The official home for the Pixel Streaming servers and frontend!

The frontend and web server elements for Unreal Pixel Streaming (previously located in Samples/PixelStreaming/WebServers) are now in this repository, for all to contribute to. They are referred to as the Pixel Streaming Infrastructure.

Goals

The goals of this repository are to:

  • Increase the release cadence for the Pixel Streaming servers (to mitigate browser breaking changes sooner).
  • Encourage easier contribution of these components by Unreal Engine licensees.
  • Facilitate a more standard web release mechanism.
  • Grant a permissive license to distribute and modify this code wherever you see fit (MIT licensed).

Contents

The Pixel Streaming Infrastructure contains reference implementations for all the components needed to run a pixel streaming application. They are structured as separate projects, which work together, but designed to be modular and interoperable with other implementations which use WebRTC technology. These implementations include:

Releases

We release a number of different things under this repository, currently they are:

  • container images for the signalling server
  • npm packages for the frontend
  • source releases of this repo with the reference frontend built as a minified js bundle

Container images

The following container images are built from this repository:
