About

The Live Broadcast Bundle will make it possible to plan live video streams to various websites/apps like Twitch, YouTube Live, Facebook Live.

You are able to stream from various inputs. This package supports files, URLs or existing RTMP streams.

For more info you can view the latest recorded presentation below, check the demo project at https://github.com/Martin1982/live-broadcast-demo or read on;

Prerequisites

To test these prerequisites the Symfony command livebroadcaster:test:shell can be used after the installation described below. If you like to check this manually the Broadcaster needs a few commands on an operating system;

All OS's:

• ffmpeg 3.x or higher

On Linux:

• ps
• kill

On Mac:

• ps
• grep
• kill

On Windows:

• tasklist
• taskkill

Basic installation

This bundle is available on Packagist. You can then install it using Composer:

$ composer require martin1982/live-broadcast-bundle

Use Doctrine to update your database schema with the broadcasting entities, when upgrading it is recommended to use migrations.

To start the broadcast scheduler you can run the following command:

$ php bin/console livebroadcaster:broadcast

To run the scheduler as a long-running process it's recommended to use the messenger middleware to keep the database connection alive as described at https://symfony.com/doc/current/messenger.html

FFMpeg log directory

To view the output of FFMpeg you need to configure a log directory in your config/packages/live_broadcast.yaml.

 live_broadcast:
    ffmpeg:
        log_directory: '%kernel.logs_dir%'

Event loop

You can use this configuration to set the event loop timer:

live_broadcast:
    eventloop:
        timer: 5

Thumbnailer setup

Set up the following config for thumbnails:

live_broadcast:
    thumbnail:
        upload_directory: '%kernel.project_dir%/public/uploads/thumbnails'
        web_path: '/uploads/thumbnails'

Enabling Facebook Live

Create a Facebook app on https://developers.facebook.com with the following permissions:

• user_videos
• user_events
• user_managed_groups
• manage_pages
• publish_actions
• Live-Video API

Edit your config/packages/live_broadcast.yaml with the following configuration:

live_broadcast:
    facebook:
        application_id: YourFacebookAppId
        application_secret: YourFacebookAppSecret

Enabling YouTube Live

Login to https://console.developers.google.com/ and enable the 'YouTube Data API v3'.

Add the YouTube API info to your config.yml:

live_broadcast:
    youtube:
        client_id: YourGoogleOauthClientId
        client_secret: YourGoogleOauthClientSecret

Add these lines to your parameters.yml (used for generating a thumbnail URL)

parameters:
    router.request_context.host: broadcast.com
    router.request_context.scheme: https

Add new output platforms

Create a new Channel Entity in Entity/Channel that extends the AbstractChannel (e.g. ChannelNew)

Create a new StreamOutput service in Service/StreamOutput that implements the OutputInterface (e.g. OutputNew)

Configure the service with the output tag in config/services.yml

live.broadcast.output.new:
    class: Martin1982\LiveBroadcastBundle\Service\StreamOutput\OutputNew
    tags:
        - { name: live.broadcast.output, platform: 'New' }
