In some special scenarios, the authentication operation must be disabled. This article introduces how to splice the encoding streaming URL and the corresponding ingest URL when the authentication function is disabled.

Note
  • This article introduces how to get the spliced URLs manually. You can also get the ingest URL and the streaming URL in the console. For more information, see Configure edge ingestion.
  • If you want to create multiple live activities , you can also splice the ingest URL and the streaming URL in bulk. For more information , see Create multiple live activities.
  • If you don't configure encoding service for your live activities, for more information about the splicing rules of ingest URL and streaming URL, see Ingest URL and streaming URL (Original).
  • In this article, the ingest URL and the streaming URL in the example are for your reference only. You can follow the splicing rules to get your own ingest URL and streaming URL by using your ingest domain, streaming domain, Application Name, Stream Name and the authentication string obtained by authentication.

Prerequisites

Perform the following operations to get the ingest URL and streaming URL:
  • Add a domain name

    You must first created an ingest domain and a streaming domain that have completed ICP filing. For more information, see Add a domain name.

  • Configure CNAME

    After adding a domain, you must configure the CNAME for it to take effect. For more information about how to configure CNAME, see Configure CNAME.

  • Associate domain names

    After creating domain names, you must associate the ingest domain and the streaming domain before you perform stream ingestion and live streaming operations. For more information, see Associate domain names.

How do I get encoding ingest URL?

  • Generation rules of ingest URL

    ApsaraVideo Live service supports ingest URL in RTMP format only.

    The ingest URL format is RTMP://Ingest Domain nName/AppName/StreamName

  • Examples

    For example, the Ingest Domain Name is push.aliyunlive.com, Application Name is app, Stream Name is stream, and the ingest URL is RTMP://push.aliyunlive.com/app/stream

How do I get encoding streaming URL?

You must first configure encoding. ApsaraVideo Live supports universal encoding and custom encoding. Each encoding provides Narrowband HD TM. After you configure encoding and obtain the template ID, you can splice the encoding streaming URL based on the splicing rules.
  1. Configure encoding templates.
    • Configure default encoding
      1. Log on to the ApsaraVideo Live console.
      2. Click Domains.
      3. Select the Streaming Domain, and click Stream Settings.
      4. In Encoding Settings, select Default, and click Add.

      5. Enter encoding settings parameters. You can select the corresponding ID based on your configuration.
        Narrowband HD™

        Note For more information, see Default encoding.
    • Configure custom encoding
      1. Log on to the ApsaraVideo Live console.
      2. Click Domains.
      3. Select the Streaming Domain, and click Stream Settings.
      4. In Encoding settings, select Custom, and click Add.

      5. Enter the encoding setting parameters. You can select the corresponding ID based on your configurations.
        Narrowband HD™

        Note For more information about custom encoding, see Custom encoding.
  2. Get ID.
    • Get the ID in the ApsaraVideo Live console.

      You can obtain the corresponding template ID by following the previous steps.

    • Get the ID by using API.

      You can call the DescribeLiveStreamTranscodeInfo interface, and the system returns the ID. For more information, see DescribeLiveStreamTranscodeInfo.

      In addition, users can customize template based on added fields. For more information about getting custom ID, see AddCustomLiveStreamTranscode.

  3. Splicing rules of encoding URL.
    • Streaming URL supports RMTP, FLV, and HLS formats. For encoding URLs in different formats, you must add _templateid following StreamName.
      • RTMP format：:rtmp://Streaming Domain Name/AppName/StreamName{_templateid}?
      • FLV format:http://Streaming Domain Name/AppName/StreamName{_templateid}.flv?
      • HLS format:http://Streaming Domain Name/AppName/StreamName{_templateid}.m3u8?
    • Examples

      For example, the Streaming Domain Name is play.aliyunlive.com, the Application Name is app, the Stream Name is stream, and the authentication key is 456, then the streaming URL is:

      • RTMP-based streaming URL rtmp://play.aliyunlive.com/app/stream_sd
      • FLV-based streaming URL http://play.aliyunlive.com/app/stream_sd.flv?
      • HLS-based streaming URL http://play.aliyunlive.com/app/stream_sd.m3u8
      Note M3u8 encoding URL is already supported. If you have more requirements, Open a ticket.
