# SRT stream
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I occasionally stream videos games or miscellaneous stuff to my friends over
|
||
|
|
[SRT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Reliable_Transport) at
|
||
|
|
[srt://shione.net:60000](srt://shione.net:60000).
|
||
|

|
# Connecting to a passphrase-protected stream
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For those who received a passphrase to connect to a supposedly private stream,
|
||
|
|
the URL becomes `srt://shione.net:60000?passphrase=PASSPHRASE_HERE`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Media players
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### mpv
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Your mileage may vary, feel free to tweak the options a bit for your own
|
||
|
|
comfort.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
$ mpv --no-resume-playback --no-pause --cache-pause-wait=0.1 'srt://shione.net:60000'
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### VLC
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OBS has a wiki page on how to setup VLC to watch an SRT stream, see [VLC
|
||
|
|
usage](https://obsproject.com/wiki/Streaming-With-SRT-Or-RIST-Protocols#vlc-usage).
|
||

|
|
## Deployment
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `srt-live-transmit`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Under the hood, I use
|
||
|
|
[`srt-live-transmit`](https://github.com/Haivision/srt/blob/master/docs/apps/srt-live-transmit.md)
|
||
|
|
from [`srt-tools`](https://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/srt-tools) because
|
||
|
|
my use case is extremely simple. However, I should invest more time into
|
||
|
|
understanding how I can deliver a better quality stream with less/no artifacts.
