Can Jitsi be used as a streaming server?
A small number of people in a call, 3-5, streaming to thousands. Live podcasts etc?
- neilalexander 7y agoThere is a document on how to live-stream to YouTube: https://jitsi.org/live-streaming-and-recording-a-jitsi-conference/ https://jitsi.org/live-streaming-and-recording-a-jitsi-confe...
- KaoruAoiShiho 7y agoOkay so jitsi can't be the "youtube" itself?
- tsukurimashou 7y agoyoutube and other steaming platforms use a lot of servers to handle the load, so no jitsi can't be youtube itself unless you have a beast of a connection and even then you'd cap your connection after a hundred users. CDNs like cloudflare does the same but for websites.
- KaoruAoiShiho 7y agoI already have a lot of servers. I was asking if jitsi is server side software that can handle the encoding / delivery to users. The answer is no. Jitsi is apparently completely unscalable.
- kitd 7y agoJitsi is apparently completely unscalable. Is this intended as a criticism? You wanted it to do a job it was never designed to do.
- KaoruAoiShiho 7y agoIt's not a criticism, just a clarification on what its job is.
