![]() ![]() Since we need both the nginx-rtmp-module and nginx- vod-module, releasing our package was the only viable option. Before that, if you wanted to include additional modules, it had to be done statically during build time. The reason we package our own rather than use the official distros package is that Nginx only introduced DSO support starting from version 1.9.11. – kaltura-nginx: Nginx is available in the official repos of many Linux distributions. ![]() Those who want the cake, not the recipe, can skip this section and go right to the “Nginx RTMP Configuration” section. īelow is a very partial listing of dependencies that will be fetched and installed when running “`$YOUR_FAVOURITE_PACKAGE_MANAGER install kaltura-server“`.
