How to Send Your Feed via SRT (Secure Reliable Transport)

SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) allows you to deliver high-quality live video streams with low latency and reliable transmission, even over unstable networks.

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure that:

  • Your SRT server is up and reachable, and that it's network allows the connection
  • You have the connection details (Host, Port, Stream ID if required)

Step-by-Step Configuration

1. Access the Publish Section

  • Join or create your live production in LiveU Studio
  • Open the Publish panel (1) -> Add or edit publishing points (2).

2. Add a Publishing Point

  • Select SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) (3).
  • Click Add Publishing Point (4).

3. Configure Your SRT Output

Fill in the required fields:

  • Hostname
    • A domain name (e.g. example.com)
    • OR an IP address (e.g. 82.68.1.85)
  • Port
  • Stream ID (if applicable)
  • Passphrase (if applicable)
  • Latency: Set to 80ms by default

Do NOT include: Protocol prefixes (like "srt://") OR Port numbers inside the hostname field

4. Assign Audio Routing

  • Select one or multiple audio output buses (P1 to P4) -> More info about audio mixing in the dedicated tutorial.

5. Start Streaming

  • Click Start Publishing & Record

Validation

Once streaming is started:

  • Verify that your feed is correctly received on your SRT server

Troubleshooting

If the stream is not working:

  • Check your network configuration and firewall rules
  • Double-check all fields (especially Hostname formatting)
  • Increase the latency & use an average of 5Mbit/s in output
