rtp-forwarder
rtp-forwarder is a simple application that shows how to forward your webcam/microphone via RTP using Pion WebRTC.
Instructions
Download rtp-forwarder
export GO111MODULE=on
go get github.com/cpdevs/webrtc/v3/examples/rtp-forwarder
Open rtp-forwarder example page
jsfiddle.net you should see your Webcam, two text-areas and Copy browser SDP to clipboard, Start Session buttons
Run rtp-forwarder, with your browsers SessionDescription as stdin
In the jsfiddle the top textarea is your browser's Session Description. Press Copy browser SDP to clipboard or copy the base64 string manually.
We will use this value in the next step.
Linux/macOS
Run echo $BROWSER_SDP | rtp-forwarder
Windows
- Paste the SessionDescription into a file.
- Run
rtp-forwarder < my_file
Input rtp-forwarder's SessionDescription into your browser
Copy the text that rtp-forwarder just emitted and copy into second text area
Hit 'Start Session' in jsfiddle and enjoy your RTP forwarded stream!
You can run any of these commands at anytime. The media is live/stateless, you can switch commands without restarting Pion.
VLC
Open rtp-forwarder.sdp with VLC and enjoy your live video!
ffmpeg/ffprobe
Run ffprobe -i rtp-forwarder.sdp -protocol_whitelist file,udp,rtp to get more details about your streams
Run ffplay -i rtp-forwarder.sdp -protocol_whitelist file,udp,rtp to play your streams
You can add -fflags nobuffer -flags low_delay -framedrop to lower the latency. You will have worse playback in networks with jitter. Read about minimizing the delay on Stackoverflow.
