Installation

Search for ‘CAC livestream’ within plugins and activate it.

Usage

After you’ve activated the plugin, to embed the livestream video player in any Commons blog post or page, you will need to use the [livestream] shortcode.

This is the default shortcode settings which will embed the CUNY.is/LIVE video stream onto your page or post:

[livestream 
mp4file="http://23.23.204.139:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8" 
flashfile="myStream.sdp" 
flashstream="rtmp://23.23.204.139:1935/live"]

You can edit any of the attributes width, height, image, and autoplay to change the player size, default image, and whether video will automatically play when the web page loads. If you edit the mp4file, flashfile, and flashstream attributes you will no longer connect to the CUNY.is/LIVE stream. You are welcome to use the plugin to play your own mp4 and flash files, as well as connect to your own streaming server.
