ExRTMP

RTMP server and client library for Elixir.

Installation

The package can be installed by adding ex_rtmp to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:ex_rtmp, "~> 0.4.1"}
  ]
end

Enhanced RTMP is supported to some extent, there's a lack of support for Multitrack and ModEx packet types for audio and video.

See the examples folder.

A client publish to an RTMP server and the server stores into flv file.

To publish a stream to the server use ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -re -i input_file.mp4 -c:v copy -c:a copy -f flv rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test

The server stream an mp4 file to connected clients. The mp4 file must have AAC audio and H264/AVC video.

To start the server:

elixir examples/send_mp4.exs "input_file.mp4"

and to play the stream, you can use vlc or ffplay:

ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test

A client connects to an RTMP server and saves the stream into an flv file.

elixir examples/read_to_flv.exs "rtmp://localhost:1935/live" test output.flv

A client publishes an mp4 file to an RTMP server.
