Maximum number of SRT client connections?

[JonnyTech]

Question

I am sending a single SRT stream with ffmpeg to MediaMTX to republish as SRT.

Then need to connect multiple clients (VLC, ffplay, OBS, etc) to view the stream.

Is there a maximum number of simultaneous connections/clients that MediaMTX supports?

Everything is on a fixed local network with no other traffic. Looking to connect 50 in total.

Since SRT is a UDP protocol, but ffmpeg only supports one connection, can MediaMTX handle it?

Hello, there is no maximum number of connections (unless you set maxReaders) and the bottleneck is almost always the LAN bandwidth. CPU and RAM consumption are minimal unless you are re-encoding the stream.

Regarding UDP, the server uses a single port for handling all SRT clients, there isn't any limit on that too.
