LainTV: Lainchan's Live Stream

I am officially announcing laintv.com. We are users of lainchan who have teamed up to do live streams for everyone here. The content we will stream will be anime, movies, games, and western TV series. =========================================================================================================== We do have a schedule of when people will be doing dedicated streams: Monday: (currently no one) Tuesday: tsundoll 7pm-10pm EST (11pm-2am UTC) Wednesday: (currently no one) Thursday: apotheosis 10am-2pm EST (2pm-6pm UTC) || R0gU3 8pm-11pm (12am-3am UTC) Friday: 9pm-12am (1am-2am UTC) Saturday: Skele 6pm-10pm (10pm-2am UTC) Sunday: (currently no one) There will also be random streams throughout the day mainly by: iLikeBiscuits. =========================================================================================================== I know there are some questions and concerns that you all might have so I will do my best to answer a few of them: >Why are you using flash, its soykaf just use HTML5! We currently use HLS for our streaming protocol. Which while there are HTML5 web players that support HLS they are a bitch to work with, and you would need to enable javascript for it to work. Even still comes down to each individual's browser settings (no seriously, this is a major problem). Fear not though you can manually connect to the stream with any of your favorite media players that supports RTMP (rtmp://laintv.com/live/stream). >Stop advertising! I have been in contact with kalyx throughout the development of this project to make sure we wouldn't go over any boundaries. However I promise we will not spam the entire imageboard, and keep it in one thread. >Why is this on a separate site and not on lainchan? Well for several reasons, but namely to keep the load of doing so many streams off of lainchan and its servers. If you have any more questions please post them and I will do my best to answer them. We are also still looking for people who want to do streams, but we really need people who can stream on the days that do not have anything!

>>17242 What will each be streaming?

>>17247 Still working out that, but tsundoll is streaming Macross: Do You Remember Love? right now.

>>17242 Oh man, there're going to be game streams? That's exciting. Any ideas what games might be played? If I get the internet soon (and get good enough) I might like to do a speedrun or two.

>>17249 I plan on playing Deus Ex: Human Revolution, this friday.

>>17249 Someone should stream NeoTokyo

Small update: I have selected a couple of good movies for us to watch on Halloween.

Apotheosis here, I'm planning on streaming the 3 Alien movies tomorrow (director's/assembly cut of each), but it's a 7 hour period. I only have 4 hours on the schedule, but R0gU3 isn't streaming for a while after I'm done, so I suppose it's fine for me to go over my zone (the stream would be from 10am - 5pm (EST)) Problem is, I have a class from 2pm - 3pm, which would line up perfectly with the last 30 minutes of Aliens and the first 30 of Alien 3. Not very ideal from my point of view (and especially if something goes wrong with starting the next movie) To solve this I can delay my start by an hour, but that would end me at 6pm Thoughts?

I've haven't been here in a while but, stuff like this get my hype back! Thanks in advance.

>>17279 Shouldn't be a problem so long as you don't cut into R0Ug3's time slot. >>17280 Thanks, I was hope this will bring our community a just little bit closer.

>>17242 I might be interested in streaming on any open days? Whats the tech, what do I need to setup... is there a guide for setting up a stream? Thinking alternative euro films/cinima. From the strange to the odd... not exactly cyber punk but still interesting and will mix it up a bit. What do?

>>17284 You'll probably want to use OBS, unless you're good with the shell, in which case you can use ffmpeg. https://obsproject.com

I am an planning on streaming some Single Player game, somethings spooky like Metro or DeadSpace. Though other games like the Penumbra series and the Batman games would be available too

I am going to be doing a special Halloween stream this Saturday night starting around 9pm EST (1am UTC). I have 3 movies selected just for this special occasion, and I hope you all will like them.

Don't forget lainons that we will have TWO separate streams tonight. First starts at it's normal time indicated above, but it will stop around 9pm EST. Where I will take over to do a super special Halloween stream.

>>17242 If you guys are interested in games I have over 300 shareware games from the 90s I've accumulated with almost no record online. I was originally going to do a web series documenting these but if it would help at all I could supply them to this cause. Increpare is also a good thing to go through because of how odd it is while maintaining the techno-surrealism that's always been a key part of cyberpunk as a whole.

>>17481 Damn, that would be nice. I would love to play some old 90s shareware games. Could you upload them somewhere and give us a link, or contact me over either on IRC or email.

>>17481 I'd love that too. Shoot me an email or something

Is the stream working for everyone else? I cant figure this out.

>>17501 It's on and off at different times. Right now it's started but when you posted it wasn't When it is on, the website requires flash. But because it's not 2006, you can: run the rtmp in the OP through vlc, mpv, etc if that doesn't work, install livestreamer and run that with the rtmp and the quality (either best or worst) through as arguments

Thanks got it up. couldn't tell if it wasnt working or if no one was streaming.

>>17242 Sounds awesome but I'm having trouble getting the rtmp stream to work I've put in rtmp://107.191.102.75/live/stream into both VLC and mpv and both just give me errors

>>17242 Holy shit, you're not dead. Sidenote is there a backup copy of the old cybwiki? Before it fell victim to villainous spammers.

>>17568 Make sure you go to Media>Open Network Stream, and paste the RTMP link in there. >>17605 I believe I do have a copy, but it is probably filled with spam.

>>17650 I'd love to have a copy if you get a chance. People on /cyb/ on 8chan were trying to do something very similar and I hate seeing people trying to reinvent the wheel plus I really enjoyed working on the wiki.

>>17694 I'll see if I can find it, but no guarantees.

>>17697 Thanks

It's going to rain all day tomorrow, and I will probably go over for my stream so, ultra-comfy stream tomorrow What should I play? https://strawpoll.me/5980716

>>17780 And "already started" means I'm barely through the tutorial

wow all my lainchan tabs just started playing music it's fabulous *_*

>>17295 Alien Isolation. Nuff said.

>>17242 I want to stream videos I have saved. Maybe games. I've got OBS and I need to connect to lainchan's server. What do I input for this bit? I just put in lainchan.tv and it says remote host closed connection.,

I would be interested in streaming. Any way to contact you guys?

>>18105 >>17853 Talk to I_can_FLY on irc

>>17242 Why don't you register "lain.tv"? It's only ~$2 a month and looks a lot better than "laintv.com". (At least to me.)

>>18288 I was waiting for it to expire, but just I bought it. Also I am going to be out of town starting Tuesday, so if you are interested in streaming please wait until next week.
