Orchid Fusion/Hybrid VMS supports Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC). This technology allows for viewing full-bandwidth, live and recorded H264 video streams within a web browser (without the need to download a plugin). Beginning in version 23.6, Orchid supports WebRTC retransmission by default. With WebRTC retransmission, the web browser can resend packets of video to Orchid to help ensure that the packets arrive. This improvement allows WebRTC to provide full-bandwidth video even in marginal network conditions.
WebRTC mode and Low-bandwidth mode are available in the following browsers:
- (Preferred) Latest version of Google Chrome, in a MacOS, Windows, or Linux desktop environment, or on a mobile device
- Latest version of Safari (mobile and desktop)
- Latest version of Mozilla Firefox
- Latest version of Microsoft Edge
All other web browsers support Low-bandwidth mode only. (For a detailed comparison of the two operating modes, please refer to the Comparing Operating Modes section.)
