Frontend resources for video streaming over Named Data Network

Let NDN Stream Videos in Browsers

This repository is part of iViSA project. This is a simple webpage that allows the users to stream HLS/DASH packaged videos over NDN. To enabe the browser to support NDN functionalities, the webpage loads a group of JavaScript libraries in the browser. In the backend, there must be an accessible NDN server (whether online or local) that serves HLS/DASH packaged videos (see Backend).

For a quick test, simply open index.html file and open the video link to watch a sample video over NDN. The html files are kept very simple to show the minimum requirements and they can be safely used to develop your own html webpages.

The following JavaScript libraries are used in this project:

• Shaka Player
• ndn-js

Backend

To run an NDN video fileserver visit ndn-mongo-fileserver.
