    <p>I would like to display a live video stream in a web browser. (Compatibility with IE, Firefox, and Chrome would be awesome, if possible.) Someone else will be taking care of streaming the video, but I have to be able to receive and display it. I will be receiving the video over UDP, but for now I am just using VLC to stream it to myself for testing purposes. Is there an open source library that might help me accomplish this using HTML and/or JavaScript? Or a good website that would help me figure out how to do this on my own?</p> <p>I've read a bit about RTSP, which seems like the traditional option for something like this. That might be what I have to fall back on if I can't accomplish this using UDP, but if that is the case I still am unsure of how to go about this using RTSP/RTMP/RTP, or what the differences between all those acronyms are, if any.</p> <p>I thought HTTP adaptive streaming might be the best option for a while, but it seemed like all the solutions using that were proprietary (Microsoft IIS Smooth Streaming, Apple HTTP Live Streaming, or Adobe HTTP Dynamic Streaming), and I wasn't having much luck figuring out how to accomplish it on my own. MPEG-DASH sounded like an awesome solution as well, but it doesn't seem to be in use yet since it is still so new. But now I am told that I should expect to receive the video over UDP anyways, so those solutions probably don't matter for me anymore.</p> <p>I've been Googling this stuff for several days without much luck on finding anything to help me implement it. All I can find are articles explaining what the technologies are (e.g. RTSP, HTTP Adaptive Streaming, etc.) or tools that you can buy to stream your own videos over the web. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated!</p>
