RTSP and HTTP camera stream server


This is an streamer feed from
- an Video4Linux device that support H264, HEVC, JPEG, VP8 or VP9 capture.
- an ALSA device that support PCM S16BE, S16LE, S32BE or S32LE

The RTSP server supports
- RTP/UDP unicast
- RTP/UDP multicast
- RTP/TCP
- RTP/RTSP/HTTP

The HTTP server supports (available using -S option for capture format that
could be muxed in Transport Stream)
- HLS
- MPEG-DASH

To give the snap access to camera and audio capturing, use the following commands

sudo snap connect v4l2rtspserver:camera

sudo snap connect v4l2rtspserver:alsa

Now you can start the daemon with

sudo snap start --enable v4l2rtspserver

Thre snap also ships a command to be used from CLI in case you do not want to
use the server, this command is called v4l2rtspserver.manual

For more information see the upstream README at https://github.com/mpromonet/v4l2rtspserver
