When we start a stream from CLI the localpath is where our live video file is stored (its size gets changed.). It is read segment by segment by ffmpeg, each segment is converted to the .ts video file, and stored in the remotepath. The number of seconds in each segment is specified by the delay.
Live video and audio are captured from the browser. The captured file is broken into segments is transcoded to the .ts video file using ffmpeg.wasm within browser. Each transcoded segment is then uploaded to the remotepath specified.
The video file is uploaded to the remotepath directory.
A live.m3u8 file is created where continuous download of the video segment takes place.
