SRS (Simple Realtime Server) is an open source streaming server that can be used to stream live and on-demand video and audio content over the internet. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install SRS on POP! OS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
We need to install the following dependencies before installing SRS:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential git cmake bison flex libssl-dev libpcre3-dev libsdl2-dev
The next step is to clone the SRS repository to your system. We will use git to clone the repository.
git clone https://github.com/ossrs/srs.git
This will clone the SRS repository to your current working directory.
After cloning the SRS repository, change your current working directory to the srs directory.
cd srs/trunk
Now, we will build and install SRS using cmake.
sudo cmake .
sudo make
sudo make install
This will build and install SRS on your system.
The final step is to configure SRS. To configure SRS, we need to create a configuration file.
cd /usr/local/srs/conf/
sudo cp srs.conf.sample srs.conf
Now, we need to edit the srs.conf file to configure SRS.
sudo nano srs.conf
Find the following settings in the srs.conf file and change them as follows:
listen 1935;
max_connections 1000;
daemon off;
srs_log_tank file;
srs_log_file ./objs/srs.log;
Save and Exit the file.
Once you have finished configuring SRS, start the SRS service by running the following command:
sudo /usr/local/srs/sbin/srs -c /usr/local/srs/conf/srs.conf
This will start the SRS service.
You have successfully installed and configured SRS on your POP! OS Latest system. You can now use SRS to stream live and on-demand video and audio content over the internet.
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!
