Thanks so much for your feedback! I will definitely make note of that

No problem, happy to help out!

Is there a way with the react stream component to display the "poster" prop when a live stream is offline, or how do you track whether a live stream is currently on/off from the streamplayerapi?

Hey Cloudflare team! I recently had an email convo with someone at Mux, who I declined a demo call since I am going to use CF Stream instead. They cautioned me that you all were not planning to support this product in a real way— I’m guessing this was just a scare tactic. Any more info you can share? Thank you!!!

That doesn't sound right. There is definitely a little less emphasis on #893253103695065128, as opposed to other channels in this Discord, but that is mostly due to the fact that the average Joe on the street don't need a fully featured video streaming platform to share their vlogs(like me). But for real customers, there is definitely real support and work going on.

That was my thought and I totally get that!

I'm new to Stream, but have been using Images. Is there a Stream equivalent of the Images functionality to serve from a custom domain? https://developers.cloudflare.com/images/cloudflare-images/serve-images#serving-images-from-custom-domains

I don’t think so, not yet(might be on the road map), but in the mean time, you could always proxy Images with a Worker.

Got it. I did find a post on the forum from 2019 along those lines (https://community.cloudflare.com/t/streaming-under-custom-domain/81008/4). Was curious if that had since been built-in. Thanks!

I totally misread, thought you meant custom domain for Images. I’m not proficient with Stream, so I wouldn’t know, I’m sorry.

No problem!

@User : heads up that direct creator uploads - at least when created with tus support - by default gives me an expiry of 24h instead of the default 30m, which is also significantly higher than the maximum of 6h

@User thanks for sharing. we'll take a look and push a fix

You're welcome! I hope that expired uploads are automatically removed from the dashboard at some point as well - having to manually remove them seems like a hassle, especially without being able to select multiple videos and filtering for expired ones.

Not sure where I'd find that info so I figured I'd ask here, Does stream currently support, or are the plans to support, DRM technology in the future? (Widevine, Fairplay, Playready)

I would also be very interested in the function, it is actually enough for us if it would be allowed to route the audio stream through Cloudflare, if you pay e.g. the resulting traffic. Because we already protect and hide our entire infrastructure behind Cloudflare and thus prevent downtimes (primarily due to DDoS attacks). The only thing that is exposed is the stream. 😅

Exactly. There has been heaps of time and effort invested in protecting Video Streams, and virtually nothing for Audio. Very little has changed, in real terms, since the late 90s in all honesty. Cloudflare is uniquely positioned to be able to offer a "fix" (either run the streams over port 80/443 which is totally doable as it stands right now, its just against the ToS) or make a dedicated product similar to the current Video Stream offering. There is a market out there ready for this, we just need Cloudflare to see it.

Hello to everyone. I have two questions. How can i change the "Input Status" to "Connected" and "Live Playback and Recording" to "Yes" with coding? I create a live stream with code but this features i didn't find how to tease. Thanks in advance.

Hello, My users sometimes complain that some videos won´t load, the player show a message "an unknown error occurred", but after a refresh, the video show without a problem, I've seen this error on desktop and mobile (iOS and Android) chrome, firefox and safari .

I've read some posts saying that the issue is the file, https://community.cloudflare.com/t/cloudflare-stream-unknown-error/314943, but that's not the case here

problem solved

any idea untill how many seconds can i set to timeoutSeconds when i create a livestream ? From 0 to ... ?

Hi, reading the FAQ on stream live, in the limits section, does the 50 outputs per live input means, that the live only supports 50 users simultaneously?

That is referring to RTMP outputs — you can re-broadcast to other live streaming platforms (YouTube, Twtich, FB Live, etc...)

Hello CF team, is it very common that the Stream player will be offline even though my Input is connected? this feature has been unreliable for me in the past few weeks.

When I load the iframe, it also says that the stream is offline.

Howdy! So i'm new to stream but I want to use it so that I can embed the video into apps like Discord when the link is sent, I have got it sort of working but when you hit play then it doesn't actually plan and is only 0 seconds long any ideas on what to change to resolve this?

Tried with and without the

preload

option and I get the same result
