You either need to spawn multiple ffmpeg instances and record each stream separately or have some external processing pipeline that will combine streams together somehow and then save resulting stream into a single file. Mediasoup just forwards streams without any re-encoding applied, so it can’t and shouldn’t produce one output stream for multiple incoming streams.
