Tips: If you're in China, use this image
registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/ossrs/srs:5
for faster speed.
Open https://localhost:8080/ to verify, and then stream using the following FFmpeg command:
ffmpeg -re -i ./doc/source.flv -c copy -f flv -y rtmp:https://localhost/live/livestream
Alternatively, stream by OBS using the following configuration:
- Service:
Custom
- Server:
rtmp:https://localhost/live
- Stream Key:
livestream
Play the following streams using media players:
- To play an RTMP stream with URL
rtmp:https://localhost/live/livestream
on VLC player, open the player, go to Media > Open Network Stream, enter the URL and click Play. - You can play HTTP-FLV stream URL https://localhost:8080/live/livestream.flv on a webpage using the srs-player, an HTML5-based player.
- Use srs-player for playing HLS stream with URL https://localhost:8080/live/livestream.m3u8.
If you'd like to use WebRTC, convert RTMP to WebRTC, or convert WebRTC to RTMP, please check out the wiki documentation in either English or Chinese.
