This stream has no streaming company behind it.

How it works

1. A broadcaster streams from OBS or ffmpeg to an ingest server (SRS or OvenMediaEngine) over RTMP or SRT.
2. An uploader cuts the stream into HLS segments and writes each one to Swarm as it airs, so the archive builds itself.
3. A Swarm feed lists the streams and points to the newest playlist. The player follows the feed.
4. Viewers play it from a gateway, their own Bee node, or a node in the browser tab. Full HD through light nodes runs at about 10–15 s latency.
5. Swarm HLS Stream v3 (September) added adaptive bitrate and crash recovery.

Code being worked on now

• streaming-monorepo
  The platform: stream admin, ingest and uploader, infra manager. The streaming repos moved here on 27 Sep.
• stream-event-client
  The event viewer with chat, built for Devcon 8. Reads through a gateway, your own Bee node, or the in-browser node.
• swarm-srs
  Solar Punk's fork of the SRS media server, used for ingest.
• freedom-browser
  Freedom, a browser with its own Swarm node.
• Streaming inside Freedom: stream-event-client PR #15 (segments from the browser's own node) and PR #17 (feeds via window.swarm). Both have been open since early October.
