RootEncoder (rtmp-rtsp-stream-client-java) is a stream encoder to push video/audio to media servers using protocols RTMP, RTSP and SRT with all code written in Java/Kotlin

Note: The library was renamed from rtmp-rtsp-stream-client-java to RootEncoder after add SRT protocol because the name has no sense anymore

Use examples:

Rotation example

This is the recommend way to use the library. This example support screen rotation, stream orientation (vertical, horizontal) filters and change video/audio sources on fly: https://github.com/pedroSG94/RootEncoder/tree/master/app/src/main/java/com/pedro/streamer/rotation

Screen example

Example to stream using Screen as video source using a service to stream in background: https://github.com/pedroSG94/RootEncoder/tree/master/app/src/main/java/com/pedro/streamer/screen
