var jump = new JumpStreamer(element, [opts])
element
is a HTMLElement or CSS selector string. The display will attempt to fit inside this element.
Optional opts
is a configuration object that will override the following defaults:
{
output: {
width: 1200, // resolution of the output stream
height: 900,
fps: 40 // frames per second of the output stream
},
injectStyles: true, // whether to inject the JumpStreamer css
inputs: [array of input devices - see below]
}
adding input devices
There are several ways to get MediaStreams to use as input sources. To add your own, put an object inside the opts.inputs
array that has the following format:
{
name: 'Display Name of Device', // Can be anything, but it should be descriptive
getStream: function (callback) {
// This function should call "callback" with the following arguments
callback(err, name, stream)
- "err" is any error thrown, null otherwise
- "name" is the name of the source (usually the same as the device name)
- "stream" is the input MediaStream
}
}
For example, here is one of the default devices:
{
name: 'Video Camera',
getStream: function (callback) {
getusermedia({audio:true, video:true}, function (err, stream) {
callback(err, 'Video Camera', stream)
})
}
}
notes
jumpstreamer
does not broadcast your video, it simply gives you an output MediaStream to do with as you wish.
You could send it over a WebRTC connection, record it as a file, send to to a proxy RTMP server, pipe it through FFMPEG... whatever!
