Hello @hathemi,  
I would be nice if you could give more information, about what you are trying to achieve. Probably you have already searched on the forum for related topics, but those were not of any help to you?

First thank you for respond. as i mentioned before, i want to insert a streaming into dashboard.  
i have tried this code on a template

`<iframe width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" src="http://xxx.xxx.x.x/html" allowfullscreen></iframe>`

but i get "xxx.xxx.x.x refused to connect" !!  
i wonder if there's a configuration to make on mobile phone or a plugin !?

Ah ok,  
you want to show the dashboard on your mobile. From the title '_video **from** my mobile **into** dashboard_' I assumed you wanted e.g. to capture your mobile phone camera and show it into your dashboard ...

The URL you are referring to, is that an ip camera or something else? Do you need perhaps to specify a username/password? You can also have a look at another [discussion](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/solved-how-to-use-iframe-to-resize-ip-cam-stream-in-the-dashboard/11889/29) from this week, which is rather similar to what you are doing ...

</div>

If you put `http://xxx.xxx.x.x/html` into the browser on the machine where you are trying to view the dashboard does it show the video?

no it doesn't show anything  
this code from [discussion](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/solved-how-to-use-iframe-to-resize-ip-cam-stream-in-the-dashboard/11889/29) works for me

```auto
src="http://xxx.xxx.x.x:7777/video?
        user=xxxx
        %26pwd=xxxx
        %26resolution=32
        %26rate=0"

```

If you work out how to do it in a browser then that should work in an iframe in the dashboard.

Is this the same question you have asked here ? [How to display video from phone in dashboard via protocol RTMP](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-display-video-from-phone-in-dashboard-via-protocol-rtmp/12098/9)

Well, I think this has been discussed a couple of times??? Just use the browser in the phone to view your dashboard provided you serve the dashboard with live video (has also been covered in several topics already)
