<2022-03-07T19:49:29.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Would it be possible to run obs on mobile using Linux? 
<2022-03-07T20:16:03.000Z> robcolbert: You'd be better-served using a laptop. A phone or tablet would be woefully under-powered for running a full copy of OBS - and I don't think you'll find it compiled for ARM.
<2022-03-07T20:16:32.000Z> robcolbert: On mobile, I would recommend Larix Broadcaster (Android). It's very full-featured. Not quite OBS, but also not bad and does basic titling and overlays, etc.
<2022-03-07T20:16:40.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Was curious how the guy was streaming yesterday 
<2022-03-07T20:16:50.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Gotcha 
<2022-03-07T20:17:38.000Z> robcolbert: He was probably using Larix or similar. RTMP is the protocol, and FLV is the transport. If the software emits FLV over RTMP, it's Shing-compatible :)
<2022-03-07T20:18:11.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: I don't understand that language but I will learn. Thank you 
<2022-03-07T20:18:28.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: I'm a quick study 
<2022-03-07T20:18:37.000Z> robcolbert: The Web has "HTTP" (Hypertext Transfer Protocol). It moves HTML around the web.
<2022-03-07T20:18:50.000Z> robcolbert: Streaming has RTMP (Real Time Messaging Protocol). It moves FLV video around the web.
<2022-03-07T20:19:10.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Easy enough 
<2022-03-07T20:19:13.000Z> robcolbert: :)
<2022-03-07T20:19:22.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Like a boss 
<2022-03-07T20:19:29.000Z> robcolbert: Yessir :)
<2022-03-07T20:20:56.000Z> robcolbert: FLV is like a box into which you can put video. MP4 is another box. They can both move h.264 MPEG video from A to B. FLV is better for live video because it's much more forgiving, is built for real-time (low-latency) transmission, and can handle data loss (dropped frames).
<2022-03-07T20:21:51.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: So Just look at the properties for those features 
<2022-03-07T20:22:20.000Z> robcolbert: Yep. As long as the app emits h.264 video in an FLV transport on RTMP (protocol) it will work just fine.
<2022-03-07T20:22:31.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: K 
<2022-03-07T20:22:49.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: Shing mobile might be a thing 
<2022-03-07T20:22:55.000Z> robcolbert: Generally, anything that lets you enter a "Stream Key" with a "Stream URL" that resembles rtmp://server.com/your-stream-key should work.
<2022-03-07T20:23:11.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: I will investigate 
<2022-03-07T20:23:23.000Z> robcolbert: I'm here if you have more questions :)
<2022-03-07T20:23:34.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: K buddy. Thank you 
<2022-03-07T20:23:51.000Z> robcolbert: Please forgive my lag sometimes - I will respond. Once I focus on code, it can be hours before I look at a social site.
<2022-03-07T20:24:09.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: I'm in no rush.

<2022-03-08T21:06:56.000Z> robcolbert: rtmp://shing.tv/live/[stream key goes here]
<2022-03-08T21:07:20.000Z> robcolbert: Our "application" name is simply "live". Then a slash, and paste your stream key as-is.
<2022-03-09T07:55:27.000Z> CarbonFiberOG: is there a way to make notifications if someone goes live?
<2022-03-09T22:14:30.000Z> robcolbert: Soapbox has this now. If you subscribe to a channel, you should receive email letting you know they've gone live. If you aren't receiving the emails, go to Settings:Account, make sure the correct email address is there, and if you haven't received one, tell it to Resend Welcome Email.
<2022-03-09T22:14:45.000Z> robcolbert: The welcome email has a link you have to visit to verify your email. When you do that, you will begin receiving notifications.
