Hi

I have setup a ffserver which provides live video stream in the local network over http.

What I want is django app which enables me to do some authentication stuff and stream from local network to outside world.

I have more than decent amount of knowledge in Django and have done dozen projects using django framework.

I m very much clueless and even wondering how to begin with this.

If anyone with knowledge on how to accomplish this sort of stuff could provide some guidance would be helpful.

Even just a hint or starting tip off would be of great help.

Regards
Jahan

You can try to use a proxy. Maybe not the most performance-wise idea in
the world, but it could work.

You can try this:

Javier.

Hi,
eventual something like X-Accel-Redirect can help to do this without a performance penalty. See https://wellfire.co/learn/nginx-django-x-accel-redirects/ Serving protected upstream services
