Unable view the published stream from a browser

Question

I am publishing a video stream using the following command
ffmpeg -re -stream_loop -1 -i sample_960x400_ocean_with_audio.ts -c copy -f rtsp rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream

The server log confirms it

2024/08/01 01:16:08 INF [RTSP] [conn 127.0.0.1:35558] opened
2024/08/01 01:16:08 INF [RTSP] [session a49af6e5] created by 127.0.0.1:35558
2024/08/01 01:16:08 INF [RTSP] [session a49af6e5] is publishing to path 'mystream', 2 tracks (MPEG-1/2 Video, MPEG-1/2 Audio)

But when I try to access the stream from a browser I get an error, and the server log shows

What am I doing wrong. I am using the default yml that is present on the github and didn't make any changes to it.

In order to read a stream with a browser, you have to reach the WebRTC server (port 8889), not the RTSP server (port 8554):

http://localhost:8889/mystream
