Searching some likely keywords using "dnf list" came up empty.
There are some Android apps that stream video from the phone to Youtube/Facebook but also have an option to stream video to a custom RTSP or RTMP URL.
The only thing I could find in dnf are a few packages that can stream video files to an RTSP or an RTMP client. I'm looking to do the opposite, set up a server that receives streamed video and saves it to files. Anyone knows of anything that does that?

rtmpdump ?
rtmpdump is a tool for dumping media content streamed over RTMP.

Oh, and VLC can capture an RTSP stream and convert/save to an mp4 file. Is that useful?
What about SRS:
https://github.com/ossrs/srs/wiki/v2_EN_Home
We are using it as a vimeo replacement using OBS studio to stream to it and transcode to FLV and MP4..

That seems to be what I'm looking for. Its packaging, though, appears to be quite ...interesting, with a handwritten configure script, rather than a stock autoconf or cmake script. The handwritten configure script is sprinkled with hardcoded callouts for Ubuntu and, apparently, CentOS, but it appears to be horribly broken on Fedora. This is what passes for a "configure" script in that package, a small sample:
rm -rf ${SRS_OBJS}/st-1.9 && cd ${SRS_OBJS} && unzip -q ../3rdparty/st-1.9.zip && cd st-1.9 && chmod +w * && patch -p0 < ../../3rdparty/patches/1.st.arm.patch && // [ a bunch of patch commands ] make ${_ST_MAKE} EXTRA_CFLAGS="${_ST_EXTRA_CFLAGS}" &&
It actually unzips a bundled package, applies some patches to it, and runs make for it. And the unzipped+patched Makefile is broken on Fedora.
Looking at what's in the source tree:
https://github.com/ossrs/srs/tree/master/trunk/3rdparty
That's what gets bundled inside this beast.
I'll bet it statically links everything.
Not sure exactly how exactly one goes about preparing a standard RPM out of something like that.
Oh, and the icing on the cake is that after I managed to figure out a standard patch to work around the configure script's compilation problem, the configure script then tried to run sudo:
http_parser.c:1952:5: note: here http_parser.c:1960:10: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit- fallthrough=] http_parser.c:1965:5: note: here http_parser.c: In function ‘http_parser_parse_url’: http_parser.c:2093:18: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit- fallthrough=] http_parser.c:2096:7: note: here ar rcs libhttp_parser.a http_parser.o [sudo] password for mrsam:
After examining what exactly it was trying to sudo, I determined that it was completely unnecessary; so I patched it out. That made the alleged configure step work. But the (real) make build bombed out because, apparently, it's broken with OpenSSL 1.1.0, and the configure script decided to compile against the system openssl, instead of unpacking and statically-building the bundled version. After a closer look, I found nothing in this package's build system that actually unpacks and builds the bundled openssl. The package appears to bundle an older version of OpenSSL, but the mechanism to unbundle it correctly appears to be missing. I gave up at this point.
Somehow, I doubt that this will be packaged in Fedora at any time in the foreseeable future.
That's really unfortunate, because this seems to be what I'm looking for.
Presuming, of course, it doesn't include a built-in crypto miner, or a spam server, or something of a similar nature. If you built this yourself, on Fedora, I'd be interested in seeing the steps you followed. If you just installed the CentOS tarball that this Chinese-developed software package apparently provides for your convenience, you might want to consider reformatting all your machines and reinstalling CentOS. Just saying...

It appears to be a streaming client that will connect to an existing RTSP stream server, and save the broadcasted stream.
As I said, I'm doing the opposite. I'm looking for a passive server that will accept a connection that's initiated by a streaming client, then receive, and save the stream.

Oh, OK. I obviously misunderstood.
