Ask HN: How to broadcast your desktop on linux?
Workflow needed:
1. Drag a bounding box
2. Click start recording
3. Take the URL, let's say my IP address + /stream_key=blabla
4. Send the URL to a friend who just needs a browser with streaming support, and it plays like Youtube video plays without needing anything else!
On Windows, I use Join.me to achieve roughly this. But on Linux?
I don't need Chrome Remote Desktop which needs installing an extension.
I think it can also be coupled with Webtorrent and can be used to serve large audience without needing very high upload speed!?!
- billconan 9y agowhy don't you use twitch or youtube live streaming, and a streaming tool like this https://obsproject.com https://obsproject.com not sure about twitch, I think youtube streaming can be private?
- xstartup 9y agoBut why we need youtube or twitch? I don't want them to record my private activities which I might be willing to share with some other person.
