RTSP to WebRTC with AV1 codec

[Ben Parham]

Hello everyone,

I have a question about streaming from IP Camera. I want to send stream from IP Camera (video codecs are H264 or H265) and I receive it and I transcode it to AV1 (like SVT-AV1) in local transcoder box (it has high CPU power to live transcoding to AV1) and then I send it to WebRTC server with AV1 codec, and the receiver can watch it on Chrome web browser or any other WebRTC player. Is it possible to do it with Janus WebRTC Server? I would appreciate your help.

Best Regards,

Ben.

Janus will not transcode, you have to do it yourself, e.g., with ffmpeg or gstreamer. Once that's done, you can send the output via RTP to a mountpoint in the Janus Streaming plugin to turn it into a WebRTC broadcast.
