The best way to get started with Phenix is to try it out with your own demo channel using a web browser and a content source such as a webcam. Phenix’s pre-built examples for the web make publishing and viewing content quick and simple.

All modern browsers support WebRTC. A list of supported browsers can be found here: https://phenixrts.com/docs/web/#browser-support

The examples below use “#YourDemoChannelAlias” as the channel alias.

Publishing

To publish to a demo channel via a browser, use the URL: https://demo.phenixrts.com/channel/publish/#YourDemoChannelAlias

Publish your webcam by selecting the desired options and clicking the red cloud up-arrow icon.

Open

The screen will indicate the video and audio bitrates.

Open

Alternatively, you can select the link icon on the left to specify a media URI to use as a content source, or the astronaut icon to access advanced options.

Subscribing

View the output of the published demo channel by clicking the View Channel link or by using the URL: https://demo.phenixrts.com/channel/#YourDemoChannelAlias

You can put the two browsers side by side to see the amount of delay from publishing to viewing.

To stop publishing, either click the red X or close the browser tab that is publishing.
