MediaMTX is a ready-to-use and zero-dependency real-time media server and media proxy that allows to publish, read, proxy, record and playback video and audio streams. It has been conceived as a "media router" that routes media streams from one end to the other.
- Publish live streams to the server with SRT, WebRTC, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, MPEG-TS, RTP
- Read live streams from the server with SRT, WebRTC, RTSP, RTMP, HLS
- 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)
- Record streams to disk in fMP4 or MPEG-TS format
- Playback recorded streams
- 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.
