There isn't much info here, but I am going to assume you would like to view a web page that shows your video.

If you have WebRTC enabled you can open the URL something like

https://my.server.com:8889/Path/To/Stream

"HTTP(S)" will depend on if you have set up certificates for encryption.
"my.server.com" of course is the FQDN for your server.
"8889" is the default port for WebRTC.
"/Path/To/Stream" is what you have set up in the config file or in your broadcasting software.

To view an RTMP stream, you would have to use a client like VLC or something using a similar URL like rtmp://my.server.com:1935/Path/To/Stream

By default, correct me if I am wrong, without a browser plugin, you cannot view RTMP streams directly in a browser.

this is not related to the question, that was related to embedding, and mostly wrong.

Hello, raw video tags do not support real-time video streams by themselves, they need to be initialized through JavaScript. Since this is too complex for most users, the README suggests two approaches:

• embedding the web page provided by the server through an iframe, as described here: https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx?tab=readme-ov-file#web-browsers-1
• building a custom page upon the source code of the web page provided by the server, and hosting it somewhere else, as described here: https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx?tab=readme-ov-file#web-browsers-1
