-- Streams
+Goals:
+
+- Good: Streamers are set up to broadcast from their own OBS if needed (could be a backup plan, could be the main plan)
+- Better: Streamers can connect to the VNC session for their track, manage OBS, start videos (with overlays), and browse the Q&A links
+- Best: Streamers can connect via emacsclient in orga@res.emacsconf.org, manage the task status, and have everything working
+
+Agenda:
+
+- Get familiar with the setup
+- Consider whether we want to prioritize local OBS (more screen real estate) or stream OBS (easier swapping, can be controlled remotely)
+- Consider whether we want mumble to be able to quickly add audio; how do we want to set it up scene-wise?
+
+
+### Broadcasting from local OBS
+
+- You can copy the profile from your track or look inside it for the icecast mount point details:
+ - Gen: rsync -avze ssh emacsconf-gen@res.emacsconf.org:~/.config/obs-studio/basic/profiles/ ~/.config/obs-studio/basic/profiles/
+ - Dev: rsync -avze ssh emacsconf-dev@res.emacsconf.org:~/.config/obs-studio/basic/profiles/ ~/.config/obs-studio/basic/profiles/
+
+- Sacha will turn off the OBS recordings on res so that you can test streaming from your computer
+ - If you&rsquo;re doing this independently, you can jump ahead to &ldquo;Test connecting to the VNC&rdquo; in order to stop the recording yourself
+
+- Verify with MPV:
+
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/gen.webm
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/dev.webm
+
+- With luck, the 480p streams will be up automatically as well
+
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/gen-480p.webm
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/dev-480p.webm
+
+
+### Connecting to the track VNC
+
+1. Stop broadcasting locally if you were testing local OBS.
+
+2. Install a VNC viewer on your system (ex: tigervnc-viewer).
+
+3. Set up your local environment:
+ - gen: export TRACK=gen; export TRACK\_PORT=5905
+ - dev: export TRACK=dev; export TRACK\_PORT=5906
+4. Copy the password:
+
+ scp emacsconf-$TRACK@res:~/.vnc/passwd vnc-passwd-$TRACK
+
+5. Forward your local ports:
+
+ ssh emacsconf-$TRACK@res.emacsconf.org -N -L $TRACK\_PORT:127.0.0.1:$TRACK\_PORT &
+
+6. Connect via VNC viewer to the appropriate forwarded port from your laptop
+
+ xvncviewer 127.0.0.1:$TRACK\_PORT -shared -geometry 1280x720 -passwd vnc-passwd-$TRACK
+
+ (If this doesn&rsquo;t find a VNC server to connect to, you can start it with `ssh emacsconf-$TRACK@res.emacsconf.org ~/bin/track-vnc`)
+
+7. Start recording. It&rsquo;s probably on workspace 2, so you can switch with Alt-2. Confirm that it is now broadcasting to the stream.
+
+8. Verify with MPV on your local system:
+
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/$TRACK.webm
+
+9. With luck, the 480p streams will be up automatically as well. On your local system:
+
+ mpv https://live0.emacsconf.org/emacsconf/$TRACK-480p.webm
+
+10. Play a video. It should display the video and update the overlays. If you need to update the overlays manually, you can copy files from `/data/emacsconf/overlays` onto `$HOME/other.png` and `$HOME/video.png`.
+
+ cd /data/emacsconf/stream/2022
+ track-mpv filename.webm
+
+11. Test Q&A. You can either wait for the video to finish or quit it with &ldquo;q&rdquo;.
+ You can paste in the URLs or use
+ `firefox /data/emacsconf/2022/index-$TRACK.html`
+
+ i3 cheat sheet:
+
+ - Alt-Enter creates a terminal
+ - Alt-d runs a command
+ - Alt-e toggles horizontal/vertical split
+ - Alt-f toggles full-screen
+ - Alt-w switches to tabbed view
+ - Alt-1 switches to workspace 1, Alt-2 switches to workspace 2
+ - Alt-Shift-2 moves things to workspace 2
+ - Alt-Shift-Left moves the current window to the left
+ - Alt-Shift-Right moves the current window to the right
+
+ 10. Use OBS or `pavucontrol` to adjust the volume of BBB as needed.
+
+ 11. Start an Emacs for emergency announcements.
+
+
+### Managing the stream from the agenda
+
+ssh orga@res.emacsconf.org
+emacsclient -c -nw -a emacs
+
+You can then use
+
+- emacsconf-stream-play-video
+- emacsconf-stream-open-qa-windows-on-change
+- emacsconf-agenda-by-track
+- emacsconf-agenda
+
+If things are going well, you can use C-c C-t on the agenda view to change a talk to PLAYING, CLOSED\_Q, or OPEN\_Q, and various things should appen in the background.
+
+Task shortcut:
+
+- **m (mpv):** PLAYING - -stream-play-video, emacsconf-stream-set-talk-info, publish the files to the media directory
+- **q (Q&A):** CLOSED\_Q
+- **o (open):** update the BBB redirect URLs to let people into the room
