Did you guys find a self-hosted solution to this? I think we should really start self-hosting all aspects of free speech content, or at least be able to switch to self-hosting at a moment's notice.
- reid 6y agoFor live content, you can host your own RTMP ingest server and serve HLS video using this Docker container: https://github.com/awakening-church/awakening-nginx-rtmp/tree/falcon https://github.com/awakening-church/awakening-nginx-rtmp/tre... If you're a church or nonprofit, you can run it for free on Azure by applying for a sponsorship. I wrote automation to setup and teardown the system on Azure: https://github.com/awakening-church/live-infrastructure https://github.com/awakening-church/live-infrastructure Video playback is handled by Video.js with the HLS plugin. Our existing frontend web server reverse-proxies to the Docker instance serving HLS playlists and video chunks. I used this software from 2016 until about 6 months ago. We use Vimeo + Restream nowadays. If we ever needed to self-host again, it would be easy to switch back.
