12.10. re-stream to RTMP

SRTMiniServer provides the capability to not only receive but also retransmit incoming SRT streams using the more common RTMP protocol.
This functionality is especially useful when your source is transmitting content with multiple audio tracks,
for example, a sporting event with commentary in different languages – English, German, Spanish, and so on.
Let's say you receive a football match broadcast from your media provider using the SRT protocol.
This stream contains three audio tracks: English, German, and Spanish. Your task is to re-broadcast this match to your YouTube channel or to another platform that works with RTMP.
 
SRTMiniServer, combined with the SDIOutAddon module, makes it easy to solve this problem. SDIOutAddon not only provides retransmission over the RTMP protocol but also allows you to select two audio channels  from those available in the SRT stream (this is a limitation of the RTMP protocol) for your broadcast.
In addition, you can overlay the video with a dynamic overlay – add a logo, ticker, or other information.
