| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Specifically I'm not, I'm failing | 14:32:40 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | only the html web page on 8000 is working, the stream doesn't | 14:32:51 |
| n4ch723hr3r | wtf is that audio | 14:32:59 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | https://github.com/krebs/brainmelter/tree/main | 14:33:13 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Wait so once again, if I'm gonna use HLS, what am I using instead of icecast? | 14:34:03 |
| n4ch723hr3r | FFMPeg? | 14:34:25 |

It is a combination of http and tcp ah right, it had both.. I remember having it working back then but this was years ago so I forgot | 14:34:32 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Can I just use nginx itself? | 14:34:32 |
| n4ch723hr3r | i would probably just script something small myself xD | 14:35:03 |
| n4ch723hr3r | nginx to host the HLS stream where the HLS file gets regularily updated | 14:35:35 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | So let's say I want to make a player and embed this onto a webpage, how do I do things like setting the max listeners, and stuff | 14:35:54 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | is that responsibility now going to nginx? | 14:36:08 |
| n4ch723hr3r | yeah, you can set a bucket for maximum http requests | 14:36:36 |
| n4ch723hr3r | or maximum IPs | 14:36:47 |
| n4ch723hr3r | if you cant you would just have to code up something yourself xD | 14:37:01 |
| n4ch723hr3r | thats how i would do it at least :3 | 14:37:14 |
 Zhaofeng Li | Hmm wait, so the http stream used by the listener can be proxied right? Is it just the source that's problematic? | 14:38:02 |
| n4ch723hr3r | the problem with icecast is that, for whatever reason, it uses the same port for http as it does for raw TCP streams | 14:38:46 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | It's the fact that icecast wants to do what nginx is doing yes | 14:39:03 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | putting an nginx in front of icecast who wants to be in control of all this stuff, makes it a PITA | 14:39:27 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I don't doubt it can be done, I just don't know how, and it seems like a waste of time | 14:39:44 |
| Zhaofeng Li | In reply to @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat
the problem with icecast is that, for whatever reason, it uses the same port for http as it does for raw TCP streams Can the listener use the nginx-proxied endpoint, while the streamer accesses icecast directly over wireguard or whatever | 14:40:33 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | the listener is a http webpage | 14:40:59 |
| n4ch723hr3r | matthew wants to have a public webradio, so VPNs, etc. wont work | 14:41:31 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | you go to https://foo.com, inside is a html element pointing to https://icecast.foo.com/stream | 14:41:39 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | https://icecast.foo.com/stream doesn't work via a nginx proxy, because the stream is not http | 14:42:00 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | this works on the lan though, when not proxied | 14:42:11 |
