Hi Reddit!
I’ve recently been building Octoplex - a self-hosted live video restreamer for Docker.
Octoplex runs on your Docker host, and listens for incoming RTMP video streams - from OBS, FFmpeg or any other broadcasting client.
It provides both a web interface and interactive TUI that allow you to restream the incoming stream to multiple destinations: think PeerTube, Owncast or closed platforms like YouTube or Twitch. Basically anywhere that accepts RTMP ingest. It integrates directly with Docker and launches FFmpeg and MediaMTX containers to handle the streams.
Quick list of features:
- RTMP and RTMPS ingest
- Zero config TLS certs for RTMPS ingest and API
- Unlimited destinations
- Add/remove/start/stop destinations while live
- Web and interactive terminal UI
- Easy to deploy with Docker image or a single binary
Built with Go and TypeScript/Vite/Bootstrap.
The project is approaching a beta release and needs your feedback, suggestions and bug reports. Code contributions also welcome!
