sorry to my friends for cutting ahead in the queue but i have important news to share while i am still awake: the first ever cohost live stream!

stream over. thanks for watching! i cant wait to waste my spare time on improving this setup

live stream using mjpg

status updates:

  • im in bed and letting this run on auto pilot for a bit longer. my pc is at 100°C, my room is at 30°C, the current setup is a janky mess (see comments).
  • apparently 5 seconds per frame isnt slow enough anymore. my pc is still "alive" but even task manager has stopped responding.
  • stream shut down 15 minutes past midnight local (central european summer) time

i wish it was 😭 yes this is mjpg, not via ffmpeg but rather via a weird little mjpg streaming utility i found online - hence the weird aspect ratio and jank reverse proxy, as a proof of concept. my plan going forward (if i find the time for it) is to have my PC stream to my server, which then sends the same mjpg data to everyone at once, which should be better than this 😅
