Great Starting Guide for SRT. I would love to see an tutorial on how to deploy a real SRT ingestion Server with ffmpeg that. I played around with combinations of srt-live-transmit and ffmpeg. I couldn't get a reliable setup working for SRT ingestion and HLS web delivery. Rtmp Nginx module is simply still more reliable, which is unfortunate.

It may be useful to get guide about compilling ffmpeg with srt support. Not only static ffmpeg.

Thank you

Hello, could you tell me which command I receive an external SRT and convert it to a multicast UDP?

[@LiveTag]

please tell where to see the info for integrating SRT with NGINX. Is it possible to capture srt stream on nginx server?

[@srtlab]

There are nodejs bindings to SRT library github.com/Eyevinn/node-srt. It likely can be combined with NGINX somehow.

This is an example of why you should never drink an entire bottle of cough syrup just before recording a technical video for KZbin.

Whenever I try the step at 17:00, I get "Accepted SRT source connection". But right after that, I get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". It is apparently a memory error that I tried to correct installing the SRT binaries in different locations, without success. Do you know if there is something I can do to fix this? Thanks for your help, and awesome video!

[@srtlab]

Are you getting the segmentation fault in FFmpeg or FFplay? If in FFplay, then it might be something with rendering. Try without SRT (e.g. pure UDP) to check whether it is related to SRT. Also might be related to the version of SRT installed in the system, and the version of SRT FFplay was built with.

[@yotas1]

@@srtlab Thank you for answering! I ´m just dumb... I was trying to use ffplay on Putty... Everything is good now. Awesome song, btw!

I get "failed to open file 'fd:' or configure filtergraph" when running "srt-live-transmit srt://:4200 file://con | ffplay -f mpegts -"
