ZLMediaKit

ZLMediaKit is a high-performance C++11 media server and streaming SDK for real-time audio and video applications. It supports a wide range of protocols, including RTSP, RTMP, HLS, HTTP-FLV, WebSocket-FLV, GB28181, HTTP-TS, HTTP-fMP4, MP4, and WebRTC. The project is designed for protocol conversion, live streaming, low-latency playback, recording, forwarding, and large-scale client access. Its asynchronous, multithreaded network model makes it suitable for commercial streaming deployments with many concurrent connections. ZLMediaKit can be deployed directly as a complete media server or embedded through its standard C API as an SDK for other languages and systems. It also provides REST APIs and webhooks so businesses can integrate authentication, event handling, and custom streaming logic.
