How To Set Up A Live Video Stream Over LAN With Raspberry Pi & Linux

Today I'm showing how to set up a live video stream using your Raspberry Pi’s camera that can be viewed from any computer connected to your home network. It uses the RTSP protocol as the server and FFMPEG for video codecs. These packages will work on desktops and laptops running Linux also, but a few of the steps and configurations will be slightly different.

As a result, the commands I used in this video will no longer work. The written version of this tutorial has been updated on my website, so go to https://phazertech.com/tutorials/rtsp.html to see the new commands. VLC Media Player: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (If using Debian/Ubuntu, do not download from the repository as it has dropped support for RTSP. Download the flatpak version.)
