Live-Streaming-Server-Net

Live-Streaming-Server-Net is a high-performance and flexible toolset that allows you to build your own live streaming server using .NET.

Please check the documentation for more details.

Features

• RTMP/RTMPS protocol: Supports the RTMP and RTMPS protocols for streaming audio, video, and data.
• HTTP-FLV/WebSocket-FLV with ASP.NET CORE: Provides support for serving FLV live streams using HTTP-FLV and WebSocket-FLV protocols within an ASP.NET Core application.
• Transmuxing RTMP streams into HLS streams: Allows you to transmux RTMP streams into HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) streams using the built-in HLS transmuxer.
• Transcoding RTMP streams into Adaptive HLS streams: Integrates with FFmpeg to transcode RTMP streams into multiple-bitrate Adaptive HLS streams.
• Integration with FFmpeg: Provides support for processing the incoming RTMP stream with FFmpeg, for example, to create an MP4 archive.
• GOP caching: Supports caching the Group of Pictures (GOP) to ensure immediate availability of live streaming content.
• Custom authorization: Enables you to implement custom authorization mechanisms for accessing live streams.
• Admin panel: Includes an admin panel that provides an user interface for managing and monitoring the live streaming server.
• Cloud Storage Integration: Enabling real-time uploading of HLS files to cloud storage services like Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage, and AWS S3, which ensures scalable and efficient HLS stream distribution through CDN.

Quick Start

Run the RTMP Server

Create a .NET 8 console application project and add the dependencies

dotnet new console
dotnet add package LiveStreamingServerNet
dotnet add package Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Console

Program.cs

using LiveStreamingServerNet;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;
using System.Net;

using var server = LiveStreamingServerBuilder.Create()
    .ConfigureLogging(options => options.AddConsole())
    .Build();

await server.RunAsync(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 1935));

Run the application

dotnet run

Publish a Live Stream

With FFmpeg

Use the following command to publish a video as the live stream using FFmpeg

ffmpeg -re -i <input_file> -c:v libx264 -c:a aac -f flv rtmp://localhost:1935/live/demo

With OBS Studio

1. Open OBS Studio and go to "Settings".
2. In the "Settings" window, select the "Stream" tab.
3. Choose "Custom" as the "Service".
4. Enter "Server": rtmp://localhost:1935/live and "Stream Key": demo.
5. Click "OK" to save the settings.
6. Click the "Start Streaming" button in OBS Studio to begin sending live stream to the RTMP server.

Play the Live Stream

With FFplay

Use the following command to play the live stream using FFplay

ffplay rtmp://localhost:1935/live/demo

With VLC Media Player

1. Open VLC Media Player.
2. Go to the "Media" menu and select "Open Network Stream".
3. In the "Network" tab, enter the URL: rtmp://localhost:1935/live/demo.
