1. Project Overview

SimpleMediaServer

Introduction

Designed to develop a commercially viable streaming media service featuring rich functionality, high performance, and high scalability. Supports protocols such as RTSP, RTMP, WEBRTC, GB28181, HTTP-FLV, HLS, and JT1078. Each protocol can be independently separated and operated, or converted between different protocols. This project is developed using C++11 and currently supports Linux only.

Function

• RTSP

1. As a server, supports client-side stream pulling and pushing.
2. As a client, supports pulling and pushing streams to other servers.
3. Supports RTP over UDP and TCP.
4. Supports PS encapsulation for RTP.
5. Supports oversized RTP packets (type=huge or type=hugePs).
6. Supports accelerated PTS to reduce latency (type=fastPts).
7. Supports H.264/H.265/VP8/VP9 and AAC/G711/Opus.

• RTMP

1. As a server, supports client-side stream pulling and pushing.
2. As a client, supports pulling and pushing streams to other servers.
3. Supports enhanced H.265 (type=enhanced).

Installation Guide

1. mkdir build
2. cd build
3. cmake ..
4. make -j4
5. If SSL functionality is required, copy sms.com.crt and sms.com.key from the conf directory to the build directory.
6. If you need a frontend page example, copy research to the build directory. The default HTTP root directory is build.
7. The GCC version should preferably be greater than 8.
8. If you do not want to compile the source code, join the group and contact me for the binary executable.

Usage instructions

1. Check the configuration, such as server.conf, and copy it to the build directory.
2. Run the program: ./SimpleMediaServer
3. Push streams using FFmpeg: ffmpeg -re -i inputfile -c copy -f flv rtmp://ip:port/live/test
4. Play using VLC.
