Doesn't work BUT ... about picam-viewer

[kamranayub]

What browser are you using to test? I use Chrome and haven't had issues streaming Picam with the viewer. You can also open the developer tools in Chrome and see if there are any errors. Maybe it's just a bad path.

I tried also VLC, to see if I have some errors with my server; VLC has no problems to play the HLS Stream from picam. So the combination videojs-contrib-hls and picam doesn't work, perhaps someone can tell me why? Perhaps its a problem with the index.m3u8 generated from picam? — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Hi,
I also have the same problem. I can view the stream correctly followed your post but the webpage doesn't working. I have tried chrome and edge and ie. Inspect the webpage, I found:

I know nothing about js and I don't know how to tell if it grab the right path. Also, how can you redirect the web address http://babypi.local/ to this address? I have to use http://babypi.local/picam-viewer/index.html to see the player.

Actually it sounds like you may not have configured nginx correctly, the root should be pointing to your picam-viewer path, so the URL should just be http://babypi.local not http://babypi.local/picam-viewer

I can double check the guide, it should be configuring it that way unless you missed a command or the guide missed something. But yeah that's my guess!

Also I noticed I can no longer use the shortcut DNS babypi.local, I have been using the IP address for the past year or two. I can add that note as well.

Thanks a lot. I got it fixed. I changed
root /var/www/html
to
root /var/www/html/picam-viewer

in nginx default config. I think you didn't mention this in "Adding a web player" section. Great tutorial. Thanks again.

Perfect, I will add this to the guide! Appreciate it!
