StreamPack is a powerful, open-source Android live streaming SDK built entirely in Kotlin. Designed for high-performance and low-latency video broadcasting, StreamPack allows developers to seamlessly integrate RTMP, RTMPS, and SRT streaming protocols into their mobile applications.
By leveraging modern Android Camera2 and hardware-accelerated MediaCodec APIs, this library delivers a highly efficient and battery-friendly broadcasting experience. Its highly modular and extensible architecture makes it easy to plug in custom streaming protocols, custom audio/video sources, or build specialized applications like screen recorders and professional mobile broadcast tools.
