I want to pass an h.264 or MJPEG RTSP stream from an IP camera directly to a webRTC session in a browser, without re-encoding. It has to be done in python, because the target is to have such RTSP/WebRTC gateway reside on the camera itself, which has a python interpreter. The stream is one way, to the browser only. I'm a python freshman, so any hints, ideas, or links to existing libraries are welcome.
I've seen the writeup at http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/800910/Broadcasting-of-a-Video-Stream-from-an-IP-camera-U, but this requires transcode to VP8 (and is not python).
Also reviewed the thread at Use an IP-camera with webRTC and looked at the Kurento media server (nodejs) and Janus gateway (C).
One of the commenters said "you could probably very easily use the native webrtc API and provide an RTSP stream through it." Do there exist any python bindings to the native WebRTC api? Am I deranged for even thinking such a gateway application is possible in python?
