## STREAM RELAYING LOCAL ##
## For more info please visit: https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module/wiki/Directives#relay ##
## pull url [key=value]* # Creates pull relay. A stream is pulled from remote machine and becomes available locally. ##
## URL Syntax: [rtmp://]host[:port][/app[/playpath]] ##
# pull rtmp://cdn.example.com/live/ch?id=1234 name=channel_a; # This is an example. Visit above url for more info.
# session_relay off; # on|off. On=relay is destroyed when connection is closed. Off=relay is destroyed when stream is closed. Default=off.
## Push has the same syntax as pull. Unlike pull, push directive publishes stream to remote server. ##
## This will push the stream from current application to these two applications to create a hls and/or dash stream automatically. ##
push rtmp://localhost/hls; # Remember to create the app hls! Disable it if you use transcoding using variable bitrates.
push rtmp://localhost/dash; # Remember to create the app dash! It is safe to disable this if you're not interested in using Dash.
## STREAM RELAYING TO EXTERNAL PARTY'S ##
## Push can also be used to re-stream your stream to other platforms. You can do this directly or use an additional application for this. ##
## Using an additional local application allows you to set up variables if you prefer. Or you can choose to push to 3rd party directly. ##
## YOUTUBE PUSH OPTIONS ##
# push rmtp://localhost/youtube; # Uncomment this to use application on localhost (MUST BE SPECIFIED). OR simply use the following line:
# push rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/YOUR-LIVE-STREAM-KEY; # Your RTMP stream will be pushed as it is to Youtube as an RTMP stream.
# TWITCH PUSH OPTIONS ##
# push rmtp://localhost/twitch; # Uncomment this to use application on localhost (MUST BE SPECIFIED). OR simply use the following line:
# push rtmp://live-ams.twitch.tv/app/live_YOUR-LIVE-STREAM-KEY; # Your RTMP stream will be pushed as it is to Twitch as an RTMP stream.
}
## HLS APPLICATION ##
application hls { # (See line 121) We enabled pushing stream from 'live' application to 'hls' we need to define it of course.
live on; # on|off. Enables this application and allowing live streaming to it. Default=on.
hls on; # on|off. Toggles HLS on or off for this application.
hls_type live; # live|event. Live plays from the current live position. Event plays from the start of the playlist. Default=live.
hls_path /tmp/hls; # Location to store the video fragment files. Will be created if it doesn't exist.
hls_fragment 5s; # Sets HLS fragment length in seconds or minutes. Default=5s.
hls_playlist_length 30s; # Sets HLS playlist length in seconds or minutes. Default=30s.

hls_continuous off; # on|off. In this mode HLS sequence number is started from where it stopped last time. Old fragments are kept. Default=off.
hls_nested on; # on|off. In this mode a subdirectory of hls_path is created for each stream. Default=off.
hls_cleanup on; # on|off. Nginx cache manager process removes old HLS fragments and playlist files from hls_path. Default=on.
hls_fragment_naming system; # system = use system time. sequential = use increasing integers. timestamp = use stream timestamp. Default=sequential.
hls_fragment_slicing plain; # plain|aligned. Plain: switch fragment when target duration is reached. Aligned: switch fragment when incoming timestamp is a
# multiple of fragment duration. Makes it possible to generate identical fragments on different nginx instances. Default=plain.
## ENCRYPTION KEYS ## !! Only works if you have certificates defined in your HTTP server block (Usually a seperate file in /sites-available/yourfile.conf)
# hls_keys on; # on|off. Enables HLS encryption. AES-128 method is used to encrypt the HLS fragments. Requires ssl module. Default=off.
hls_key_path /tmp/keys; # Sets the directory where auto-generated HLS keys are saved. Default= hls_path.
hls_fragments_per_key 100; # Sets the number of HLS fragments encrypted with the same key. 0 means only one key is created at the publish start and
# all fragments within the session are encrypted with this key. Default=0.
#hls_key_url https://foo.bar/keys; # Sets url for HLS key file entries. When empty it assumes hls_path. Default= empty.
## HLS_VARIANT - Used for variable bitrate streaming. Please read: https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module/wiki/Directives#hls_variant ##
## When hls_variant suffix is matched on stream name then variant playlist is created for the current stream with all entries specified by hls_variant
## directives in current application. Stripped name without suffix is used as variant stream name. The original stream is processed as usual.
## Optional parameters following the suffix are appended to EXT-X-STREAM-INF in m3u8 playlist. See HLS spec 3.3.10. EXT-X-STREAM-INF for full list.
hls_variant _low BANDWIDTH=288000; # Low bitrate, sub-SD resolution _low
hls_variant _mid BANDWIDTH=448000; # Medium bitrate, SD resolution _mid
hls_variant _high BANDWIDTH=1152000; # Higher-than-SD resolution _high
hls_variant _higher BANDWIDTH=2048000; # High bitrate, HD 720p resolution _higher
hls_variant _src BANDWIDTH=4096000; # Source bitrate, source resolution _src
}
## MPEG-DASH ##
application dash { # These variables will be used since we enabled pushing /live stream to this application (See line 122)
live on; # on|off. Enables this application and allowing live streaming to it. Default=on.
dash on; # on|off. Toggles MPEG-DASH on the current application.

