Apple does not natively support RTMP (Real Time Messaging Protocol) in their OSs (iOS, tvOS, macOS). HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) is natively supported (RFC8216).

There are a number of 3rd-party RTMP libraries (OSS, dual license and commercial/proprietary) that will work on the various Apple OSs.

A Few Examples:

  • SGPlayer (LGPL as it uses FFMPEG)
  • VideoKit (Dual license / GPL and Commercial)
  • VLC (GPL)
  • SmarterStreaming (Dual license)
  • etc...

There are many more libraries with all the core transcoding done in C/C++/ObjC (some have Swift framework wrappers) so you can consume them via a Xamarin.iOS binding library. Google/Bing is your friend...
