Reminder FFMPEG can execute simple edits all on it's own & has built-in automation

Does anyone stream directly from ffmpeg? I have a 24/7 music stream with a static background image and playlist, running headless off a raspberry pi, and I'd love to see what other people have come up with to expand the idea

I did a few times just to test it out on peertube, i wrote a script to broadcast all videos in a given folder in random order. I would like to eventually have something going 24/7 but i havent gotten to setting that up yet

Why don't they change the licence of FFMpeg to GPL so that everything uses it is open source? It'd be a win-win.

Changing licence is harder then you would think.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Yup. Just imagine them changing it the other way on a whim.

Funny story. You can stream to all platforms with RTMP but only piece of software that was able to play rtmp in browser (flashplayer) is dead.
