Solved VideoStreaming server setup

[banderas20]

Hi!

I want to develop a relative small project in an educational environment. Let's say I want to make my own "mini Netflix".

What I want to achieve is how to setup a media streaming server setup to deliver audio/video files to clients via streaming. Nothing very complex. Just a PoC to show it working and play with the related protocols (RTMP, etc...).

I have read about some servers like IceCast, Ampache, Subsonic,... and as for the client side I was thinking about VLC or browser based.

¿Any idea or tutorial where to start from?

Thanks!

Just use Jellyfin, it's opensource mediaserver software, you can either do a normal installation or run it in a container.

Linux | Jellyfin

Install on Linux.

jellyfin.org

Container | Jellyfin

Install as a container using Docker, Podman and others.

jellyfin.org

There are first and third party clients available for different devices and os's.

I didn't know about jellyfin. I'll give it a try.

Many thanks, @f33dm3bits

Good luck. I use Plex myself since the user experience is better but I also have Jellyfin running so I can keep up with the development of it.
