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.

Video Streaming Update

jdixon — Wed, 14 Mar 2007 03:52:19 +0000

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).

The following VLC patch enables RTSP support via the liveMedia libraries. The attached liveMedia port will need to be extracted into your /usr/ports/ directory before you perform a make install. Although this patch is only tested against -current, it should work with OpenBSD 4.0 and -stable with minimal edits. If you need further assistance, please post your questions to the talk mailing list.
