What is go2rtc?

go2rtc keeps adding vendor camera clouds, with Xiaomi the focus of the last three releases.

go2rtc turns almost any camera into a stream any client can use, and recent releases have worked through vendor protocols: VIGI, DoorBird and UniFi Protect via ONVIF in early 2025, then Tuya and Xiaomi in December 2025, a Xiaomi rework in January and more Xiaomi models in 1.9.15 on October 25. Between those came RTSP UDP transport, preload streams, a security release with path allowlists, and a Wyoming module for voice audio.

What is TrueConf?

TrueConf's October was spent patching a critical PHP flaw across every server line.

A critical PHP vulnerability in TrueConf Server's web service (PHP2Shell, all versions through 5.5.7) drove a security advisory, the 5.5.8 release and matching 5.4.11 and 5.3.11 updates. TrueConf Room gained better calendar-connector handling, and the company is marketing its on-premises stack at energy-industry events.

2.5

go2rtc keeps adding vendor camera clouds, with Xiaomi the focus of the last three releases.

◆ Current state

go2rtc turns almost any camera into a stream any client can use, and recent releases have worked through vendor protocols: VIGI, DoorBird and UniFi Protect via ONVIF in early 2025, then Tuya and Xiaomi in December 2025, a Xiaomi rework in January and more Xiaomi models in 1.9.15 on October 25. Between those came RTSP UDP transport, preload streams, a security release with path allowlists, and a Wyoming module for voice audio.

◆ Where it's heading

Releases come every one to three months, and each widens camera coverage or tightens the server's attack surface rather than changing the architecture. The Wyoming module is the one move beyond cameras.

◆ Prediction

The next release will likely add more vendor or firmware support; whether the Wyoming voice work expands is unclear from the feed.

5.0

TrueConf's October was spent patching a critical PHP flaw across every server line.

◆ Current state

A critical PHP vulnerability in TrueConf Server's web service (PHP2Shell, all versions through 5.5.7) drove a security advisory, the 5.5.8 release and matching 5.4.11 and 5.3.11 updates. TrueConf Room gained better calendar-connector handling, and the company is marketing its on-premises stack at energy-industry events.

◆ Where it's heading

TrueConf sells on-premises communications to regulated and industrial customers, and recent releases are mostly about keeping several supported server versions patched. Feature work, such as quick polls and chatbot buttons in 5.5.6, comes in smaller monthly steps.

◆ Prediction

Expect the November security update and a 5.5.9 server release, with feature work resuming in the 5.5 line.
