What is streamtop?

streamtop is an open-source terminal user interface (TUI) and command-line tool built for passive, real-time diagnostics of HLS, MPEG-DASH, and IPTV streams.

Designed for video streaming and broadcast engineering workflows, it inspects live manifests, tracks segment download timing, and continuously verifies video health directly from the command line without synthetic player emulation.

Key capabilities:

  • Real-time stream telemetry: Tracks manifest jitter, segment latency, bitrates, and transport health.
  • Industry standard compliance: Monitors TR 101 290 broadcast metrics and SCTE-35 digital cue markers.
  • Dual operation modes: Interactive Ratatui interface for live inspection alongside headless execution modes.
  • Production export targets: Prometheus metrics endpoint, OpenTelemetry support, and structured JSON or HAR outputs.
