Are there any ethical live streaming services that respect your freedom?

I'm hijacking this thread. This is now a thread about live streaming software.

A somewhat recent trend in live stream solutions is using WebRTC to transport the video. This allows you to achieve sub 1 second delay from the streamer to the viewers. For example https://mixer.com/ boasts that they can achieve a 100 millisecond delay. Other sites with their own solutions are claiming 500 milliseconds. I'm not aware of any solutions that are free software, but I haven't searched to hard.

I am search of a solution / will get around to making one since I want to eventually add the ability to livestream to my site (it already supports uploading videos).

If you're streaming peer-to-peer using WebRTC or similar protocols wouldn't you need to have crazy fast upload to support a lot of viewers? 200 viewers means a 1mpbs stream requires 200mbps upload.

You should be able to Live stream using GNU MediaGoblin.

I was thinking more of a streaming platform where I can live stream jerking off while still having my freedoms respected.


 No.923623>>923624 >>923626 >>923632

Can't you setup livestreams with VLC?


 No.923624>>923626

>>923623

This is the best way, mainly due to its high configurability. Also it's doable from the command line.


 No.923626

I forgot that people actually used to do this.

You could multicast if everyone is on ipv6. I'm not aware of any software that supports it yet, but if/when this does become available, it enables a single upload stream to be multiplied within the network to serve unlimited viewers.

>>923568 (OP)

No, even ffserver is fucking dead.

>>923571

Fuck off and die shill. Latency is a bullshit metric in this instance anyway.


 No.923632

>>923623

Why VLC rather than youtube-dl or some other libre livestream program and then pipe it to MPV


 No.923667>>923672

>>923601

No. There's a digest server hosted by the live streaming service to handle that for you. You just stream to that one box and they stream it to everyone else.

>>923629

>Latency is a bullshit metric

Why don't you care about latency. Having a low latency I believe is more enjoyable since you can interact with your viewers in realtime.


 No.923672>>923694

>>923667

Yeah but most people are OK with Twitch's 20-30 second delay, so it's not really that important.


 No.923694>>923718

>>923603

That's just OBS. I'm talking about the server infrastructure.

>>923672

...and most people are OK with Windows.

That doesn't mean Windows is good.


 No.923707>>923717

Shouldn't it be possible to eliminate the need for this, using P2P? I remember tinkering with BitTorrent Live years ago, and it worked amazingly well.

Only downside I can think of is like >>923571 says if you want ultra-low latency.


 No.923717>>923719

Most normalfags want to do everything in their browser, and I don't know if Javascript supports networking, which would be necessary for this.

Faggot, I told you to check out GNU MediaGoblin.

>MediaGoblin is a free software media publishing platform that anyone can run. You can think of it as a decentralized alternative to Flickr, YouTube, SoundCloud, etc.

I only used it to watch content, not publish it, so I'm not 100% sure about how it would work if someone wanted to livestream.

You should check GNU ABYSS too.


 No.923719

>>923717

You can with WebRTC. As an example, that's how webtorrent works.

>>923718

You can not use mediagoblin for livestreaming purposes.


 No.923797

>>923718

I honestly could not check out mediagoblin, the site 500'd me. From what I remember though it was mostly just a webserver not a streaming server. FFserver was the only thing of that type I ever saw though the deprecation notes said something about mkv-something.

Shit like this is some turbo faggotry. A site hosted outside the US would be great so they didn't sperg out about muh doxxing and other normalnigger cancer.
