 Getting Started • Shoutouts



# Getting Started

> To run the app you would need Docker and make - [Docker installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/v17.12/install/)

1. Clone or download the repo `git clone https://github.com/juniorxsound/libav-RTMP-Streaming.git`

2. Place an mp4 file you would like to stream in `samples/` folder

3. Create a `build` folder inside the root directory

4. From within the root directory run `make build` to create the Docker container

5. Open `main.cpp` and change the video file name and RTMP server address in line 12

```cpp

Streamer streamer("samples/your_video_test_file.mp4", "rtmp://your_rtmp_streaming_endpoint");

```

6. Run `make run` and if everything goes smooth, you should be live streaming your video file to the RTMP server ✨
