rtmp-to-webrtc demonstrates how you could re-stream media from a RTMP server to WebRTC. This example was heavily inspired by rtp-to-webrtc
This example re-encodes to VP8. Pion WebRTC supports H264, but browser support is inconsistent. To switch video codecs replace all occurrences
of VP8 with H264 in main.go
export GO111MODULE=on
go install github.com/pion/example-webrtc-applications/v3/rtmp-to-webrtc@latest
jsfiddle.net you should see two text-areas and a 'Start Session' button
In the jsfiddle the top textarea is your browser's SessionDescription, copy that and:
Run echo $BROWSER_SDP | rtmp-to-webrtc
- Paste the SessionDescription into a file.
- Run
rtmp-to-webrtc < my_file
On startup you will get a message Waiting for RTP Packets
, you can use any software to send VP8 packets to port 5004 and Opus packets to port 5006. We have an example using ffmpeg below
ffmpeg -i '$RTMP_URL' -an -vcodec libvpx -cpu-used 5 -deadline 1 -g 10 -error-resilient 1 -auto-alt-ref 1 -f rtp rtp://127.0.0.1:5004?pkt_size=1200 -vn -c:a libopus -f rtp rtp:/127.0.0.1:5006?pkt_size=1200
Copy the text that rtmp-to-webrtc
just emitted and copy into second text area
A video should start playing in your browser above the input boxes.
Congrats, you have used Pion WebRTC! Now start building something cool
