• Ask HN: What are some promising decentralised, P2P streaming protocols?

  The pirate scene for sport event streaming is accessible through: * Ad-ridden, dubious websites with a streaming widget, which have a terrible user experience and are a single point-of-failure (servers get taken down routinely) * Acestream (https://acestream.org/), which is a proprietary streaming protocol on top of BitTorrent, available only via a closed-source, unaudited server. Very shady, but works somewhat... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Make work Acestream in Fedora

  Go to https://acestream.org/. If doesn't load, most probably your ISP is blocking it, then use Tor browser. Source: about 1 year ago

• Web3 Can’t Fix the Internet

  Acestream Uses the BitTorrent protocol to stream video, which is pretty neat. Not sure how effective that can be wholesale, as it’s speed and therefore quality would depend on having a big enough concurrent network. It’s been around a while though. Source: over 2 years ago

• Android 14 adds support for using your smartphone as a webcam

  I started with Droidcam during the pandemic and switched to Iriun. Currently using it with an old iPhone SE over USB, but also used with Huawei P20 Pro. Not many features, but just works. https://iriun.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• tribal home removal update, 2nd session

  I clamp the lasergun and my phone (with little stands and clamps like this , with the phone's cam pointing at the gun "nozzle") on my adjustable standing desk, then sit with my back in front of it, looking at my laptop on my lap that shows a stream from my smartphone cam (iriun.com).

• PLEASE SUGGEST webcam/background LIGHTING FOR THIS COMPLETELY ABNORMAL SET UP PS ITS IN A CLOSET

  For webcam I suggest a cellphone(s) and the droidcam or iruin software. Plenty of tutorials on youtube on how to set it up. Its pretty easy and I've used some very old cellphones with decent picture quality. Source: over 1 year ago

• How to use your DSLR from 2008 as a webcam in 2022 (NixOS)

  If you have {Windows, Mac Linux} and {Android, iOS}, you can use Iriun: https://iriun.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• what is the audio routing for if there is no virtual mic?

  Download and install a free program called Iriun Webcam from https://iriun.com -- This will be used later, you need an unused audio device for routing purposes, I like Iriun because it's free and I've never had any trouble with it, it also has four channels which can be useful.
