MediaMTX is a ready-to-use and zero-dependency live media server and media proxy that allows to publish, read, proxy, record and playback real-time video and audio streams. It has been conceived as a "media router" that routes media streams from one end to the other, with a focus on efficiency and portability.

Features

  • Publish streams to the server with Media-over-QUIC, SRT, WebRTC, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, MPEG-TS, RTP, using FFmpeg, GStreamer, OBS Studio, Python , Golang, Unity, Web browsers, Raspberry Pi Cameras and more.
  • Read streams from the server with Media-over-QUIC, SRT, WebRTC, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, using FFmpeg, GStreamer, VLC, OBS Studio, Python , Golang, Unity, Web browsers and more.
  • Streams are automatically converted from a protocol to another
  • Serve several streams at once in separate paths
  • Reload the configuration without disconnecting existing clients (hot reloading)
  • Serve always-available streams even when the publisher is offline
  • Record streams to disk in fMP4 or MPEG-TS format
  • Playback recorded streams from disk
  • Authenticate users with internal, HTTP or JWT authentication
  • Forward streams to other servers
  • Proxy requests to other servers
  • Control the server through the Control API
  • Extract metrics from the server in a Prometheus-compatible format
  • Monitor performance to investigate CPU and RAM consumption
  • Run hooks (external commands) when clients connect, disconnect, read or publish streams
  • Compatible with Linux, Windows and macOS, does not require any dependency or interpreter, it's a single executable
  • ...and many others.
