Video monitoring system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a video monitoring system. The video monitoring system disclosed by the invention can realize any promotion of video streams, and has low cost and good expansibility. The videomonitoring system disclosed by the invention solves the control problem of the video streams of a remote camera device by using a video stream pushing terminal, stores the video streams by using a streaming media server, controls the flow direction of the video streams by using a streaming media playing platform, and can push the specified video stream to a specified address by implementing an instruction through interaction control middleware, thereby pushing the video streams to any network node or providing video services externally; and the traditional tree structure feature is modified into a reticular structure by using the cloud service of the streaming server, thereby greatly reducing the pressures of the server and a network bandwidth and supporting rapid capacity expansion on demand.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of live streaming media, in particular to a video monitoring system. Background technique [0002] Streaming media refers to a media format played on the Internet in a streaming manner. Streaming media is also called streaming media. It means that businesses use a video transmission server to send programs as data packets, transmit them to the network, and watch them after being acquired and processed by each terminal. [0003] Video surveillance is to play the information collected by remote camera equipment (nvr (hard disk video recorder) or ipc (network camera)) on the playback platform in the form of streaming media. The current video surveillance is generally implemented by means of a customized platform or an integrated SDK (software development kit), which has the following deficiencies: [0004] 1) Adopting a customized platform: the purchase fee of a customized platform is high, and generally requ...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1) Adopting a customized platform: the purchase fee of a customized platform is high, and generally requires the installation of remote camera equipment of its specified specifications, and the procurement cost is high; moreover, the open source source code is not provided, and the video stream can only be played on the purchased customized platform, which has poor versatility , the video stream cannot be reused

Taking Haikang’s customized platform as an example, it needs to purchase authorization, which is expensive, and can only be connected to Haikang’s own equipment, and requires the camera equipment to have nvr (hard disk video recorder), requires an independent public network address, and the purchase cost is high; no open source is provided Source code, the video stream can only be pushed from NVR to Haikang’s customized platform for playback, and users cannot push the video stream to other platforms or network nodes, provide external services, conduct other business development, push to any streaming media server, and upload video Pull the stream to any terminal for playback, poor versatility

[0005] 2) Integrated SDK: use the integrated method, use the SDK provided by the manufacturer, and integrate each SDK separately, such as the SDK of Hikvision and Dahua. Its function is to expose some underlying interfaces related to the camera to developers, such as pulling video streams interface, so as to use FFmpeg (a set of open source computer programs that can be used to record, convert digital audio, video, and convert it into a stream) to push the video streams of various companies into streaming media servers for distribution. However, The SDK provided by the manufacturer is divided into a variety of different language interfaces, which have high technical requirements and require professional streaming media research and development capabilities. The research and development costs are high, and there will be problems such as upgrades over time. Moreover, such integration will lead to no general communication Agreement, not conducive to tripartite expansion
