Live streaming

Choose Agora, LiveKit, or raw WebRTC to publish a Nosmai-processed camera feed from Flutter, Android, or iOS.

SDK version Native 3.0.4 · Flutter 1.0.2 Updated Aug 22, 2026 Time 4 min

Nosmai processes the camera feed before the streaming provider publishes it. The provider continues to manage rooms, signalling, audio, participants, and network transport.

A camera feed passes through Nosmai Effects before a streaming provider publishes it

Choose an integration

IntegrationAvailable platformsUse it when
AgoraAndroid, iOS, FlutterYour application already uses Agora RTC Engine
LiveKitAndroid, iOS, FlutterYou use LiveKit Cloud or a self-hosted LiveKit server
Raw WebRTCAndroid, iOSYou own signalling, peer connections, or a custom WebRTC stack

Flutter has maintained Agora and LiveKit bridges. Native Android and iOS have verified examples for all three routes. React Native does not currently expose a high-rate zero-copy streaming bridge, and the Web SDK remains a developer preview, so neither is listed as a verified streaming target here.

Keep one camera owner

Nosmai owns camera capture and the processed local preview in the verified streaming examples. Do not also ask the streaming provider to open its camera. A second camera path can fail to start, publish unfiltered video, or reduce frame rate.

The correct path is:

  1. Start Nosmai capture and processing.
  2. Create a custom video source or track for the provider.
  3. Send Nosmai's processed output into that source.
  4. Publish the custom track.
  5. Stop frame production before releasing the provider session.

What stays with your application

  • Provider credentials, room tokens, and signalling
  • Microphone capture and audio publishing
  • Participant, reconnect, and background lifecycle
  • Encoder settings, bitrate, simulcast, and orientation policy
  • Customer-facing errors and connection state

Verify a stream

Apply a clearly visible effect and join from a second device. Confirm that the remote participant sees the filtered feed, not the raw camera, and test camera switch, stop, rejoin, portrait orientation, and app backgrounding.
