Server Deployment for NDNts Adaptive Video

NDNts adaptive video can play videos encoded by Shaka Packager and served by ndn6-file-server producer application.

Encoding

Install FFmpeg and Shaka Packager:

sudo apt install ffmpeg
curl -fsLS https://github.com/shaka-project/shaka-packager/releases/download/v2.6.1/packager-linux-x64 | \
  sudo install /dev/stdin /usr/local/bin/shaka-packager

Alternatively, you can specify USE_DOCKER=1 environ when invoking encode.sh script to use Docker images of these programs. You can additionally specify DOCKER_LIMITS="--cpus 0.5 --memory 512MB" environ to set CPU and RAM limits.

Encode a video:

./encode.sh ~/video-input/1.mp4 ~/video-output/1

Serving

You need to install ndn6-tools, which is available from NFD nightly builds.

Serve a folder:

ndn6-file-server /example/video ~/video-output

Alternatively, you can use NDN-DPDK fileserver, which implements the same protocol.
