Streaming

What do you guys think of this software?

https://owncast.online/

Couldn't that also be included in UNA?

    • Hello @Pepper !

      The aesthetics of the project appear impressive. Would you consider becoming the primary sponsor for its development?

      • As I see you can already embed it into any page in UNA according to their instructions:

        https://owncast.online/docs/embed/

        If you need anything else then please describe it in more details.

        • Owncast is intended to embed your own stream. My question is whether owncast could be set up in such a way that every user can use their stream via the owncast software, identical to OvenMediaEngine.

          • As I see it's a different software, OvenMediaEngine is just a media server without any interface, while Owncast is complete solution with interface to stream and even chat. So you can just insert it as an embedded iframe to any page, then users will be able to stream.

            If you have some other idea how it should work, please describe it in more details.

            • Thanks Alex, I'll give that a try and if I have any customization ideas I'll get back to you.

              • Let me get a look at what you have implemented. I like this idea. But need to see it in action. Are you planning to create a page for this or actually insert into profile pages, etc...?

                • This seems like a really powerful program addition. Reading through its capabilities is insane. I'm thinking possibly having profile like live streams, a public chat room, and maybe creating a page simply like a channel based stream based on categories.

                  Of course I'd wanna integrate it with member accounts so when in use they are represented. Don't want the feel of an outside situation or afterthought. Reading what I've read, it seems achievable

                  • I haven't made a detailed plan yet. I discovered Owncast because a hoster offers it integrated in a cloud. After watching it, I thought this is something for the UNA community.
