What Shed is

Shed, also called Muxshed, is a self-hosted live production studio for bringing video sources together and sending a finished program to multiple destinations. It accepts RTMP, SRT, and WebRTC inputs, with a browser-based switcher for scenes, layered compositions, cuts, and frame-accurate stinger transitions. Remote guests can join through a browser invite link over WebRTC without installing an app or creating an account. The compositor supports image overlays and lower thirds. Streams can go to YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Facebook, and custom RTMP or RTMPS endpoints at the same time. Shed can schedule premieres, play video playlists consecutively, or loop a 24/7 channel. Each instance can also provide an unlisted HLS watch page with custom branding and an optional viewer password. It is open source under AGPL-3.0 and free to self-host at no cost, with unlimited destinations and no per-channel fees. It runs with ffmpeg on Docker, Podman, Unraid, Proxmox, or Linux; source builds require Rust 1.88+ and Node.js 20+.
