The goal of this work is to develop software for a video self-recording studio, with the goal of simplifying the recording process of video lectures for Massive Open Online Courses. It does so by providing a simple user interface, with capabilities such as audio-video feeds receiving and processing, realm-time mixing, rendering to screen and saving to file. A number of technologies have been reviewed during the work and eventually FFmpeg and RtspClientSharp have been chosen to become the core of media-processing stack, with ASP.NET, WPF and NAudio frameworks for user interface, mixing and outputting to screen, with overall application running on .NET Core runtime. Said application allows to create a self recording studio out of readily available retail hardware, such as commercial IP-cameras, encoders and Windows PC, providing necessary functions with minimal network delay and performance requirements. Future avenues of work are also discussed, such as full cross-platform support and lessening the amount of dependencies for a project.
