# Beginner ## Guide content

Finally, two FFmpeg processes are running, using the RTMP server and the in-memory filesystem.

1. Starting the Core container 2. Configure and restart the Core 3. Creating, verifying, updating, and deleting an FFmpeg process 4. Using placeholders for the in-memory file system and RTMP server 5. Analyze FFmpeg process errors ## 1. Start the Core ``` docker run --detach --name core --publish 8080:8080 datarhei/core:latest ```
## ## 2. Enable the RTMP server on the Core 1. Configuring the Core via the API 2. Restarting the Core via the API and loading the changed configuration 3. Calling the RTMP API ### 2.1 Changing the Configuration {% tabs %} {% tab title="Request" %} ```bash curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v3/config \ -H 'accept: application/json' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -X PUT \ -d '{ "version": 3, "rtmp": { "enable": true } }' ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="Response" %} ``` "OK" ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} #### API Documentation > Configuration {% content-ref url="../api/config" %} [config](https://docs.datarhei.com/core/api/config) {% endcontent-ref %} ### 2.2 Apply the change {% tabs %} {% tab title="Request" %} ```bash curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v3/config/reload \ -X GET ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="Response" %} ``` "OK" ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ### 2.3 Checking the RTMP server {% tabs %} {% tab title="Request" %} ```bash curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v3/rtmp \ -X GET ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="Response" %} ``` [] ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## ## 3. Main-process
