# Notes
go2rtc tries to name formats, protocols and codecs the same way they are named in FFmpeg.
Some formats and protocols go2rtc supports exclusively. They have no equivalent in FFmpeg.
## Producers (input)
- The initiator of the connection can be go2rtc - **Source protocols**
- The initiator of the connection can be an external program - **Ingress protocols**
- Codecs can be incoming - **Recevers codecs**
- Codecs can be outgoing (two way audio) - **Senders codecs**

## Developers
File naming:
- `pkg/{format}/producer.go` - producer for this format (also if support backchannel)
- `pkg/{format}/consumer.go` - consumer for this format
- `pkg/{format}/backchanel.go` - producer with only backchannel func
