Dear Cloudflare Team,

Do you have any solution for this case? I need to store it.

I'm creating a livestream service, my user needs to watch later.

you can record the video client-side and then upload it once the user stops recording.

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:34 AM

maybe this can help.

it'sIn that case, the file size will be very large, and it will be very inconvenient for the live streamers to wait for the upload

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:35 AM

I made an app once that streamed, recorded and send blobs of the video to the server. So it didn't need to wait for the video to complete in order to upload it.

William_Delbert_GannOP•6/27/24, 1:36 AM

However, that is a good suggestion to solve this problem.

William_Delbert_GannOP•6/27/24, 1:36 AM

will you upload to R2 ?

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:37 AM

yes

William_Delbert_GannOP•6/27/24, 1:37 AM

Can you share with me that code

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:38 AM

sorry i misunderstood your question. i thought you asked if im currently using R2.

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:39 AM

the old code was a MEAN stack app.

William_Delbert_GannOP•6/27/24, 1:41 AM

what will you do with ffmpeg.wasm?

William_Delbert_GannOP•6/27/24, 1:42 AM

will it record video from webcam and transcode to mp4 ?

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:51 AM

actually, you dont need ffmpeg on frontend. im looking at the old code and it just grabs blops and sends them to backend.

WWilliam_Delbert_Gann will it record video from webcam and transcode to mp4 ?

Gagan Suie•6/27/24, 1:59 AM

i dont mean to shill, but you can use the streaming platform i built to get help on these types of issues (if someone in this discord is available to help of course). It has webrtc streaming to share screen, audio and chat. https://mage.stream

Hi All, Cloudflare stream Is the current status okay? The videos are queued, so it's taking more than 5 minutes to process.

Shelby•6/28/24, 1:08 AM

Hi team, do Live Inputs or Outputs expose any mechanism to add captions? The docs state that a video must be uploaded prior to attaching a caption, so I assume that the captioning REST endpoints only apply to Videos and not Live Inputs or Outputs. I understand that the newly added automatic caption generation feature does not apply to Live streams, so failing that, is there any other way to attach captions to a Live stream, assuming the captions themselves are generated elsewhere?

Fabrizio•6/28/24, 11:20 AM

Hello. We at line-21.com are happily using Cloudflare streams. I have a question, if I send a live stream through SRT and include a caption track, is it included in the RTMP out? Or actually in any output?

Orlando•6/28/24, 2:07 PM

hi team, http/3 needs to be configured or is it out of the box?

Chaitanya•6/29/24, 3:31 AM

@Fabrizio Are you capturing stream health through any cloudflare API? If yes please advise .if not how you are doing stream health?

devtails•6/29/24, 4:24 AM

I'm running into issues with WebRTC on Cloudflare Stream. I'm using the example WHIP and WHEP clients from the docs here. I'm running into cases where the connection is made and audio/video tracks are detected but then the video element I'm attaching it to doesn't show the livestream.

Other times it works perfectly, so I'm wondering if this is some kind of issue on Cloudflare's end

Gagan Suie•7/1/24, 1:12 AM

There's a lot of limitations in browsers. Make sure the video element is
-muted
-auto play is set to true

The reason this probably happens is browsers require you to interact with the page before it starts playing a video with volume.

There used to be hacks around this but I think they're patched (setting an iframe to autoplay muted sound)

Some big websites like Twitch can get around this if they're frequently visited.

Hello Gyus, Is there any API to fetch this information under Input status section?

Chaitanya•7/2/24, 1:17 PM

Is this possible to recive above information through webhooks ? if yes, Please advise

chris•7/4/24, 8:48 AM

Hi, is it possible to use the pay per bitrate rate but auto switch it to the minutes stored rate to avoid cost spikes? I ask because in general there is low stream amount - views, but occasionally a lot (100-1000 playbacks in a week).

chris•7/4/24, 8:55 AM

I have to pay currently $10 a month, and really like the backend and look of the CF player, but when I (or other potential customers) compare it to the Vimeo base tier it is just about $5 the month with a weekly upload limit. Ideally, I would have a free tier and video Advertisements (with revenue share).

Did you ever get an answer? I too only want to live stream or live playback with no need for stream recordings. I would be happy to pay $5.00 per month similar to the monthly pre-paid minimum storage charge. And still pay the other post-paid streaming minutes viewed costs. If only Cloudflare could give us a choice?

Nino N.•7/5/24, 6:47 PM

Make the container (video player) aspect ratio match the video
Re-encode video to to match your containers aspect ratio - e.g. This wil involve chopping off part of the video frame

Rrenan right way to deal with this is to enable automatic deletion also

TC25•7/6/24, 1:28 PM

Sadly, automatic minimum deletion only occurs at 30 days or more and can't be set to less than this. If it was say possible for '0' days deletion, could that possibly set to 'null' recording mode instead of 'automatic' in the API/JSON? As the internet is mostly reliable, connections from my origin server to the Cloudflare CDN do break for whatever reason time to time. When that occurs, the Cloudflare stream and record stops, and Cloudflare will report that my minimum 1,000 minute storage is full and won't resume live streaming when the internet connection restores. Then I have to tediously delete the un-needed recorded stream video file from the Cloudflare Dashboard before I can restore live streaming. I do not see why I would have to pay a monthly fee for 30 days storage when I have no use for any storage at all. I have yet to have a stream last more than 10 days before it gets interrupted and my storage reports as full. I have never seen how automatic deletion works in the live stream context. Surely Cloudflare Developers are aware, as requests to stream only with no recording were put in around 2 years ago elsewhere with mentions of 'coming soon', still waiting.

Hi everyone!
I’m running into a strange issue. For the m3u8 file of a stream link. We parse the m3u8 file to provide the different resolutions to our client. The links provided to the different resolutions does not include any audio in the video. Any ideas how we can fix this? Thanks in advance!
