# Simple video/audio Record Demo Using mediasoup 3 and GStreamer/FFmpeg

---

## Introduction

Simple video/audio record application using Mediasoup and GStreamer

Recorded files are stored in the server's files directory or the directory set by the user (via process.env.RECORD_FILE_LOCATION_PATH)

File names are simply the current timestamp

This sample currently only uses VP8/opus and the output file is .webm

---

## How to use

### Install GStreamer

```bash
# For Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-doc gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
```

### Install Server Modules

```bash
cd server && npm i
```

### Install App Modules

```bash
cd app && npm i
```

### Configure the server

Change the announced IP in src/config.js to your local ip (config -> webRtcTransport -> listenIps)

### Start the server

```bash
# The server uses FFmpeg as default
cd server && node src/server

# To use GStreamer
PROCESS_NAME="GStreamer" node src/server
```

### Build and start the application

```bash
cd app
npm run build

# Copy the files from dist to a webserver etc.
# OR start the dev server
npm run dev
```

### Access the sample page
https://localhost:8080

By default recorded videos will be available in `server/files` directory.

## TODO

- video/audio only recording
- Multiple formats (mp4/avi etc)
- Docker support

Like my work? Any support is appreciated.
