IPTV Live Video Encoding & Streaming SRT

Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) is an open source video transport protocol developed originally by Haivision. It works on UDP but provides reliable transmission similar to TCP, by utilising similar methods for connection, sequence numbers, acknowledgements and re-transmission of lost packets. SRT makes it possible to send MPEG transport streams over the public internet.

Stream from SRT Source

Streaming from SRT source is like streaming from HTTP. Just choose srt as source type and enter srt url in source address, like srt://192.168.1.2:1234

Note: SRT source works in caller mode by default. i.e. It initiates connection to the source server to start streaming. If you want to switch to listener mode instead, change address to a local host address with option "mode=listener", for example srt://0.0.0.0:1234?mode=listener. In this case, it waits until the remote peer connects and starts streaming then.

Stream P2P SRT Output

Choose SRT in Target Format and enter destination IP address you want to deliver to. For example srt://0.0.0.0:1234.

Note: SRT output works in listener mode by default. i.e. It waits for remote peer to connect to start streaming. If you want to switch to caller mode instead, change address to a remote host address with option "mode=caller", like srt://192.168.1.2:1234?mode=caller. In this case, it initiates connection to remote and starts streaming.
