[Savonet-users] Browser-based streaming now supported in liquidsoap!

[Romain B. <ro...@li...>]

Hi all,

I am very excited to announce that we have just merged the websockets
pull request into liquidsoap's master branch on github:
  https://github.com/savonet/liquidsoap

This code is the result of the work that Sam and I did in the past
month and consists of a protocol and API to stream audio and video
data from the browser to liquidsoap and potentially other streaming
servers.

The protocol itself is documented and implemented there:
  https://github.com/savonet/webcast

Please note that at the moment, the examples only work with a recent
Chrome and may be choppy. The protocol and examples will be fully
functional first in Firefox Nightly when they finish implementing the
Web Audio API and in Chrome once they support asm.js optimizations.

Meanwhile, feel free to experience with it. The examples in the
websocket directory are not pretty but they should give you a good
idea about what's required to implement a browser streaming client.

Please, let us know any feedback and question that you may have
concerning this project.  We are very excited because we believe that
it fills a gap that we've been waiting to address for a long time and
that should provide really convenient streaming solutions in the
future.

Take care y'all!
Romain
