Which webservers are supported?
Please see the Supported Webservers for details.
HTTP request methods
Unified Streaming supports the following request methods:
GET
POST
Other requests (e.g. HEAD, DELETE, PUT etc) will return a 405
HTTP_METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED
.
In the case of Apache, OPTIONS is passed on to other handlers.
CORS headers
USP currently only supports GET and POST, OPTIONS are passed on in the case of Apache - so the following needs to be set in the (Apache virtual host config):
# Necessary for Media Source Extensions (MSE)
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "origin, range"
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, HEAD, OPTIONS"
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header always set Access-Control-Expose-Headers "Server,range"
Live Ingest
Both CMAF ingest and regular fragmented MP4 ingest are supported. Please see the LIVE Ingest section for more details.
The protocol uses HTTP POST and requires 'HTTP Chuncked Transfer Encoding', which is not avalable in all webservers.
Attention
For Live ingest you have to use Apache (Linux or Windows).
