Live sources

getting live video to the invintus platform

In this section we will walk you through the process of getting your source (camera) feed to the invintus platform so it can be delivered to your viewers.

~ Live video starts at a camera ~
That can be a phone, IP security, conference system or broadcast cameras

IP RTSP cameras

Typically use in surveillance scenarios, some devices can stream direct to Invintus without the use of an encoder

Mobile Device Capture

A smart phones camera can be turned into a streaming broadcasting tool with built in encoding with the use of applications such as GoCoder from Wowza

Broadcast

Higher quality broadcast and film camera to obtain high definition resolutions

Desktop and POV

Webcams, POV cameras such as a GoPro or even direct from a video conferencing system

~ VIDEO GETS ENCODED INTO A FORMAT OUR SERVERS UNDERSTAND ~
CONVERTING THE FEED FROM YOUR CAMERA TO STREAMABLE DATA

What is an encoder?
Encoders convert video data from one format to another. They can be either hardware or software and are essential to converting the feed from your camera to streamable data.

This includes but not limited to any loss of data, recordings, bandwidth usage or disconnections.
