A very simple, high performance, edge WebRTC SFU
live777 is a high-performance WebRTC Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) designed for real-time video streaming and media distribution. It supports protocols like WHIP/WHEP, enabling seamless interoperability with WebRTC clients without requiring custom adaptations.
Key Features:
- WHIP/WHEP Protocol Support: Enables efficient communication between WebRTC applications.
- P2P/SFU Architecture: Focuses on media forwarding without resource-intensive tasks like transcoding or confluence.
- Multi-Platform Compatibility: Runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and multiple architectures (arm, x86).
- Efficient Media Handling: Works with tools like Gstreamer, FFmpeg, OBS Studio, and VLC to distribute streams effectively.
Audience & Benefit: Ideal for developers deploying WebRTC-based applications at the edge. It provides a reliable, low-latency solution for real-time media streaming and distribution, ensuring efficient performance without resource-heavy processing. The software can be installed via winget for easy setup.
README
Live777
This work is completed by Xidian University.
Live777 is an SFU server for real-time video streaming for the WHIP
/WHEP
as first protocol.
Live777 media server is used with Gstreamer, FFmpeg, OBS Studio, VLC, WebRTC and other clients to provide the ability to receive and distribute streams, and is a typical publishing (pushing) and subscription (playing) server model.
Live777 supports the conversion of audio and video protocols widely used in the Internet, such as RTP to WHIP or WHEP and other protocols.
Features
Live777 has the following characteristics:
-
📚 Support
WHIP
/WHEP
The WHIP/WHEP protocol is implemented to improve interoperability with other WebRTC application modules without the need for custom adaptations.
-
🗃️ P2P/SFU Mix architecture
Only responsible for forwarding, do not do confluence, transcoding and other resource overhead of the media processing work, the encoding and decoding work are respectively placed on the sender and the receiver.
-
🌐 Multiple platform support
Linux, MacOS, Windows, Android and arm, x86 with multi-platform native support.
