SRT stream

I occasionally stream videos games or miscellaneous stuff to my friends over SRT at srt://shione.net:60000.

Connecting to a passphrase-protected stream

For those who received a passphrase to connect to a supposedly private stream, the URL becomes srt://shione.net:60000?passphrase=PASSPHRASE_HERE.

Media players

mpv

Your mileage may vary, feel free to tweak the options a bit for your own comfort.

1
$ mpv --no-resume-playback --no-pause --cache-pause-wait=0.1 'srt://shione.net:60000'

VLC

OBS has a wiki page on how to setup VLC to watch an SRT stream, see VLC usage.

Deployment

srt-live-transmit

Under the hood, I use srt-live-transmit from srt-tools because my use case is extremely simple. However, I should invest more time into understanding how I can deliver a better quality stream with less/no artifacts.
