Build Utilities
sudo apt-get install build-essential libpcre3 libpcre3-dev libssl-dev git zlib1g-dev -y
On Amazon Linux: sudo yum install git gcc make pcre-devel openssl-devel zlib1g-dev
Make and CD to build directory (home)
sudo mkdir ~/build && cd ~/build
Download & unpack latest nginx-rtmp (you can also use http)
sudo git clone git://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module.git
Download & unpack nginx (you can also use svn)
sudo wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.14.1.tar.gz
sudo tar xzf nginx-1.14.1.tar.gz
cd nginx-1.14.1
Build nginx with nginx-rtmp
sudo ./configure --with-http_ssl_module --add-module=../nginx-rtmp-module
sudo make
sudo make install
Start nginx Server
sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
SET UP LIVE STREAMING
To set up RTMP support you need to add
rtmp{} section to nginx.conf (can be found in PREFIX/conf/nginx.conf). Stock nginx.conf contains only http{} section.sudo nano /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
Use this
nginx.conf instead of stock config:#user nobody;

Restart nginx with:
sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -s stop
sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
STATISTICS
Navigate your browser to
http://localhost:8080/stat to see current streaming statistics, connected clients, bandwidth etc.CONFIG RTMP HLS
push rtmp://localhost:1935/show
rtmp { server { listen 1935; # Listen on standard RTMP port chunk_size 4000; application show { live on; # Turn on HLS hls on; hls_path /usr/local/nginx/html/hls; hls_fragment 3; hls_playlist_length 60; # disable consuming the stream from nginx as rtmp allow play all; } } }
REPUSH SERVER ANOTHER
push rtmp://domain.com:1935/application/;
HTTP SERVER CONFIG
Since HLS consists of static files, a simple http server can be set up with two additions, correct MIME types and CORS headers.
server { listen 8080; location /hls { # Disable cache add_header Cache-Control no-cache; # CORS setup add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*' always; add_header 'Access-Control-Expose-Headers' 'Content-Length'; # allow CORS preflight requests if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') { add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*'; add_header 'Access-Control-Max-Age' 1728000; add_header 'Content-Type' 'text/plain charset=UTF-8'; add_header 'Content-Length' 0; return 204; } types { application/vnd.apple.mpegurl m3u8; video/mp2t ts; } root /mnt/; } }
