HIVE WebRTC Endpoint Requirements

To support browser-based peer-to-peer distribution of live video, HIVE WebRTC requires a web browser that supports WebRTC data channels.

Browsers that do not support WebRTC data channels may still view Kaltura MediaSpace events, but they will not benefit from peer-to-peer distribution.

HIVE WebRTC Networking Requirements

HIVE WebRTC typically functions optimally on enterprise networks without any additional configuration.  However, IT Admins should review the following list to insure no required services are blocked.

Info
titleTry It Out!

You can verify HIVE WebRTC is supported on your network by loading the HIVE WebRTC reference player.  Share the URL https://webrtc.hivestreaming.com/kaltura with other workers in your network and watch the test video together for several minutes to verify your browsers are able to reach the Hive Streaming Cloud Services and connect with other browsers on the network to distribute video fragments.  Click here for more information on the HIVE WebRTC reference player.
