In this chapter, we are going to set up both live and recorded video streaming, using a web-based application. What this means for the user is that they can access either their recorded videos or a live stream from their home IP video camera, from their smartphone, or their tablet while being logged on to their home network.
In order to do this, we have to install some additional software on our BeagleBone. The instructions explained in this chapter are based on an excellent tutorial from HowtoForge:
