SRT Mini Server 2.5: Major Update

It's been a few months since the last release, and today we are pleased to bring you version 2.5 of SRT Mini Server. This update brings significant changes to the internal architecture and functionality based on your feedback and requests.

Previously SRT Mini Server supported reading RTMP streams only in pull mode. Now in version 2.5 support for push mode is implemented, which allows to accept RTMP streams directly from various RTMP encoders, such as GoPro cameras, DJI drones and others.

This greatly expands the capabilities of SRT Mini Server, allowing you to use it to work with a wide range of devices. The option to work through an RTMP proxy server is also retained for when you don't have a dedicated IP address.

RTMP integration opens up additional possibilities, such as synchronization of multiple RTMP cameras.

SRT Mini Server can now receive WebRTC streams via WHEP protocol.

This means that you can use SRT Mini Server to capture WebRTC streams from popular services such as VDO.ninja or Millicast (Dolby.io), and further transfer to SDI or NDI.

* The server must support WHEP for connection.

Now it can be used as a Switcher to switch sources when outputting to SDI/NDI

One of our clients faced the need to record a video stream at night. To save him from having to start and stop recording manually, we developed a special external API.
This API is easily integrated with the standard Windows TaskScheduler.
Thus, our client can sleep soundly, being sure that the recording is turned on and off exactly on schedule.

Added a mode for continuous dumping of incoming SRT streams into a single file.
This function complements the standard recording mode and can be used to analyze streams or their further processing (see ts_dump_* options here)

• Added UDP multicast with transcoding.

• Changed delay functionality - now it can be used to smooth out breaks in the clip.

The synchronization algorithm has been completely redesigned and improved.
By working closely with our users using the LTC method at large event, we have achieved much more accurate real-time synchronization.

Added support for SMPTE 2022-7 protocol - seamless switching between channels, which is especially important for large TV channels. More detailed info about this see here >>>
NOTES: this add-on is available on request.

Now the trial period has been extended to one year and the splash screen appears less frequently (every 10 minutes, literally for 2 seconds). This will allow SRTMiniServer to be used for educational purposes and for short streams.
