mobius-rtsp
A GStreamer-based RTSP server for endless video streaming.
Files in a folder become streams.
Drop video files into data/videos. On startup the server reads their names and publishes each one as an RTSP stream — the filename, without its extension, is the mount point.
In infinite mode each video decodes in its own producer pipeline and is forwarded into the RTSP pipeline, so a client that connects an hour later still finds a live stream rather than a finished file.
- Endless by construction Playback loops inside the pipeline, so the stream has no end for a consumer to hit.
- One pipeline per video Each source decodes independently and feeds the server, which keeps one bad file from taking the rest down.

Where the stream shows up.
A file on disk maps straight to a mount point, so the URL is predictable.
