README

quick-switch

quick-switch demonstrates how to quickly switch between multiple videos using WebRTC. Similiar to how sites like TikTok quickly swipe between videos

The logic in the frontend is purposefully kept as simple as possible. Making it easy to use this on any platform that supports WebRTC.

In the main.go we have one video track, and we switch which video file is written to it.

Instructions

Download quick-switch

This example requires you to clone the repo since it is serving static HTML.

git clone https://github.com/pion/webrtc.git
cd webrtc/examples/quick-switch
Create your videos

This example expects AV1 inside a ivf container. I used the follow to encode for my demo.

ffmpeg -y \
  -i $YOUR_INPUT_VIDEO \
  -c:v libaom-av1 \
  -usage realtime \
  -lag-in-frames 0 \
  -crf 30 \
  -b:v 0 \
  -g 15 \
  -keyint_min 15 \
  -sc_threshold 0 \
  -pix_fmt yuv420p \
  -f ivf \
  output.ivf
Run quick-switch

Execute go run *.go

Open the Web UI

Open http://localhost:8080. This will automatically start a PeerConnection.

Press 'Next Video' and have fun! If you have ideas on how to make it better we would love to hear.
