How To Code A Video Streaming Server in NodeJS 

Man this is pretty cool, thanks Abdi!! Keep it up Since the videoSize is unlikely to change, I would move the call to obtain the statsSync outside the /video endpoint.

it is rare nowadays that yt feeds me content this valuable. well done, we need more creators like you...subbed!

Great explanation with the pros and cons, and especially the introduction. Keep going brother!

You know I have no idea who you are but just from that introduction I can already tell you'll have 100K subs within the next year

Very clear and easy to understand explanation, thanks so much Abdi!

you explained everything so clearly, loved it

very cool and I like the way you walk through the video explaining all of the parts. Thanks

Man oh man!! Thank you! I will be waiting for more such content from you.

Extremely informative and straightforward. Thank you.

I'm trying to build an audio streaming server instead, and this is helping me get the blocks I need to piece things together. Thanks Abdi!

I don't know why you don't do more videos like this. By just watching stuff like this people learn a lot and what might seem easy and obvious to you is pretty obscure to many of us. Thank you for this nice little presentation , It was very informative. But please, could we have more ?

Thank you man, very well explained, with all the details and very good English!

Nice video, I'm a front end developer and I was contacted by a streaming company to have a chat, they offered my a position and I have to learn all this stuff as soon as posible :)

You've earned yourself another subscriber. Awesome tutorial!

Great content man Subscribing hoping for more awesome content

exactly what am I searching... 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

great content thank you so much

Thank you for this tutorial, it is very cool and practical, we can let everyone access the server to see the video; I have a request, how do we send webcam video stream to server and let everyone views like youtube live stream ? It would be awesome if you can make such a tutorial and I think everyone wants to know how to achieve it !!!

fantastic!

awesome, thank you!

Great tutorial Abdi. It would be helpful if you can also highlight how do we elevate this concept to streaming cloud storage contents i.e google cloud storage, aws s3.

thanks for this! :)

Amazing !!!

great video, make some more in details videos like that

Thank you so much, you are the best :'D

Thx, it was helpfull!!!

Good job mate

Hi there, thanks for the video! Im trying to build an audio streaming site but have no clue how to go about it.. Im currently debating whether or not I should set up my own server or piggyback off of something like a Soundcloud as an example. Would you kindly please share any tips for this kind of approach?

thanks a lot for the video ...

Hohooooo... this is it. Tanks bredda.

Very cool video, i like your code style and explanations. Just one thing, i believe this is not good to use statSync (or any sync IO function) inside a request handler, cause this would block the JS runtime event loop.

MashAllah keep up my dawg

You're so awesome!!! 😎😎😎😎

thank you bro . you rock

Zindabad Brother

its lit💥, thanks bruv.

thank you bro

Really appreciate your work ...Can you make more detail full stack live streaming project....

Hey I really did the clear explanation of both the overview and the line-by-line code. And such a simple code to illustrate the point. From the figure you have at 1:10, the two-way arrows got me wondering: how could we send recorded video from a client to the server in the same kind of bit-by-bit stream? I've build a client-side page that records video that I can then send to a server, but am looking to speed up the process and avoid saving anything client-side. Any ideas? Cheers!

excellent

Can you please make a video which can demonstrate how to handle the pre-existing video data in frontend. As you suggested in the last part of the video. Please reply.

I think that pipe(res) maybe cause a memory leak if the peer close the connection, there is no code to close the stream if this happens, maybe you could use pipeline instead, this way it automatically close the stream. But good video

thanks man

Hey I wanted ask but in containerized environments the video will not be on localhost, so what would be the ideal place to story them would s3 make sense ?.

This is cool man, as soon as I saw your post, I immediately jumped into implementing it, I feel so great about this after implementing it, thanks for sharing, can you do more tutorial about streaming and pipes, buffering, I see the network tab is having media ping with every time streaming is done, is that normal ? or can we hide that 206

Hi, can you deep dive into how pipe works and how req.headers.range is generated with new values?

Your video is really interesting . I have a challenge in this . I am downloading the file from a FTP location and the the received file is in the form of a stream . How to send that stream as chunks without storing the ftp received file in the local system ?

Thanks Abdi! Its a great info, do you have any idea how to stream kinesis video stream in node js within Amazon console?

If I use fetch get request to get the video then where should I include ranges. When I include in header the subsequent requests shows 401 because of authentication middleware

i really like your concept, i have a question if you can answer. how do i switch between audio track if video file have multiple audio tracks? i couldnt find this solution where i can change my audio track in video controller. thank you

thank you

very useful, is it possibile to do with any mid-level language? such as Java, C#?

What a great tutorial!!! Just one question, who do I apply this but with a video store in the cloud? If you have any resource I will really appreciate it!
