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).
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?
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!
I have a live input that will be receiving a stream for 4 hours; I don't want a 4 hour recording though, but rather 4 1-hour recordings. How can I accomplish this without stopping and restarting my input stream every hour? (because if I stop and restart my stream it disrupts viewers)
Heyo, are the audio and video tracks separate in the m3u8 file? No idea about this kind of stuff usually but that just popped into my head as I read your message
As of sometime yesterday, when Cloudflare Stream calls my webhook, it uses GET instead of POST. The GET request has no information about which video finished encoding. Help!
Good to hear that it might just be me. We haven't made any code or infrastructure changes, so I can't think of anything immediately. The webhook goes to a small CF Worker function and the logs show the incoming call as GET. I PUT a new webhook record (with the same URL) in case that would fix it, but it behaves the same. Any other things to check?
I ask question here and other places on Cloudflare, still no news on whether this will be implemented. Surely there are a few people wanting some kind of traction on stream (live playback) only with no recording please?
Does anyone have a clear documentation on how to use OBS to stream using WebRTC. I have read the developer docs, it does not explain how it can be done using OBS.
Hi everyone ! I'm the one who use Vimeo to host and streaming the video. However Vimeo got blocked from China and Indonesia. I am reseaching for the alternative solution. Then Is CloudFlare is a good solution to consider ? Is there any countries that blocked cloudflare?
Hey, atm only english and a max video length of 2 hours are supported in autogenerated captions (ai), when will other languages and lengths be available?
For Unreal Engine 4 and Unreal Engine 5. This is a quick tutorial to walk you though using Unreal Engine to get data through APIs and webservices. It makes use of the VaRest plugin that is free to download from the Unreal Engine Marketplace.
Thank you @mickiebetz , looking for french, spanish, german, portuguese, chinese and japanese mainly. Length-wise, I don't think we have anything longer than 2 hours, maybe 3 hours.
CF Stream SRT Outputs don't support ffmpeg params such as mode & latency? I am trying to send SRT data to a decoder and I must include these params for it to work. Via OBS it sends fine
