS chunks (and a HLS playlist) into a directory that is intended to be used by a separate (HTTP/HTTPS) web server. > On Dec 31, 2019, at 7:39 AM, dan_desjardins <dan.desjard...@videstra.com> > wrote: > > With HLS it would seem that chunks will need to be created regardless of the > presence of a back-end connection or not, thus there would always be a > connection to the originating device. Is this a correct assumption? I’m not sure what you mean by this question. If the ‘back-end’ RTSP stream (the one that you specify on the command line) exists, then “live555HLSProxy” will keep reading from it, and writing HLS chunks (and a HLS playlist). But rather than just speculating about this application, why don’t you just try running it yourself? It comes with the latest version of the “LIVE555 Streaming Media” code.
