  • rtmp://ip/live/livesteamN
  • rtmp://ip/liveN/livestreamN
  • rtmp://ip/whatever/doesnotmatter
  • srt://ip:10080?streamid=#!::r=anyM/streamN,m=publish
  • http://ip:1985/rtc/v1/whip/?app=anyM&stream=streamN
  • http://ip:1985/rtc/v1/whep/?app=anyM&stream=streamN
  • http://ip:8080/anyM/streamN.flv
