Monitor Stream Status

Stream Monitor checks Stream status through its logs. It exposes a single API endpoint that returns the status of each camera (running or offline). The command python stream_monitor.py starts a web server that returns the status of each camera. For example:

{"active": true, "cameras": {"camera-1": {"status": "running"}}}

See instructions and examples on our GitHub.

Monitor Stream Activity

The Stream Activity Status feature provides users with a visual representation of the activity status of their stream licenses. The following symbols and colors are used to indicate the status of each stream:

• All Active: ✅
• Partially Active: ⚠️
• Inactive: ❌
• Not Installed: ✘

Users can click on the activity status to view more detailed information about the activity status of each stream license.

Setting Up Inactivity Notifications

Users can also set up inactivity notifications for their stream licenses. This will notify user via email if there's no activity on the license for a defined period of time. This can be done through the "Setup Notification" dropdown located in the manage section of the license settings.

1. Navigate to the "Manage" section of your license settings.
2. Locate the "Setup Notification" dropdown.
3. Choose your desired notification settings.
4. Ensure that the notification interval is set to more than 8 hours to avoid unnecessary notifications.

By utilizing the Stream Activity Monitor feature and setting up inactivity notifications, users can effectively monitor the status of their streams and stay informed about any potential issues.
