Use media-stream-library-js to play AXIS camera recordings

[AlessandroMartinelli]

Hi,
I was able to use example example-streams-web/camera/simple.html from media-stream-library-js to play a recording stored on an AXIS Camera SD card directly on browser.
Actually it's quite simple, in order to test this you just need to edit line
https://github.com/AxisCommunications/media-stream-library-js/blob/07f9471495bdbf4e9a6c61c9e11a0d6c51794f05/example-streams-web/camera/simple-player.js#L44
by adding ?recordingid=<recordingId> at the end of it.

This way the recording is played successfully in browser.

Now I'm trying to let the user navigate back and forth in the recording video stream sent from the camera. Using the video seek bar you can only seek to parts of the stream that have been buffered, so I thought I just need to send the command of playing the recording specifying as start time the timestamp I want the playback to start. From AXIS VAPIX Documentation I understand I need to add an additional header like Range: ntp=<starttime>.

However it's not clear to me how am I supposed to edit the above javascript file to add the Range header.

Could you please help me out?

Hi @AlessandroMartinelli! I think you will have a better chance of getting an answer if you write this question in the media-stream-library-js repository.

Hi @mattias-kindborg-at-work and thank you for the answer.

Actually I've written the question on media-stream-library-js repository even before writing here but, since I've received no answer in 4 days, and I really need to understand if this can be done or not, I though I would have had more chances of being answered here.

I'm sorry, your best chance of getting an answer would be your original question.

Ok, thanks.
