Video Streaming

ATAK allow users to connect into a video feed provider, it was designed to be allow video feed from street camera, drones, and operator cameras, we can simulate this in Arma 3 by creating a video stream from the screen and sharing it into a MediaMTX server. You can find information about installing MediaMTX here, and it also comes installed with OpenTakServer by default, just make sure it is working by going into the OTS Web UI and generating a video stream from the browser. ARMATAK can create/stop a video feed from Arma 3 using FFMEG, here is how:

  1. Make sure you have a configured RTSP video stream protocol provider like MediaMTX configured, if you have installed OTS using the default installation script it should be there
  2. Install FFMPEG for Windows on the streamer's machine
  3. Open the mission
  4. Add the ARMATAK Video Provider Module in 3Den Editor and fill the MediaMTX Address, Port and authentication from a user (usually administrator, password)
  5. In game, you or your player's can start a video stream using the ACE Self Action menu

ARMATAK

This is a Arma 3 addon for streaming unit locations to TAK End User Devices.
