title: Best approach to get RTSP streaming into web browser from IP Camera?
body: <p>Is it possible to get the RTSP Streaming data into the web browser?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Below are some of my findings. Kindly correct me if I am wrong?</strong></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Only Mac OS, and Safari supports RTSP Live Streaming. </p></li>
  <li><p>HTML 5 video does not support RTSP. </p></li>
  <li><p>I can use the VLC plugin, but I don't want to use that. </p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p><strong>Possibility of mixing ffmpeg and websocket?</strong></p>
  
  <p>Assume my IP camera is connected with Ethernet.</p>
  
  <p>In the client machine:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>I run ffmpeg to get the data from server (ie: IP)</li>
  <li>Client machine runs websocket.</li>
  <li>Once ffmpeg gets the data from RTSP Server, it decodes, and generates the raw image of any format (for example: yuv). </li>
  <li>Now, i have to send this image to browser through websocket. </li>
  </ol>
  
  <p><strong>Question:</strong></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>It is the right approach ?</li>
  <li>How can I get the decoded image from ffmpeg into the browser ?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I might be wrong in different places. Kindly provide input. </p>
