zap stream was having issues so I setup and been using my stream host to bypass zap stream servers and it still shows up in zap stream. I'm not sure if zap stream is still having issues tho. I think they might be.

Who's your host? If I may ask? I have an owncast instance but streaming to the fed verse is wack! 😞

I don't have a host. I have a dedicated server so I just host the steam myself. I've tried hosting companies in the past but they are too expensive and I find VPS are too slow for most things. It's cheaper to get a dedicated server.

Sweet. How are you streaming to nostr, with zapstream being down?

i installed nginx on my server, then I installed the RTPM module. The I created a custom python script to send a kind 30011 to nostr, the python script starts and ends the stream.

Once you launch the python script Nostr and zap stream picks up my steam. I was confused about that at first but any site that listens for the 30311 event will show your stream. So zap stream is just playing my stream that's why it works.

Normally zap steam does the nginx, RTPM and python stuff.

I did all that using chatgpt but I am familiar with Linux administrator stuff so it's was difficult but I understand most of it.
