I’m working on a webrtc app for handling multiple audio streams. Works ok in a browser but I want to move part of it to a node app.
I’m using mediasoup as the server for this, and a sample they have to record to a file using ffmpeg or gstreamer as the starting point.
The key file in the sample is here https://github.com/Kurento/mediasoup-demos/blob/master/mediasoup-recording/server.js
In this file it saves an audio stream (and optionally video) to a file using ffmpeg.
I simply want to simply send the sound to an audio output device instead. I’m sure it’s really simple but ffmpeg seems like a huge subject in itself and I’ve already spent a lot of time trying to find out how to do this.
The command used to save to a file is (from the source code comments)
* ffmpeg
* -nostdin
* -protocol_whitelist file,rtp,udp
* -fflags +genpts
* -i recording/input-vp8.sdp
* -map 0:a:0 -c:a copy -map 0:v:0 -c:v copy
* -f webm -flags +global_header
* -y recording/output-ffmpeg-vp8.webm
If anyone could advise how to change this to send to a specific audio device, I’d be really grateful. This is on a mac, and I have multiple sound devices so I also need to be able to find a list of them so I can send specific streams to specific devices. Something else I’ve struggled to do.
Many thanks in advance.
