Where's the discord? #95

Closed pato-pan closed 6 months ago

It's mentioned in the readme, but it's not linked anywhere. I have a problem with the video not being shown when I selfhost (built from source) and watch the stream, I only receive audio, I use OBS to stream

Sorry you're having issues! Here's the link to the discord https://discord.gg/YMRrkQnb, one issue with discord invite links as they expire relatively quickly.

Do you have the same issue when you broadcast to https://b.siobud.com?

pato-pan commented 6 months ago

no, only when I self-host

I also built from source, I can't use docker because last time I had it installed and I updated my system linux-vmz just noped out of nowhere for no reason (it restarted my desktop environment mid-update).

Is there any chance you can create a permanent discord link to add to the readme?

Sorry about that @pato-pan!

If you click the discord badge it is a link. I also updated the 'Join the discord' to be a link.

My guess is that the self host box is constrained in some way (network/cpu/?) if that is the only variable!

Hey good news, I figured it out!

It works on Firefox and Chromium, but not Waterfox. I am not sure why, I tried to find the setting that didn't allow it to work, but couldn't find it and I don't want to spend more time trying to find it.

Thanks for the update.

the h264 plugin is not installed, that's why it's happening. This can happen commonly on fresh installs and whenever your browser is not able to connect to the internet. After it has connection to the internet, accessing a website that requires the plugin should fix it (like this one https://shaka-player-demo.appspot.com/demo/ for some reason the server didn't prompt the browser to install it right away)
