Upgrading Known Issues

• If you are upgrading your server/webapp from a version older than 11.0.0, please see these details on WHIP/WHEP.
• With server >= 8.0.0, for localhost testing, it may be necessary to set force.local.ip= to your machine’s IP address in conf/webrtc-plugin.properties

Publishing and Subscribing Known Issues

• The cluster server becomes a listener upon every shared object. That should explain why listener count always starts with 2
• Re-publishing/ re-subscribe takes 2-3 seconds for starting the stream with the same stream name.
• Notifications for Publisher-Subscriber connect/disconnect for RTMP connections is throwing some unexpected messages
• While RTMP connections are removed from the count of “connected clients”, they are not removed from the count of “stream subscribers”
• Region-specific targeting via autoscale requires the &strict=true to be enforced.

Post Processor Known Issues

• For server version >= 9.0.0, if you need the Orientation post-processor feature, contact us at info@red5pro.com to help get you a compatible FFmpeg library.
• If using the Orientation Post Processor, note that the Android SDK recordings take approximately 3 times the duration of the file to convert to MP4; modify the cloudstorage-plugin.properties file, setting the max.transcode.minutes= value to allow for this timing
• IMPORTANT: Because of different libcrypto library versions supported between CentOS and Ubuntu, if you are using CentOS or Ubuntu >=22.04 it is necessary to modify {red5pro}/conf/webrtc-plugin.properties, and change openssl.enabled=true to openssl.enabled=false

WebRTC Known Issues

• Shared Object(Websocket Only) testbed example : There is no websocket or shared object testing in conjunction with WHIP/WHEP connections though same should work with WS (uncheck WHIP/WHEP on the settings page)
• Subscribe AMF Metadata : Current implementation trims any extra spacing and just takes a single space when entered
• Shared objects testbed example does not support the special characters " and \

Mixer Known Issues
