I believe mediamtx can ingest the RTMP and present to a browser, via HLS or WebRTC.

Ask HN: IP cameras that don't require an app or internet
For my apartment, I run rtsp-simple-server[1] on my home server and use Raspberry Pis with generic USB webcams running ffmpeg to stream the audio/video to the RTSP server. Then I run camera.ui[2] separately for a nicer interface on top of all the cameras, HomeKit integration, etc.
The only downside hardware-wise is I don't get any indoor IR night vision with these, which some of the nicer "smart home" account-locked ones do.
It's honestly not too bad to set up if you run [1] and [2] in Docker. I've done disaster recovery scenarios of my home infra where I straight up disconnect the modem's uplink and everything works without any issues.

MediaMTX: Zero-dependency server for live video and audio streams
So you want the server to make an HTTP call to an endpoint to deliver when streams change their status?
https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx/issues/1462
Looks like there might be a work around.

Need a robust RTSP viewer for multi-user office
How low delay do you need? I'd recommend MediaMTX + VLC if you just want a live feed. motionEye could work too but it's very demanding on both the server and clients.
