rtmp-to-webrtc
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
Instructions
Download rtmp-to-webrtc
export GO111MODULE=on
go get github.com/pion/example-webrtc-applications/v3/rtmp-to-webrtc
Open jsfiddle example page
jsfiddle.net you should see two text-areas and a 'Start Session' button
Run rtmp-to-webrtc with your browsers SessionDescription as stdin
In the jsfiddle the top textarea is your browser's SessionDescription, copy that and:
Linux/macOS
Run echo $BROWSER_SDP | rtmp-to-webrtc
Windows
- Paste the SessionDescription into a file.
- Run
rtmp-to-webrtc < my_file
Send RTP to listening socket
On startup you will get a message Waiting for RTP Packets, you can use any software to send VP8 packets to port 5004 and Opus packets to port 5006. We have an example using ffmpeg below
ffmpeg
ffmpeg -i '$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
Input rtmp-to-webrtc's SessionDescription into your browser
Copy the text that rtmp-to-webrtc just emitted and copy into second text area
Hit 'Start Session' in jsfiddle, enjoy your video!
A video should start playing in your browser above the input boxes.
Congrats, you have used Pion WebRTC! Now start building something cool
