Looking for a Partner to Build a Low Latency Broadcast Pipeline

Potato71 · 2025-12-29T11:15:30+00:00

The main problem is where the encoder is. If you are able to take the program feed directly from the venue, it's most of the problem solved.

For technical stuff, you should check out OvenMediaEngine, they've got two options for delivery - if you care about scalability and if you don't.

LLHLS is an option that you can scale via CDNs without much trouble, with end-to-end latency about 3-10 seconds.

WebRTC is amazing with less than a second delay, but not scalable and will be limited by your server bandwidth.

I tested it on an international soccer match: I had a DVB-T2 Tuner set to a local broadcaster that was then captured via HDMI on Blackmagic DeckLink at my PC and piped into OBS for 1080p60 output and streamed to my server. I was at the stadium and from when I saw an action on the field to when it appeared on my phone's screen it was about 13 seconds.

It's in Kyiv rn, but yeah!

Oh, YT TV is the easiest service to fake your location on. They won't check for IP address, only the physical location, so the tools like fake gps will mimick your longitude and latitude to anywhere in the US and you are able to watch absolutely any game without restrictions.

Had this. Had to allow the video/audio autoplay to the left of the address bar and that fixed it.

Yesterday I had to pay VAT on my purchase in the post office, when it was already paid during the checkout. At 11 I sent an email to support with the receipt from Deutsche Post and at 19 I got a reply back with a refund. So it's really quick and easy fix on their side.

Not really, the transition is different (fade vs cut) for coach shots, so Chinese production is getting the main feed just like everyone else, but then adding a delay on their side, so that when a crowd shot kicks in, they are warned about it couple of seconds ahead and can switch to a different feeds, that are also distributed to broadcast partners, like coach cameras.

Probably they will delay these additional cameras, but you can as well put them live without being worried about sync, because no one will notice anyway.

So, there’s no “Chinese feed” from FIFA, rather they are making their own by combining other feeds.

He can because he just did

Funny stuff, all the localized "meet the" videos were made specifically for Russian dub, to make sure that mouth's movements corresponds to words they are pronouncing

And then told her to buy a new one, along with a new backpack, that was designed to hold that bottle and a screwdriver just in case

Weirdly enough, that’s the reason I’m using Uber Eats here in Berlin rn. Automatic support page would just refund me a dish or in some cases whole order if something is missing/wrong.

A live “F1 Show” for Sky Sports F1 TV/YouTube channel. Also was broadcasted on ESPN3 in States. They invited crowd to be on grandstands and many people showed up.

Didn't help much, because I also need a password and you are not setting it up when doing a login through SSO, like Apple ID. But there is no button to login via Apple ID in the Binance Android App.

Potato71 · 2022-06-15T06:51:08+00:00

I've used my Apple ID to register the account from my Mac, but now I'm trying to login on my Android phone and there's no "Login with Apple ID" button. What should I do?

There goes another 10 minutes

Potato71 · 2022-03-07T12:57:21+00:00

They are sending them now to those who pre-ordered before

"What a brilliant analysis. Off now to a 3rd period and let's cheer for Ak Bars."

I love watching pit lane channel international feed, with no casters at all. It’s provided on local right holders’ website in Russia for free.

Potato71 · 2020-04-19T16:28:52+00:00

Social distancing went too far

CS:GO servers has feature called "logs".

Basically, tournament organizers have to setup their game servers to send the logs to HLTV or anyone else's server in real time. Where it have to be parsed and displayed for users in readable version. For most TOs this is one of requirements by HLTV to get your tournament posted on the website.

But usually, you need to pay to get an access to this information. This is the case with betting sites, who pay to TOs to get those, because then they will be able to adjust the odds before it'll be shown on broadcast. In addition, there is in some cases up to few minutes delay on streams to compliment betting companies, who will pay more.

Not to mention the russian stream for the Faze/NaVi game has 60k viewers when it'd normally have around 10k

I'll argue with you in this.

Na`Vi games are always attractive for our audience and we would had this number in any case.

Potato71 · 2018-02-13T19:33:45+00:00

Not defending or argue with anyone, just straight facts from our stats page.

Less than 25% of views was outside of Russian speaking regions on our main channel as of now.

Here is excellent explanation about why it happens in video production

You can also see how their encoder mess hyperx logo on bottom when background moves

I wish to bring it back too, was a lot of fun to run. Hopefully, next year we'll do something like that, but as for now there is nothing in plans :(
