Alessandro RosandGitHub b5b63d02fc support reading and publishing with Media-over-QUIC (#5815)
Media-over-QUIC is a streaming protocol built upon cutting edge
protocols (QUIC, HTTP3) and browser APIs (WebTransport, WebCodecs).
It's slightly faster than WebRTC, has an advanced data recovery
mechanism (placed at the frame level and not at the packet level), it
supports additional codecs (FLAC) and is less complicated to route.

Media-over-QUIC is a streaming protocol built upon cutting edge protocols (QUIC, HTTP3) and browser APIs (WebTransport, WebCodecs) that can be used to publish and read live media streams. It's slightly faster than WebRTC, has an advanced data recovery mechanism, it supports additional codecs (FLAC and future ones) and is less complicated to route.

There are some limitations and requirements that are listed in Publish with Media-over-QUIC clients.

You can read a stream with Media-over-QUIC and a web browser by visiting:

https://localhost:8892/mystream/publish

The only clients that can currently read with Media-over-QUIC are Web browsers.
