Mix LiveKit to RTMP

Send a LiveKit room to YouTube, Twitch, or any RTMP endpoint. RTC rooms need a video_mixer and audio_mixer before rtmp_push — that is a mix, not a relay. For pull sources without nodes, see Wiring — relay.

1. Create tokens

Generate a subscribe token for the source room and ensure your RTMP URL is ready. See LiveKit token docs.

2. Submit the job

curl -X POST "https://api.avflow.dev/v1/jobs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${AVFLOW_API_KEY}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @public/examples/10-livekit-mix.json

Or inline:

{
  "name": "livekit-mix",
  "sources": [{
    "name": "room_src",
    "type": "livekit",
    "config": {
      "serverUrl": "wss://your-project.livekit.cloud",
      "token": "<subscribe-token>"
    }
  }],
  "nodes": [{
    "name": "mix_video",
    "type": "video_mixer",
    "inputs": ["room_src"],
    "config": {
      "canvas": { "width": 1280, "height": 720 },
      "layout": { "mode": "grid", "grid": { "maxColumns": 3 } }
    }
  }, {
    "name": "mix_audio",
    "type": "audio_mixer",
    "inputs": ["room_src"]
  }],
  "sinks": [{
    "name": "rtmp_out",
    "type": "rtmp_push",
    "inputs": ["mix_video", "mix_audio"],
    "config": {
      "urls": ["rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/xxxx"]
    }
  }]
}

3. Monitor

curl "https://api.avflow.dev/v1/jobs/livekit-mix" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${AVFLOW_API_KEY}"

Wait for status: "running". Check CDN ingest on your platform.

4. Stop

curl -X DELETE "https://api.avflow.dev/v1/jobs/livekit-mix" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${AVFLOW_API_KEY}"
