go2rtc is a zero-dependency camera streaming application and media server written in Go that supports dozens of streaming formats and protocols (WebRTC, RTSP, RTMP, HLS, MJPEG, MP4) with zero-delay streaming. It can run standalone, in Docker, or as a Home Assistant add-on/integration, and offers two-way audio, on-the-fly FFmpeg transcoding, and stream publishing to services like YouTube and Telegram.

Use cases

  • view ip camera streams in a browser with low latency
  • convert rtsp camera streams to webrtc
  • restream a webcam to youtube or telegram
  • add two-way audio to home assistant cameras
  • self-host a media server for security cameras
  • stream wyze or tapo cameras into home assistant
  • mix audio and video tracks from multiple sources into one stream

When to choose

  • you need low-latency browser viewing of RTSP/IP cameras
  • you use Home Assistant and want native camera integration
  • you need protocol conversion between RTSP, WebRTC, HLS, RTMP, and MJPEG
  • you want a single small binary with no dependencies
  • you need two-way audio with cameras

When to avoid

  • you need heavy always-on transcoding pipelines rather than on-the-fly codec negotiation
  • you need a full NVR with recording schedules and motion detection
  • you need a GUI-first video editor or player
  • you need VOD/OTT platform features like DRM or adaptive bitrate ladders
