HLS stream generated live by VLC (hls5 from rtp_int)

This page embeds a live HLS stream erogated by my website through VLC and its source stream equally generated by VLC and proxed by apache
In cascade a further call of VLC is done to create a realtime hls stream (hls5.m3u8)
from http://iginomanfre.it/rtp_int

Vero collegamento rtp punto punto via internet.
Il flusso rtp_int e' un rtp generato internamente (a partire da un file .mp4) e destinato sulla porta 99 che provvede a ritrasmetterlo sulla porta in http 88 come http://iginomanfre.it/rtp_int (flusso visibile con VLC) e poi splittato in hls5 in tempo reale.
rtp_int e' erogato dal server stesso e quindi e' il caso presente e' la parte destra della immagine.

Real rtp point to point link via the internet.
The rtp_int stream is an internally generated rtp (starting from an .mp4 file) and targeted to its port 99 which retransmits it on the port 88 in http as http://iginomanfre.it/rtp_int (stream visible with VLC) and then split into hls5 in real time.
rtp_int is stream by the server itself thus this case is represented by the right part of the image./p>

<video> tag used to open a .mp4 video file with type application video/mp4 it works everywhere with any browser.

The splitting activity of the stream is performed by vlc with a batch continously running that ingest the rtp_int - internally generated - and splits in transport stream chops each one approx 10 seconds long listing them in a metafile (a playlist with extension .m3u8). In its place could be used the rtp_ext transmitted from outside on fixed port.
The full documentation about this usage of vlc can be found on the web but it must be interpolated and tested).

This is the hls5.m3u8 file at a certain time.
The metafile is continously updated

This is the list of all the segments present in the hls5 directory at that time:
as you can see there are the 10 segments listed in the hls5.m3u8 plus the 10 before...
