OvenMediaEngine

Open-Source, LLHLS, and WebRTC Streaming Server

OvenMediaEngine (OME) is an Open-Source Streaming Server that can stream high-definition live streams over Low Latency HLS (LLHLS) and WebRTC to hundreds of thousands of viewers with sub-second latency. OME can ingest live streams over WebRTC, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, and MPEG2-TS protocols, encode them to ABR with the embedded live transcoder, and stream them to viewers over LLHLS and WebRTC. With OvenMediaEngine, you can build your powerful and sub-second latency media service very easily.

OvenPlayer

OvenPlayer is a JavaScript-based Open-Source Player that can play WebRTC and LLHLS streams optimized for OvenMediaEngine. It provides various APIs, so you can build and operate your media service more easily.

OvenLiveKit

OvenLiveKit is a JavaScript-based Open-Source Live Streaming Encoder that supports WebRTC optimized for OvenMediaEngine. It relies on the browser's WebRTC API and wraps it to make it easy for you to broadcast WebRTC streams to OME.

Demo

OvenSpace is a demo service using OvenMediaEngine as a streaming server, OvenPlayer as a player, and OvenLiveKit as a live streaming encoder. This service allows 9 broadcasters to broadcast at the same time, and a large number of people can watch. It is also released as an open-source.
