Stream is captured by HLS using Chrome extension, but not via iOS or Safari

[ShahanKrakirian]

Hi - thanks for your awesome library! This has helped me a great deal. I'm using a RaspberryPi (4) with a RaspberryPi camera module (v2.1) to make a video stream available for consumption by Android and iOS devices.

I'm using the following command to make the video available:

v4l2rtspstream -S

Which does a few things successfully:

I'm able to view the stream on Android at the following IP/Port: rtsp://[IP]:8554/unicast I'm able to view the stream on Chrome with an HLS extension: http://[IP]:8554/ts.m3u8

However, I'm unable to view the stream in iOS or on Safari.

Is this expected behavior? If so, is there something I'm missing to make this readily available for iOS consumption?

Hi ShahanKrakirian,

I never tried with IOS, I will try with safari, one of these days.

You may try using the embeded index.html openning http://[IP:8554] in Safari, this index?html use hls.js, maybe this is supported in your context.

Best Regards,

Michel.
