### Publish a webcam
Edit `rtsp-simple-server.yml` and replace everything inside section `paths` with the following content:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -b:v 600k -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
If the platform is Windows:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: ffmpeg -f dshow -i video="USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam" -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -b:v 600k -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
Where `USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam` is the name of your webcam, that can be obtained with:
```
ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy
```
After starting the server, the webcam can be reached on `rtsp://localhost:8554/cam`.
### Publish a Raspberry Pi Camera
Install dependencies:
1. _Gstreamer_ and _h264parse_:
```
sudo apt install -y gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-rtsp gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
```
2. _gst-rpicamsrc_, by following [instruction here](https://github.com/thaytan/gst-rpicamsrc)
Then edit `rtsp-simple-server.yml` and replace everything inside section `paths` with the following content:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: gst-launch-1.0 rpicamsrc preview=false bitrate=2000000 keyframe-interval=50 ! video/x-h264,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=25/1 ! h264parse ! rtspclientsink location=rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
After starting the server, the camera is available on `rtsp://localhost:8554/cam`.
### Remuxing, re-encoding, compression
To change the format, codec or compression of a stream, use _FFmpeg_ or _Gstreamer_ together with _rtsp-simple-server_. For instance, to re-encode an existing stream, that is available in the `/original` path, and publish the resulting stream in the `/compressed` path, edit `rtsp-simple-server.yml` and replace everything inside section `paths` with the following content:

### Webcam
To publish the video stream of a generic webcam to the server, edit `rtsp-simple-server.yml` and replace everything inside section `paths` with the following content:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -b:v 600k -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
If the platform is Windows:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: ffmpeg -f dshow -i video="USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam" -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -b:v 600k -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
Where `USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam` is the name of your webcam, that can be obtained with:
```
ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy
```
After starting the server, the webcam can be reached on `rtsp://localhost:8554/cam`.
### Raspberry Pi Camera
To publish the video stream of a Raspberry Pi Camera to the server, install a couple of dependencies:
1. _Gstreamer_ and _h264parse_:
```
sudo apt install -y gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-rtsp gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
```
2. _gst-rpicamsrc_, by following [instruction here](https://github.com/thaytan/gst-rpicamsrc)
Then edit `rtsp-simple-server.yml` and replace everything inside section `paths` with the following content:
```yml
paths:
cam:
runOnInit: gst-launch-1.0 rpicamsrc preview=false bitrate=2000000 keyframe-interval=50 ! video/x-h264,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=25/1 ! h264parse ! rtspclientsink location=rtsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
runOnInitRestart: yes
```
After starting the server, the camera is available on `rtsp://localhost:8554/cam`.
### OBS Studio
OBS Studio can publish to the server by using the RTMP protocol. In `Settings -> Stream` (or in the Auto-configuration Wizard), use the following parameters:
* Service: `Custom...`
* Server: `rtmp://localhost`
* Stream key: `mystream`
If credentials are in use, use the following parameters:
* Service: `Custom...`
* Server: `rtmp://localhost`
* Stream key: `mystream?user=myuser&pass=mypass`
