Server Creation

Overview

A Server (Python) / ovstream_server_t* (C) is the central object representing one streaming endpoint. You create it for a specific transport (WEBRTC, RTSP, NATIVE, SHM, CUDASHM), configure it, start it, stream frames into it, and finally stop + destroy it.

Multiple servers can coexist in one process — typical pattern is one WebRTC server for interactive clients plus one RTSP server for industry-standard tools, fed from the same CUDA buffer.
