VLC Media Player

VLC media player supports SRT as an input (starting from VLC version 3). SRT access module source code: link.

To open an SRT stream go to the menu "Media" -> "Open Network Stream". Specfy the source URI in the format: srt://ip:port .

Note that VLC does not parse URI query options, so the parameters passed in a query are ignored. For example, srt://ip:port?passphrase=123456789!@ is identical to a simple srt:ip:port.

SRT options can be specified on the corresponding property page. Go to the menu "Tools" -> "Preferences". In the bottom-left corner select "Show Settings: All".

Select "SRT" in the tree node of "Input Codecs" -> "Access modules".
