SRS (Simple RTMP Server) is a streaming server software developed by ossrs.net, supporting multiple protocols, including RTMP, HLS, HTTP-FLV, and RTSP. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing SRS on MXLinux Latest.
Before installing SRS on MXLinux Latest, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
First, open a terminal window and update your system by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
SRS requires several dependencies to be installed before we start the installation. We can install all the required dependencies by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install -y \
build-essential git python pkg-config libssl-dev \
libpcre3-dev zlib1g-dev ffmpeg libavcodec-dev \
libavutil-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev
Next, clone SRS repository to your MXLinux system by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/ossrs/srs.git
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the srs directory by running the following command:
cd srs/trunk
Now, execute the following commands to build and install SRS:
./configure && make
sudo make install
After the installation is complete, start the SRS service by running the following command:
sudo srs -c conf/srs.conf
You should see the following message:
SRS is running on Port=1935
This means that SRS is up and running on your system.
In this tutorial, we have successfully installed SRS on MXLinux Latest. You can now start using SRS as your streaming server to support multiple protocols like RTMP, HLS, HTTP-FLV, and RTSP.
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!
