Port > Streaming Ports

Streaming services and applications use various ports for the delivery of audio and video content over the internet. Here are some commonly used streaming ports and their associated streaming services:

  1. Port 80: HTTP – While not exclusively for streaming, port 80 is often used for streaming video and audio content over the web, particularly through web browsers.
  2. Port 1935: RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) – Adobe Flash Media Server uses port 1935 for streaming multimedia content, though it is becoming less common with the decline of Flash.
  3. Port 554: RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) – RTSP is used for controlling the delivery of streaming media, and it often uses port 554 for communication.
  4. Port 1755: RTSP Alternate – An alternative port for RTSP-based streaming media.
  5. Port 1935: RTMP Alternate – Some RTMP streams may use an alternative port if the default port is unavailable.
  6. Port 8080: HTTP Alternate – Port 8080 is sometimes used for streaming HTTP-based content.
  7. Port 80/443: HTTP/HTTPS – Many streaming services use standard web ports (HTTP on port 80 or HTTPS on port 443) for content delivery.
  8. Port 5004/5005: RTP (Real-Time Protocol) – RTP and RTCP (Real-Time Control Protocol) often use these ports for media streaming.
  9. Port 5544: Shoutcast – Shoutcast, a popular platform for streaming audio content, may use port 5544.
  10. Port 1935: RTMP Secure – An encrypted version of RTMP may use port 1935 for secure streaming.
  11. Port 1755: RTSP Secure – A secure variant of RTSP may use port 1755 for encrypted media streaming.
  12. Port 80: HTTP Live Streaming – HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), developed by Apple, often uses port 80 for delivery of adaptive streaming content.
  13. Port 1935: RTMPS (RTMP Secure) – Secure RTMP streaming can use port 1935 for encrypted content.
  14. Port 8080: HTTP Alternate – Port 8080 is sometimes used for streaming HTTP-based content.
  15. Port 10000: WebRTC – Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) uses port 10000 for real-time audio and video communication in web browsers.

Please note that the choice of port can vary based on the streaming service, protocol, and configuration. Streaming services often use a combination of these ports to ensure the smooth and secure delivery of audio and video content over the internet.
