What is MistServer?

MistServer is a lightweight streaming media server designed for flexibility, reliability, and easy integration. Originally built as a media repackager, it has evolved into a modular streaming toolkit that handles a wide range of formats and protocols with minimal overhead.

MistServer is highly resource-efficient and introduces minimal latency. It supports live and on-demand streaming for almost any transport protocol or media format used.

There is also an included web player, which provides a unified, browser-based streaming experience by seamlessly wrapping multiple protocol-specific players, ensuring compatibility across all streaming formats with minimal hassle.

For integration MistServer provides a fully documented API and a trigger system for automating workflows, making it easy to adapt to different use cases.

From building a CDN to powering embedded video streaming on SoCs, MistServer offers a robust and flexible foundation for modern media applications.
