Restreamer is an open-source software application that lets you take any video source and stream it to multiple platforms simultaneously. It's easy to use and highly customizable. This tutorial will guide you through the steps of installing Restreamer on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Docker is a prerequisite for running Restreamer. If you don't already have it installed, run the following command:
sudo dnf install docker
This will install the Docker engine on your system. After the installation is complete, start the Docker service:
sudo systemctl start docker
You can check the status of Docker by running:
sudo systemctl status docker
Now that Docker is installed, we can proceed to install Restreamer. To do so, run the following command:
sudo docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name restreamer --restart always datarhei/restreamer
This command will pull the latest Restreamer image from Docker Hub and starts it as a daemon process. The --name option specifies the name of the container, and the --restart option causes Docker to automatically restart the container if it fails or crashes.
The -p option maps the container's port 8080 to the host's port 8080. This means you can access Restreamer's web interface by pointing your browser to http://<your-server-IP>:8080/.
Now that Restreamer is up and running, you can configure it to fit your needs. Open your web browser and navigate to http://<your-server-IP>:8080/. Restreamer's web interface should load.
From here, you can add and configure video sources (such as IP cameras, webcams, and RTSP streams), set up RTMP endpoints (such as Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch), and customize the stream settings to suit your needs.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Restreamer on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. With Restreamer, you can easily stream live video to multiple platforms simultaneously with ease.
Happy streaming!
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
