The MetaBUG is proud to present our first official video presentation this evening. Matt Fisher will be presenting his Vulnerability 2.0 talk at the Capital Area BSD Users Group. The CapBUG meeting starts at 6:30pm EDT (-04:00 GMT); we expect to have the video stream started shortly thereafter, with Matt’s talk beginning around 6:45pm EDT.

We welcome all MetaBUG members world-wide to join us for Matt’s presentation. Please remember that the stream will be via RTSP using H.264/AAC codecs. If you have any questions about platform support with the stream, please refer to this post.

Live Stream

Today we have officially announced MetaBUG to the world! Welcome to Undeadly and Digg readers!

I was able to get streaming server software installed on a well-connected system over the weekend. Thanks to work by Brad Smith, OpenBSD-current will soon have a patched version of VLC that supports RTSP for live video feeds. A few users have tested this out while I streamed a test feed from my laptop, and it works great! We should be able to support dozens of remote clients, but the true test will come at the next CapBUG meeting (speakers willing). Read on for more details about patching VLC if you can’t wait for the OpenBSD ports to unfreeze (or you’re a Free/Net/DragonFlyBSD user).
