I'll try poking at it, but don't get your hopes up
I'll also see if those other two shows can work without trouble on dm or yt
I might just throw in the towel and go for the cytube google drives jutsu, honestly
I like having it work on my phone but not having to dick around with anything is good too.

OBS is really ez to download and use.
Download it here:
https://obsproject.com/
>OBS details:
>URL: rtmp://streamchan.org/live
>Stream key: channel1.flv
Basically when you open it you click File > Settings > Stream. Click Streamtype and switch to Custom Streaming Server.
URL option:
rtmp://streamchan.org/live
Stream Key: pick anything you want and end it in .flv
ex:
channel1.flv
8m.flv
8mecha.flv
shizuruslovehut.flv
etc.flv
After that close the settings window and go back to sources use Window Capture and pick the media window you want to capture. Under audio I'd suggest muting your microphone and if the sound is a little low click on the desktop advanced audio properties and raise the volume % accordingly.
At this point you can start the stream (via Start Streaming) and paste the urls for people to connect and watch.
Browser Stream link (remove the channel1 and replace with whatever the stream key was minus the flv):
https://streamchan.org#channel1
MPV/VLC stream link (same as above)
https://streamchan.org/hls/channel1.m3u8
There are a bunch of mirrors you can use as well depending on region to get a better connection - use them like the above links:
https://useast.streamchan.org
https://ca.streamchan.org
https://fr.streamchan.org
https://au.streamchan.org
There is some stuff with the Output tab after switching it to advanced instead of simple but it's mostly switching the rate control to CRF and adjusting the below CRF value for whatever you are streaming. Basically set CRF to 16 for 640 x 480 vids. 20 for 720 x 1280. 24 for 1080 x 1920 vids. You have to end the stream to adjust CRF so typically figure out what CRF you are gonna need for each video in advance and then stream things in accordance with that CRF level and pause the stream and restart when you need to mess with the CRF. In addition raise the Audio Bitrate to 192 for Track 1.
You don't need to do the above to stream but it will significantly improve the quality of the streams.

I see.
Yeah anything that's the traditional "video feed sent live" model really won't work for me to host. If you want to do something with this feel free to, but I can't reliably commit to being at a place at a time like that.
The cytube thing's working well enough for me though, I'm actually watching some current shows for a change so I'll keep doing this for my own sake at least.
I'm increasingly leaning towards the cytube googledrives userscript solution.

That's fine then. As long as people watch current shows and discuss them - you should make the threads at least for each current /m/ show tho.

Okay so regarding cleaning up old threads:
Somebody requested that I lock the old plamo threads with that one getting bumped. I'll probably work on that this weekend.
I'm also going to delete some stuff like the 8chan cup thread since that deadline passed and there's nothing really in it.
Any thoughts?

I tried, got an error message

I suspect it's something to do with the banners. I'll try poking at it some more later.
edit- I tried reloading the banners, still getting the error message. I'll try the flags next.

You know man, I think you're making the board a bit too Gundam-centric. New Gundam banners, all the new assets are Gundam-themed, our default name is now a reference to Gundam instead of being "Anonymous", it's a bit too much.

Hey BO, I think you should sit on some of these ideas for a little bit. Allow a consensus to form, because at the moment it looks like you're being extreme gung-ho about everything and making changes on a whim because one or two people said something.
Where are all the other banners by the way? I'm only seeing the one with the lasersword.

Sorry if I was being a bit incovenient. As for the banners, this board had none when I got it so I could only uploaded the one I made and one posted earlier in this thread.
I think many boards lost banners during the move, it could explain why some boards seem to have no banners now.
For now the only thing I will do is add banners and will only log in to moderate whenever some sperg tries to do shit or to keep the board.
Anons, start posting banners so that I could upload them.
