I'm currently realising a school project which aims a streaming video website (like Netflix) using torrent-stream (with the magnet link). I am using NodeJS for the stream part.
My problem is : I can't redirect the stream to the HTML 5 player while i'm trying to stream and converting (with ffmpeg) video at the same time. I think it's because I just can't know what's will be the final size of the converted file.
In browser's console I have this message: net::ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH 200 (OK)
I tried to put this in the header : Transfer-Encoding: chunked
instead of Content-Length
I specify that the stream (before conversion) works perfectly
This is my code :
getTorrentFile.then(function (file) {
res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'video/mp4');
res.setHeader('Content-Length', file.length);
const ranges = parseRange(file.length, '15' /* variable à comprendre */, { combine: true });
console.log(ranges);
if (ranges === -1) {
// 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable
console.log('416')
res.statusCode = 416;
return res.end();
} else if (ranges === -2 || ranges.type !== 'bytes' || ranges.length > 1) {
// 200 OK requested range malformed or multiple ranges requested, stream ent'ire video
if (req.method !== 'GET') return res.end();
console.log('200')
stream = file.createReadStream()
ffmpeg(stream)
.videoCodec('libx264')
.audioCodec('aac')
.output(res)
.output('./video/' + film + '_s' + season + '_e' + episode + '.mp4')
.outputFormat('mp4')
.outputOptions('-movflags frag_keyframe+empty_moov')
.on('error', function(err) {
console.log('An error occurred: ' + err.message);
})
.on('progress', function(progress) {
console.log('Processing: ' + progress.targetSize + 'kb done');
})
.on('end', function() {
console.log('Processing finished !');
})
.addOutputOption('-acodec')
.run()
Sorry if i'm not really clear, ask me some questions if you need more informations :)
Thanks for your help, bye :)
