brew install srt v1.5.5 MPL-2.0

Secure Reliable Transport library for low-latency video streaming over unpredictable networks.

Why you might care

SRT is a protocol and C library designed for reliable, low-latency transmission of video and media over lossy internet connections. Use this if you're building broadcast, streaming, or live-media applications that need better performance than standard UDP or TCP. It's widely adopted by streaming platforms and provides encryption, recovery algorithms, and adaptive bitrate handling.
