Embed RTMP stream WordPress

We’ll almost certainly need to deal with RTMP if we want to broadcast to viewers on all devices. Even though it’s simple, we’ll break it down.

The Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) stands for Real-Time Messaging Protocol. It can be compared to a language. Our live stream software will act as a translator, converting our raw video footage to the RTMP protocol. All modern devices will be able to play back the live media as a result of this.

Embed RTMP stream on WordPress

The live streaming platform provides an RTMP live stream media player. This is how it works:

• Firstly, Become a member of a live streaming platform.
• A stream key and a stream URL will be provided by the platform.
• In the live streaming encoder, enter the key and the URL. The streaming software and our streaming platform are now linked.
• Get the embed code for the live stream player from the live streaming platform.
• Embed the live stream embed code anywhere on the internet.

Live Streaming Plugins: The Facts

To live stream on WordPress, we DO NOT NEED A FANCY PLUGIN. All we need is the RAW HTML plugin and a live video hosting website (such as StreamingVideoProvider or YouTube).

The RTMP player embed code is provided by streaming video providers, and we use the RAW HTML plugin to publish it on a web page or post. The RAW HTML plugin (which is NOT a WordPress live streaming plugin) is recommended because it prevents WordPress from messing up the code.

All right, now that we know what we need to get things started, all we have to do is GET GOING!
