TCP sources¶

kind = tcp — accepts Matroska-enveloped A/V streams over TCP.

TCP sources are assigned sequential ports starting from 10000 in the order they appear in mix/sources. The first TCP source listens on 10000, the second on 10001, and so on.

Example¶

[mix]
sources = cam1,cam2

[source.cam1]
kind = tcp

[source.cam2]
kind = tcp

This makes voctocore listen on port 10000 for cam1 and 10001 for cam2.

Sending a stream¶

Use ffmpeg to push a Matroska A/V stream to voctocore:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 \
  -f matroska -vcodec libx264 -acodec aac \
  tcp://localhost:10000
