Quick Start

This article explains how to build your own application to control Video Transport native apps (VT_Publisher, VT_Receiver, and VT_Server) using Socket.IO. This is a great way to build a white-labeled solution based on Medialooks Video Transport technology. Currently available only with the on-prem edition of Video Transport.

Below, you can download our VT API sample written on C# and its source code.

How to run the SocketIOSample.exe:

1. Download Video Transport on each location that you are going to use in your scenario.

2. Start VT_Publisher.exe, VT_Receiver.exe or VT_Server.exe

3. Start SocketIOSample.exe

4. Load your special VT API license from the file and press Connect Button

5. The connection to signaling will be initiated.

You will need a special license to work with VT API which you can request through support or sales.

This license must have the following JSON properties:

• username

• password

• room_name (you can get it from publisher_id if it is present in your license)

• signaling_url
