Thanks to FFmpeg, mimoLive can now offer SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) ingest support starting with version 6.0. Find more information on SRT at the SRT web site.
Setting up mimoLive as an SRT receiver
Create an FFmpeg source and enter these parameters into the FFmpeg Input Parameter field:
-i srt://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9998?pkt_size=1316&mode=listener
replacing the “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” with the local IP number of your Mac.
Sending SRT to mimoLive
In order to test the setup, you can also use ffmpeg to send a test signal to your SRT receiver. You should have a video file on your remote computer and ffmpeg installed. Then you can open the Terminal and issue this command:
ffmpeg -i testmovie.mp4 -acodec copy -vcodec copy -f mpegts srt://yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:9998?pkt_size=1316
where you need to replace “yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy” with the public IP number where your mimoLive Mac is reachable. This is most likely different from the local IP number.
