end to end it goes roughly like this:

1. user uploads an audio file

2. backend uses ffmpeg to convert it into HLS files (chunked mp3s + text manifest)

3. HLS files made available on basic fileserver over http

4. HLS manifest url goes into note metadata

5. client gets note, fetches manifest, (manifest includes time markers + mp3 chunk urls) and JIT loads chunks into player

ah damn, that's super simple; love it

I think this could fit into NIP-94 if we added some additional tags like “stream_url” and “download_url”.

#[6]​ uses a custom kind 1808 for this but only because kind 1063 didn’t exist at the time.
