This software is designed to be the part of the VIDI open studio automation project. It consists of client and server parts.

The client part is a simple js/html5 web page. It contains several RTMP-player instances ("slots") with titles/controls/additional info for each one. Main features of the client part are:

• Playing RTMP streams in "slots" according to the data provided by the server part
• Sending control commands to nginx-rtmp-module
• "Tally" - indication which slot is on air and/or selected for preview

The server part gets RTMP streams statistics from several nginx-rtmp-module servers and creates an aggregated version of this statistic. This aggregated version can be obtained via http or websocket protocol. Main features of the server part are:

• Statistic aggregation from several nginx-rtmp-module servers
• Assignment of RTMP streams to the slots according to the configuration
• Providing API for marking slots as on air and/or selected for preview
• Providing HTTP/WebSocket API calls for retrieving aggregated active streams statistics from several nginx-rtmp-module servers
• Controlling RTMP streams server-to-server routings by providing HTTP callback end-points for nginx-rtmp-module

The client part gets its config from http-request, the server part gets its config from the file. They can use the same config or different ones. We consider the provided server configuration example at /multiview/.../.../....json quite self-explanatory.
