I read in the documentation that Mediasoup can receive incoming RTP traffic. However, I wasn’t able to find if it can receive RTMP/RTMPS traffic.

I will appreciate your help on that matter.

Best regards,  
Tal.

No,  
You would need to encode the RTMP/RTMPS stream to RTP via gstreamer/ffmpeg etc. and receive it via PlainTransport.
