How to stream the conference

Open gilligan opened this issue 9 years ago • 7 comments

From the top of my head I would say there are two obvious choices for hosting this:

  1. google hangout
  2. twitch

Personally I have used neither for such a purpose. Does anyone have experience with this ?

Hangouts could work for a panel, I think. I doNT know that it's great for screencasting

javascriptair.com is hosted on hangouts. So I think it would also work for ramdaconf.

@stoeffel good thought brining up javascriptair - I should perhaps contact the organisers for some know-how/experience exchange.

Jop, I think we could benefit from @kentcdodds experience with hosting jsair on hangouts.

Hey friends. Hangouts On Air works pretty well for what JavaScript Air is doing, but you might also consider just going straight up with YouTube Streaming. I have yet to try it, but I've been considering taking a look at it. I'm not sure whether it allows multiple cameras though... Should be fine for you I think.

Hey @kentcdodds thanks for your input! I will have a look at youtube streaming ;)

Just looked at the README. You might reach out to @cmaxw and ask him for advice about his allremoteconfs.com
