This core module is responsible for managing the stream list.
go2rtc supports playing audio files (ex. music or TTS) and live streams (ex. radio) on cameras with two-way audio support.
API example:
POST http://localhost:1984/api/streams?dst=camera1&src=ffmpeg:http://example.com/song.mp3#audio=pcma#input=file
- you can stream: local files, web files, live streams or any format, supported by FFmpeg
- you should use ffmpeg source for transcoding audio to codec, that your camera supports
- you can check camera codecs on the go2rtc WebUI info page when the stream is active
- some cameras support only low quality
PCMA/8000codec (ex. Tapo) - it is recommended to choose higher quality formats if your camera supports them (ex.
PCMA/48000for some Dahua cameras) - if you play files over
httplink, you need to add#input=fileparams for transcoding, so the file will be transcoded and played in real time - if you play live streams, you should skip
#inputparam, because it is already in real time - you can stop active playback by calling the API with the empty
srcparameter - you will see one active producer and one active consumer in go2rtc WebUI info page during streaming
You can publish any stream to streaming services (YouTube, Telegram, etc.) via RTMP/RTMPS. Important:
- Supported codecs: H264 for video and AAC for audio
- AAC audio is required for YouTube; videos without audio will not work
- You don't need to enable RTMP module listening for this task
You can use the API:
POST http://localhost:1984/api/streams?src=camera1&dst=rtmps://...
Or config file:
publish:
# publish stream "video_audio_transcode" to Telegram
video_audio_transcode:
- rtmps://xxx-x.rtmp.t.me/s/xxxxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
# publish stream "audio_transcode" to Telegram and YouTube
audio_transcode:
- rtmps://xxx-x.rtmp.t.me/s/xxxxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
- rtmp://xxx.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
streams:
video_audio_transcode:
- ffmpeg:rtsp://user:pass@192.168.1.123/stream1#video=h264#hardware#audio=aac
audio_transcode:
- ffmpeg:rtsp://user:pass@192.168.1.123/stream1#video=copy#audio=aac- Telegram Desktop App > Any public or private channel or group (where you admin) > Live stream > Start with... > Start streaming.
- YouTube > Create > Go live > Stream latency: Ultra low-latency > Copy: Stream URL + Stream key.
You can preload any stream on go2rtc start. This is useful for cameras that take a long time to start up.
preload:
camera1: # default: video&audio = ANY
camera2: "video" # preload only video track
camera3: "video=h264&audio=opus" # preload H264 video and OPUS audio
streams:
camera1:
- rtsp://192.168.1.100/stream
camera2:
- rtsp://192.168.1.101/stream
camera3:
- rtsp://192.168.1.102/h265stream
- ffmpeg:camera3#video=h264#audio=opus#hardwarestreams:
