CDN Upload and Video Embed Instructions

Here is the list of instructions for uploading files and embedding video to CDN resources. Follow the step-by-step instructions below to upload files or embed video to the required CDN resource type.

Http Push CDN Resources
VOD Pull CDN Resource
VOD Push CDN Resource
Live Streaming CDN Resource

HTTP Push CDN Resource

To upload files to the HTTP Push CDN resource:

Connect to the FTP origin using an FTP client. For example, a browser plug-in like FireFTP or FTP software like FileZilla.
Please wait up to 10 minutes until the FTP server configures with the HTTP resource.
Specify the following FTP details:
- Hostname: 6789.origin.customercdn.com
- Username: 6789
- Password: The FTP password set at CDN resource creation.
  
  This is an instruction template. Replace “6789” with the resource id, and “customercdn.com” with the operator’s domain.
Upload your files .

VOD Pull CDN Resource

To upload files to the HTTP Push CDN resource, enter the following script into your web page:

<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://video.worldcdn-beta.net/player.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="my-video-player"/>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      CDNPlayer("my-video-player", 1234, "1234/mystream", {width:640, height:360} );
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

This is an instruction template. Replace “1234” with the resource id, “customercdn.com” with the operator’s domain, and “mystream.mp4” with the filename or stream name.
resource_id/ must prefix the path with <resource_id>, it is ONLY applicable to VOD PULL playback.
This example provides default values for width and height. You can change them to your own values.

Our easy video embed script automatically detects the browser type (Desktop or Mobile device) and loads the appropriate player. Currently, this is either Flow Player or the browser’s native HTML5 player. The streaming protocol is also set appropriately.

VOD Push CDN Resource

To upload files to the VOD Push CDN resource:

Connect to the FTP origin using an FTP client. For example, a browser plug-in like FireFTP, or FTP software like FileZilla.
Please allow up to 10 minutes for the FTP server to be configured with the VOD resource.
Specify the FTP details:
- Hostname: 6789.origin.customercdn.com
- Username: 6789
- Password: the password set at creation
  
  This is an instruction template. Replace “6789” with the resource id, and “customercdn.com” with the operator’s domain.
Upload your files.
Enter the following script into your web page:

<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://video.worldcdn-beta.net/player.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="my-video-player"/>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      CDNPlayer("my-video-player", 1234, "1234/mystream", {width:640, height:360} );
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Our easy video embed script automatically detects the browser type (Desktop or Mobile device) and loads the appropriate player. Currently, this is either Flow Player or the browser’s native HTML5 player. The streaming protocol is also set appropriately.

Live Streaming CDN Resource

Before you start, make sure your publishing point settings meet the following requirements (to be able to retrieve with the Silverlight Player):
- h.264 Baseline 3
- AAC or MP3-stereo-44100Hz audio
- 2 seconds key frame frequency
- lower bitrate
  
  OnApp CDN does not autotranscode a stream into multiple bitrate or adaptive bitrate.
  It is recommended to publish multiple streams with a different bitrate from the publishing point and allow end users to choose the stream with the bitrate they need.
Install and configure the Adobe Live media encoder:
1. Install Adobe Live Encoder.
2. Once the Adobe Live Encoder is installed, run the application and move on to the next step.
3. Complete the form:
  - FMS URL: rtmp://1234.publishstream.customercdn.com/P1234
  - Backup URL: rtmp://backup.1234.publishstream.customercdn.com/P1234
  - Stream: your stream name
    
    This is an instruction template. Replace “1234” with the resource id, and “customercdn.com” with the operator’s domain.
4. Press Connect.
5. In the password pop up window, enter “P1234” as the username and the resource secret key for the password.
6. Press Start to start publishing the live stream.
Enter the following script into your web page to embed video to the Live Streaming CDN resource:
```
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://video.worldcdn-beta.net/player.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="my-video-player"/>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      CDNPlayer("my-video-player", 1234, "mystream", {width:640, height:360} );
    </script>
  </body>
</html>
```
This example provides default values for width and height. You can change them to your own values.

Our easy video embed script automatically detects the browser type (Desktop or Mobile device) and loads the appropriate player. Currently, this is either Flow Player or the browser’s native HTML5 player. The streaming protocol is also set appropriately.
To stream a video using RTMP, enable secure Wowza and fill in the secure token after the creation of a live streaming resource.
Example of the Flow Player embed code:
<h1>FLOW SMIL</h1> <a href="http://video.onappcdn.net/12946278/livestream.smil" style="display:block;width:520px;height:330px" id="player"> </a> <script type="text/javascript" src="flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.10.min.js"></script> <script> flowplayer("player", "flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.11.swf", { plugins: { smil: { url: "flowplayer/flowplayer.smil-3.2.8.swf" }, rtmp: { url: "flowplayer/flowplayer.rtmp-3.2.10.swf" }, secure: { url: "flowplayer/flowplayer.securestreaming-3.2.8.swf", token: escape('apppp&&')} }, clip: { provider: 'rtmp', autoPlay: false, urlResolvers: ['smil'], connectionProvider: 'secure' } }); </script>
Click here to see what should be changed
<href="http://video.onappcdn.net/12946278/livestream.smil" > to <<href="http://video.[yourdomain.com]/[resource ID]/[stream name].smil">.
token: escape('apppp&&') - change apppp&& to the secure token that has been set up.
To publish a stream via FFmpeg, use the following commands:
ffmpeg -re -i dummy.mp4 -f
flv rtmp://username:password@fms_URL:80/P"CDN_Reference"/mystream

Example:
ffmpeg -re -i dummy.mp4 -f
flv rtmp://P404130149:mtXsvYDwQQ@404130149.publishstream.worldcdn.net:80/P404130149/streamname
If an external publishing point is used, the customer should have the RTMP URL as in the example below:
rtmp//xxxxxx.xxxx.com/live/streamname1
Click here to see the URL requirements
URL must start with an rtmp, e.g., rtmp//xxxxxx.xxxx.com/live.
URL must include the name of a stream specified in the ffmpeg command, which is provided in the command line in the CentOS system, during the streaming to the external publishing point.
This URL (from the external publishing point) should be playable. Then try to restream it using the CDN network.
Create a live streaming resource and insert rtmp//xxxxxx.xxxx.com/live/ in the External publishing location box.
As a result, your CDN URL should be as in the example below:
http://video.yourdomina.net/414746811/_definst_/streamname1.m3u8
Manual Instructions

We support a variety of methods to get the CDN URL to use in your player.

SMIL
