Media streaming library.

LEADTOOLS Multimedia SDK is one of the good media streaming libraries that provides the ability to stream or re-stream media data from files or memory using different types of protocols, such as UDP, RTP, TCP, RTSP and others.
I used LEADTOOLS .NET classes with .NET WinForms and WPF applications, but I did not try it before with .NET core, so I am not sure if it is going to work as expected with .NET core.

About the streaming part, the following code shows how you can stream a local video file into UDP stream using .NET convert control from LEADTOOLS:

//Declare the convert control
ConvertCtrl Converter = new ConvertCtrl(true);
Converter.SourceFile = " Add the local path of the source file here";
Converter.TargetFormat = TargetFormatType.MPEG2Transport;
Converter.TargetFile = " Add the target UDP URL here";
Converter.VideoCompressors.H264.Selected = true;
Converter.AudioCompressors.AAC.Selected = true;
//Start the conversion process
Converter.StartConvert();

Note that you can stop the conversion (streaming) process anytime using the Converter.StopConvert() method. This is more information about the convert control:
