SRS is a simple, high efficiency and realtime video server, supports RTMP/WebRTC/HLS/HTTP-FLV/SRT.

SRS is licenced under MIT, but some depended libraries are distributed using their own licenses.

Usage

Build SRS from source or docker(CN / EN), please read Wiki: Gettting Started(CN / EN):

git clone -b 4.0release https://gitee.com/ossrs/srs.git &&
cd srs/trunk && ./configure && make && ./objs/srs -c conf/srs.conf

Open http://localhost:8080/ to check it, then publish by FFmpeg or OBS as:

ffmpeg -re -i ./doc/source.flv -c copy -f flv -y rtmp://localhost/live/livestream

Note: It's also able to publish by H5 if WebRTC is enabled.

Play the following streams by players:

• RTMP (by VLC): rtmp://localhost/live/livestream
• H5(HTTP-FLV): http://localhost:8080/live/livestream.flv
• H5(HLS): http://localhost:8080/live/livestream.m3u8
• H5(WebRTC): webrtc://localhost/live/livestream
