## Streaming with Icecast
## Video streaming with Icecast
Video streaming is hard. It seems to be more about how many data centers you
have hardware in and what deals you've struck with ISPs for larger bandwidth.
We don't have any of that.
The aim is to stream visual media between small numbers of friends on regular
household laptops and old computers. We aim to explore what are the limits for
the homebrew setup.
### The Architecture
Most people seem to recommend [Icecast](https://icecast.org/) and
[OBS](https://obsproject.com/). It also seems to be possible to use plain old
[ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/).
### Requirements
What are the CPU requirements? What are the bandwidth requirements? What kind
of RAM do we need? What are the other things we need to take into account and
how can we reason about the requirements for video streaming between friends?
We hope to document all this as we find out.
### Setting up Icecast
TODO.
### Tweaking Icecast
- [Configuring Icecast](https://epir.at/2018/03/08/obs-icecast-streaming/)
### Converting Film File Formats
Trying the following so far.
```
$ ffmpeg -i myfilm.format myfilm.otherformat
```
It also seems to be possible to use [HandBrake](https://handbrake.fr/).
### Streaming to Icecast
TODO.
