# Live-Streaming-Server-Net
[](https://www.nuget.org/packages/LiveStreamingServerNet/)
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)
[](https://www.jetbrains.com/community/opensource)
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](https://josephnhtam.github.io/live-streaming-server-net/) for more details.
## Features
- **RTMP/RTMPS protocol**: Supports the RTMP and RTMPS protocols for streaming audio, video, and data.
- **RTMP Relay**: Supports relaying RTMP streams between servers, allowing building a scalable RTMP server cluster.
- **RTMP Client**: Provides a client library for connecting to RTMP servers and publishing/subscribing live streams.
- **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.
- **Codecs**: Supports AVC/H.264, HEVC/H.265, AAC, and MP3 codecs.
## In-Progress
- **Custom Kubernetes Operator and Kubernetes Integration**: The objective is to achieve horizontal autoscaling by scaling out the pods when more streams are published, and scaling in the pods when streams are deleted, all without affecting the existing connections.
- **Redis Integration**: Integrate with Redis to share stream information among pods in the fleet.
## 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
```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 -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`.
4. Click the "Play" button to start playing the live stream.
---
### Serve FLV Live Streams
Create a ASP.NET CORE 8 Web API application project and add the dependencies
```
dotnet new webapi
dotnet add package LiveStreamingServerNet
dotnet add package LiveStreamingServerNet.Flv
```
Program.cs
```cs
using System.Net;
using LiveStreamingServerNet;
using LiveStreamingServerNet.Flv.Installer;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddLiveStreamingServer(
new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 1935),
options => options.AddFlv()
);
var app = builder.Build();
app.UseWebSockets();
app.UseWebSocketFlv();
app.UseHttpFlv();
await app.RunAsync();
```
Run the application
```
dotnet run --urls="https://+:8080"
```
#### Play FLV Live Streams
Given a live stream is published to `rtmp://localhost:1935/live/demo`
**HTTP-FLV**
```
https://localhost:8080/live/demo.flv
```
**WebSocket-FLV**
```
wss://localhost:8080/live/demo.flv
```
#### Remux RTMP Streams into HLS Streams with FFmpeg
