When the publisher or source of a stream is offline, the server can be configured to fill gaps in the stream with a video that is played on repeat until a publisher comes back online. This allows readers to stay connected regardless of the state of the stream. The offline video and any future online stream are concatenated without decoding or re-encoding packets, using the original codec.

Hooks
The server allows to specify commands that are executed when a certain event happens, allowing the propagation of events to external software.
runOnConnect
runOnConnect allows to run a command when a client connects to the server:
# Command to run when a client connects to the server.
# This is terminated with SIGINT when a client disconnects from the server.
# The following environment variables are available:
# * MTX_CONN_TYPE: connection type
# * MTX_CONN_ID: connection ID
# * RTSP_PORT: RTSP server port
runOnConnect: curl http://my-custom-server/webhook?conn_type=$MTX_CONN_TYPE&conn_id=$MTX_CONN_ID
# Restart the command if it exits.
runOnConnectRestart: no
runOnDisconnect
runOnDisconnect allows to run a command when a client disconnects from the server:
# Command to run when a client disconnects from the server.
# Environment variables are the same of runOnConnect.
runOnDisconnect: curl http://my-custom-server/webhook?conn_type=$MTX_CONN_TYPE&conn_id=$MTX_CONN_ID
runOnInit
runOnInit allows to run a command when a path is initialized. This can be used to publish a stream when the server is launched:
paths:
mypath:
# Command to run when this path is initialized.
# This can be used to publish a stream when the server is launched.
# The following environment variables are available:
# * MTX_PATH: path name
# * RTSP_PORT: RTSP server port
# * G1, G2, ...: regular expression groups, if path name is
# a regular expression.
runOnInit: ffmpeg -i my_file.mp4 -c copy -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:8554/mypath
# Restart the command if it exits.
runOnInitRestart: no
runOnDemand
runOnDemand allows to run a command when a path is requested by a reader. This can be used to publish a stream on demand:
pathDefaults:
# Command to run when this path is requested by a reader
# and no one is publishing to this path yet.
# This is terminated with SIGINT when there are no readers anymore.
# The following environment variables are available:
# * MTX_PATH: path name
# * MTX_QUERY: query parameters (passed by first reader)
# * RTSP_PORT: RTSP server port
# * G1, G2, ...: regular expression groups, if path name is
# a regular expression.
runOnDemand: ffmpeg -i my_file.mp4 -c copy -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:8554/mypath
# Restart the command if it exits.
runOnDemandRestart: no
runOnUnDemand
runOnUnDemand allows to run a command when there are no readers anymore:
pathDefaults:
# Command to run when there are no readers anymore.
# Environment variables are the same of runOnDemand.

runOnReady
runOnReady allows to run a command when a stream is ready to be read:
pathDefaults:
# Command to run when the stream is ready to be read, whenever it is
# published by a client or pulled from a server / camera.
# This is terminated with SIGINT when the stream is not ready anymore.
# The following environment variables are available:
# * MTX_PATH: path name
# * MTX_QUERY: query parameters (passed by publisher)
# * MTX_SOURCE_TYPE: source type
# * MTX_SOURCE_ID: source ID
# * RTSP_PORT: RTSP server port
# * G1, G2, ...: regular expression groups, if path name is
# a regular expression.
runOnReady: curl http://my-custom-server/webhook?path=$MTX_PATH&source_type=$MTX_SOURCE_TYPE&source_id=$MTX_SOURCE_ID
# Restart the command if it exits.
runOnReadyRestart: no
runOnNotReady
runOnNotReady allows to run a command when a stream is not available anymore:
pathDefaults:
# Command to run when the stream is not available anymore.
# Environment variables are the same of runOnReady.
runOnNotReady: curl http://my-custom-server/webhook?path=$MTX_PATH&source_type=$MTX_SOURCE_TYPE&source_id=$MTX_SOURCE_ID
runOnRead
runOnRead allows to run a command when a client starts reading:
pathDefaults:
# Command to run when a client starts reading.
# This is terminated with SIGINT when a client stops reading.

# * MTX_PATH: path name
# * MTX_QUERY: query parameters (passed by reader)
# * MTX_READER_TYPE: reader type
# * MTX_READER_ID: reader ID
# * RTSP_PORT: RTSP server port
# * G1, G2, ...: regular expression groups, if path name is
# a regular expression.
runOnRead: curl http://my-custom-server/webhook?path=$MTX_PATH&reader_type=$MTX_READER_TYPE&reader_id=$MTX_READER_ID
# Restart the command if it exits.
runOnReadRestart: no
