- Supports RTSP, RTMP/RTMPE/RTMPT/RTMPTE, and HTTP.
- Supports only H.264 video and AAC audio (AAC-LC, HE-AAC v1/v2).
$ git clone https://github.com/iizukanao/node-rtsp-rtmp-server.git
$ cd node-rtsp-rtmp-server
$ npm install -d
Also, install CoffeeScript 1.x or 2.x.
Edit config.coffee
.
$ cd node-rtsp-rtmp-server
$ sudo coffee server.coffee
or use Node.js directly:
$ cd node-rtsp-rtmp-server
$ coffee -c *.coffee
$ sudo node server.js
If both serverPort
and rtmpServerPort
are >= 1024 in config.coffee
, sudo
is not needed.
If you would prefer building and executing this code in a docker container, you can do so by first building the container and then running it.
$ make build
$ make console
You may also want to use just make run
to run the container as a daemon. If you fiddle with the ports, you'll need to update the values in the Makefile as well to expose the desired ports to your system.
MP4 files in file
directory will be accessible at either:
- rtsp://localhost:80/file/FILENAME
- rtmp://localhost/file/mp4:FILENAME
For example, file/video.mp4 is available at rtmp://localhost/file/mp4:video.mp4
If you have an MP4 file with H.264 video and AAC audio:
$ ffmpeg -re -i input.mp4 -c:v copy -c:a copy -f flv rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME
Or if you have an MP4 file that is encoded in other audio/video format:
$ ffmpeg -re -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset fast -c:a libfdk_aac -ab 128k -ar 44100 -f flv rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME
Replace input.mp4
with live audio/video sources.
You can publish streams from RTSP client such as FFmpeg.
$ ffmpeg -re -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset fast -c:a libfdk_aac -ab 128k -ar 44100 -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:80/live/STREAM_NAME
Or you can publish it over TCP instead of UDP, by specifying -rtsp_transport tcp
option. TCP is favorable if you publish large data from FFmpeg.
$ ffmpeg -re -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset fast -c:a libfdk_aac -ab 128k -ar 44100 -f rtsp -rtsp_transport tcp rtsp://localhost:80/live/STREAM_NAME
For an MP4 file with H.264 video and AAC audio:
$ gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=input.mp4 ! qtdemux name=demux ! \
flvmux name=mux streamable=true ! queue ! \
rtmpsink location='rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME' demux. ! \
multiqueue name=mq ! h264parse ! mux. demux. ! mq. mq. ! aacparse ! mux.
Replace input.mp4
with live audio/video sources.
For an RTSP source (at rtsp://192.168.1.1:5000/video1 in this example):
$ gst-launch-0.10 rtspsrc location=rtsp://192.168.1.1:5000/video1 ! decodebin ! \
x264enc bitrate=256 tune=zerolatency ! h264parse ! flvmux name=mux streamable=true ! \
queue ! rtmpsink location='rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME'
RTSP stream is for VLC media player or Android's VideoView.
RTSP URL: rtsp://localhost:80/live/STREAM_NAME
Note that the RTSP server runs on port 80 by default.
RTMP stream is also available.
RTMP URL: rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME
If you have rtmpdump installed, you can record the video with:
$ rtmpdump -v -r rtmp://localhost/live/STREAM_NAME -o dump.flv
