⁠MistServer

MistServer is a streaming media server that works well in any streaming environment even on a Raspberry Pi! It bridges the gap between dedicated media servers and web servers, performing the best of both worlds when it comes to media streaming delivery.

The opensource version works best with HLS live streaming (gaming) with programs such as Open Broadcaster Software (OBS), FFsplit or Xsplit! If you want more options such as VOD, buy a pro-license.

What makes this docker build better as the official one from DDTECH/MistServer?
It's more secure and because on docker stop it will gracefully shutdown your processes. It prevents data corruption and all config-files will be saved before shutting down.
