IRL SRT to VDO.Ninja
Send a mobile SRT feed into VDO.Ninja using Meshcast as the bridge.
Quick Navigation
Overview
Publish from a mobile encoder via SRT into Meshcast, then view that stream in VDO.Ninja using the WHEP watch link.
Requirements
- Registered (free) Meshcast account (SRT ingest).
- SRT-capable mobile encoder (Larix, Haivision Play, etc.).
- VDO.Ninja for viewing.
Step-by-step
-
Copy the SRT ingest URL
In Meshcast Studio, use the SRT URL for your Publish Key (
pk_...). - Configure your mobile encoder Set the SRT mode to Caller, paste the URL, and set a stable bitrate.
- Start streaming Confirm the stream is live in Meshcast.
-
Open the VDO.Ninja view link
Use the WHEP watch link from Meshcast in VDO.Ninja. If playback needs extra smoothing, add VDO.Ninja's
&buffer=500option to the VDO.Ninja playback URL.
Notes
Network stability
SRT handles packet loss well, but lower bitrates help keep mobile streams stable.
Buffer placement
&buffer=500 is a VDO.Ninja playback option. It does not tune Meshcast SRT ingest. For SRT ingest, tune the URL's latency value instead.
