Hello, I'm having some issues with CF Live:

I am ingesting video via WebRTC WHIP and outputting to Twitch via RTMPS. I can clearly see the preview in CF Live, however, Twitch shows my stream as OFFLINE.

However, if I instead stream RTMP to CF Live and output to Twitch via RTMPS, the stream appears perfectly fine in Twitch.

Is this a known issue? Is it not possible to go from WebRTC WHIP ingest => RTMPS output?

WHIP and WHEP must be used together — we do not yet support streaming using RTMP/SRT and playing using WHEP, or streaming using WHIP and playing using HLS or DASH. (coming soon)

Cloudflare Docs

WebRTC

Sub-second latency live streaming (using WHIP) and playback (using WHEP) to unlimited concurrent viewers.

Ah I see. Is there a rough ETA when this is planned to be supported?
