your camera is operational and that we can continue with our exercise.

But do not worry: this is not click bait but just SEO optimized link title :) Compatibility with browser I have to admit that article's title is a bit misleading because it is not actually possible to stream video to browser using only GStreamer.

make processed stream available for multiple, browser oriented viewers (we'll use simple WEB server).

process and convert video stream in format "compatible" with browsers (again GStreamer).

stream it to dedicated Wowza-like server for additional post-processing (we'll create a simple media server ourselves using GStreamer and WEB server).
