greetings! I'm trying to implement a video streaming application in django. the consumer of the video will be a mobile application which would stream and display the video. My requirement is to ensure that I stream the video (like in youtube), rather than downloading the video file and playing it on the device.
I did go through the various resources available. I have the following implemented currently.
urls.py
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from .views import video_stream
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path(r'videos/', video_stream, name='v_stream'),
#url(r'^media/', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
views.py
import os, mimetypes
from django.http import HttpResponseNotFound
from ranged_response import RangedFileResponse
from django.core.files.storage import default_storage
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage
from django.conf import settings
import urllib, mimetypes
from django.http import HttpResponse, Http404, StreamingHttpResponse, FileResponse
import os
from django.conf import settings
from wsgiref.util import FileWrapper
import requests
def video_stream(request):
r = requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/watermark.mp4', stream=True)
response = StreamingHttpResponse(streaming_content=r)
return response
when I run the application, I do not get the video playing, however, I get the following:
I tried using the vlc media player's stream from url function. I got the following error.
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).

I basically want to serve media files from my django application. and from a mobile application consume and stream the video file in an application.
I am using Xamarin forms for mobile application development.
Any help/guidance is deeply appreciated.