## TRANSCODING USING FFMPEG EXEC ##
## The following lines will take our incoming RTMP stream and transcode it to several different HLS streams with variable bitrates ##
## Once receive stream, transcode for adaptive streaming. This single ffmpeg command takes the input and transforms the source into ##
## 4 or 5 different streams with different bitrate and quality. P.S. The scaling done here respects the aspect ratio of the input. ##
## EXEC - Many things are possible using exec. To learn more visit https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module/wiki/Directives#exec ##

## SET ACCESS RULES FOR APPLICATION /live ##
## PUBLISHING ##
allow 127.0.0.1; # If you decice to harden these rules, it is adviced to uncomment this line.
# allow publish 192.168.2.0/24; # Anybody from this local IP address range can stream to this application.
# allow publish 192.168.2.50; # Allow a single IP address to stream to this application (multiple lines with different ip's are possible)
allow publish all; # Anybody from any location can stream to this application. Comment this out if you want to use deny publish.
# deny publish 10.0.0.50; # Deny this specific IP address from streaming to this application. Can also be an IP address range.
# deny publish all; # Nobody can stream to the server except those that you've set in previous lines.
## PLAYING ##
allow play 127.0.0.1; # Localhost can play the stream from this application. Must be set if you decide to use push later on!
allow play 192.168.2.0/24; # Anybody in this IP range can play the RTMP directly.
allow play all; # Anybody can play the RTMP livestream directly. Comment this out if you decide to use the next option.
# deny play all; # Nobody can play the RTMP stream except those that we've set in lines above it.
## RECORDING ##
record off; # off|all|audio|video|keyframes|manual. These options speak for themselves.
record_path /tmp/rec; # Folder location that will be used to store the recordings. YOU SHOULD CHANGE THIS TO YOUR PREFERENCE!
record_suffix -%d-%b-%y-%T.flv; # Added to recorded filenames. Example uses 'strftime' format results: -24-Apr-13-18:23:38.flv. Default=.flv
record_unique on; # on|off. Appends timestamp to recorded files. Otherwise the same file is re-written each time. Default=-off
record_append off; # on|off. When turned on recorder appends new data to the old file with no gap. Default=off
record_lock off; # on|off. When turned on recorded file gets locked with 'fcntl' call. Default=off.
record_notify off; # on|off. Toggles sending "NetStream.Record.Start" and "NetStream.Record.Stop" status messages. Default=off.
# record_max_size 128K; # Set maximum file size of the recorded files. No default.
# record_max_frames 200; # Sets maximum number of video frames per recorded file. No default.
# record_interval 15m; # Restart recording after this number of (milli)seconds/minutes. Zero means no delay. Default=off.
# recorder name {} # Create recorder{} block. Multiple recorders can be created withing single application. Example:
recorder audio {
record audio;

}
## STREAM RELAYING LOCAL ##
## For more info please visit: https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module/wiki/Directives#relay ##
## pull url [key=value]* # Creates pull relay. A stream is pulled from remote machine and becomes available locally. ##
## URL Syntax: [rtmp://]host[:port][/app[/playpath]] ##
# pull rtmp://cdn.example.com/live/ch?id=1234 name=channel_a; # This is an example. Visit above url for more info.
# session_relay off; # on|off. On=relay is destroyed when connection is closed. Off=relay is destroyed when stream is closed. Default=off.
## Push has the same syntax as pull. Unlike pull, push directive publishes stream to remote server. ##
## This will push the stream from current application to these two applications to create a hls and/or dash stream automatically. ##
push rtmp://localhost/hls; # Remember to create the app hls! Disable it if you use transcoding using variable bitrates.
push rtmp://localhost/dash; # Remember to create the app dash! It is safe to disable this if you're not interested in using Dash.
## STREAM RELAYING TO EXTERNAL PARTY'S ##
## Push can also be used to re-stream your stream to other platforms. You can do this directly or use an additional application for this. ##
## Using an additional local application allows you to set up variables if you prefer. Or you can choose to push to 3rd party directly. ##
## YOUTUBE PUSH OPTIONS ##
# push rmtp://localhost/youtube; # Uncomment this to use application on localhost (MUST BE SPECIFIED). OR simply use the following line:
# push rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/YOUR-LIVE-STREAM-KEY; # Your RTMP stream will be pushed as it is to Youtube as an RTMP stream.
# TWITCH PUSH OPTIONS ##
# push rmtp://localhost/twitch; # Uncomment this to use application on localhost (MUST BE SPECIFIED). OR simply use the following line:
# push rtmp://live-ams.twitch.tv/app/live_YOUR-LIVE-STREAM-KEY; # Your RTMP stream will be pushed as it is to Twitch as an RTMP stream.
