SRS(Simple Realtime Server)
SRS/6.0 (Hang) is a simple, high-efficiency, and real-time video server,
supporting RTMP/WebRTC/HLS/HTTP-FLV/SRT/MPEG-DASH/GB28181, Linux/Windows/macOS, X86_64/ARMv7/AARCH64/M1/RISCV/LOONGARCH/MIPS,
and essential features.
Note: For more details on the single-node architecture for SRS, please visit the following link.
SRS is licenced under MIT or MulanPSL-2.0.
Please note that while MulanPSL-2.0 is compatible with Apache-2.0,
some third-party libraries are distributed under their licenses.
Usage
Please refer to the Getting Started or 中文文档：起步 guide.
To compile SRS from source:
git clone -b develop https://gitee.com/ossrs/srs.git &&
cd srs/trunk && ./configure && make && ./objs/srs -c conf/srs.conf
Open http://localhost:8080/ to verify, and then stream using the following
FFmpeg command:
ffmpeg -re -i ./doc/source.flv -c copy -f flv -y rtmp://localhost/live/livestream
Alternatively, stream by OBS using the following configuration:
- Service:
Custom
- Server:
rtmp://localhost/live
- Stream Key:
livestream
Play the following streams using media players:
Please note that to convert RTMP to WebRTC, you should use the file rtmp2rtc.conf.
Note: In addition to FFmpeg or OBS, it is possible to publish by H5 via WHIP as well.
To enable WebRTC to publish and convert it to RTMP, please refer to the wiki(CN, EN) documentation.
It is essential to ensure the candidate(CN or EN)
is set correctly for WebRTC to avoid potential issues, as it can cause significant problems.
Note: It is highly recommended to run SRS directly with docker(CN / EN),
CVM(CN / EN),
or K8s(CN / EN).
However, compiling SRS from source code is also possible and easy. For detailed instructions, please refer to the
"Getting Started"(CN / EN) guide.
Note: If you require HTTPS for WebRTC and modern browsers, please refer to the HTTPS API(CN / EN),
HTTPS Callback(CN / EN),
and HTTPS Live Streaming(CN / EN)
documentation. Additionally, SRS works perfectly with an HTTPS proxy like Nginx.
