400 Bad Request on pushing to twitch

[tmatth]

I've tried vp8, vp9 and h264 with no luck, see: https://www.reddit.com/r/WebRTC/comments/12nc5md/twitchtv_now_supports_webrtc_ingestion_via_whip/

By contrast, https://github.com/ggarber/whip-go does work with twitch.tv.

I don't know how I'm supposed to test this. I see a static endpoint, but for tokens it says Twitch Stream Key: does this mean I should have an account or something like that?

Yeah you need an account (which is free), here is what I tested (after adding some args in the dockerfile):

tmatth@bellini:/big-repos/simple-whip-client$ docker run -it --rm simple-whip-client

Created one but god the settings are so annoying. Just to create a stream I have to go through a 1000 hoops, pick a category I don't want to pick, can't make it private or unlisted who knows why. I have zero interest in giving this a go, to be honest. 400 means the server doesn't like something we send, and there's no way for me to know what just by guessing. Hopefully someone with Twitch knowledge will chime in and tell me what to fix.

Pinging @danjenkins as he may know who to nudge about that.

I enabled libsoup3 debugging, which shows this:

< HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

< failed to handle offer: failed to create broadcast session: h264 codec is missing in the SDP offer

Apparently it doesn't like the way H.264 is negotiated.

I pushed a commit to enable HTTP debugging, if you want to make more tests. Adding something like -H body to the command line will debug requests and responses on the console.

My guess is something like missing profile-level-id here:

a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1;sprop-parameter-sets=Z0LAFdoFB+wFqDAwNSgAAAMACAAAAwHkeLF1,aM48gA==

vs. the functional version in OBS

a=fmtp:96 profile-level-id=42e01f;packetization-mode=1;level-asymmetry-allowed=1

If I can confirm this is just a gstreamer issue hopefully I can fix it in the dockerfile and close.

[lminiero]

In my case the profile-level-id was there, just not one they'd like maybe

a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1;sprop-parameter-sets=Z0LAFdoFB+wFqDAwNSgAAAMACAAAAwHkeLF1,aM48gA==;profile-level-id=42c015;level-asymmetry-allowed=1

I haven't followed: has this been fixed by Twitch in the meanwhile?
