keeping videos on another server
Hello Maxim,
Ubunbtu Server 1:
OM is running here
Webserver 2:
(not an OM clustered server)
I store the mp4 video here.
I want to put the video on a whiteboard in OM.
This means the Kurento Media Server accesses
the video source stored on Webserver 2.
My question:
Is this possible?
Thank you.

So you would like to have something like "Put URL to WB" functionality ...
This is not supported out-of-the-box :(
This will require source code changes
And IMO will introduce some "potential" problems:
- Users will definitely try to put youtube URL's, which will NOT work
- Server hosting mp4 files MUST support "accept-range" header and
MUST process it according to spec
- there will be no chance to validate these video files
- there will be no chance to malicious content replacing (i.e. the
link to the external resource can be replaced without notice)
- ......
- there might be something else

Thank you for your reply.

I can't install NFS on the Server 2 because it is not under my control.
It is just a normal webserver that can store mp4 files and provide a link
that
points to this mp4.
Example: https://server2/videos/video_01.mp4
The following JSON shows a sample request for the creation of a
PlayerEndpoint Media Element:
{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "create", "params": {
"type": "PlayerEndpoint", "constructorParams": { "pipeline":
"6829986", "uri": "http://host/app/video.mp4" },
"sessionId": "c93e5bf0-4fd0-4888-9411-765ff5d89b93" }}
The uri above should be this:https://server2/videos/video_01.mp4
The browser passes now a subpath to the OM application server
like this:
files/id4725&uid45454-5454-56565&ruid4554-55454&uid...
id4725 is the file id in the OM database
My question:
Is it possible to pass this different link
(https://server2/videos/video_01.mp4
) without installing anything on server 2.
Thank you.

you can set up nfs
for ex. as described here:
