livestream

Took me a while to figure out how to actually get OBS to start streaming and how to get all the bits and pieces configured but I did eventually create a short livestream of a REPL-based workflow for working on a web app -- which is what some non-Clojure folks had asked me to walk them through.

It was a bit scrappy so I deleted it, but at least now I know the process.

The quality of the video over the code wasn't as good as I would have liked -- the set up guide suggests playing with the frame rate (I took the default of 30 fps). Worth lowering it to make things less choppy?

I've only used http://livecoding.tv, but just clicked on the http://liveedu.tv link

qqq 2017-01-12T05:22:44.000018Z

every time I look at a live coding site, I feel like my emacs/cider setup is woefully inadequate

seancorfield 2017-01-12T05:24:20.000021Z

I'll be live streaming with Atom / ProtoREPL -- I'm happy with that (after several years of Emacs/CIDER).

qqq 2017-01-12T05:24:46.000022Z

cool; when will you livestream ?

qqq 2017-01-12T05:25:40.000023Z

I just realized http://livecoding.tv now redirects to http://liveedu.tv

seancorfield 2017-01-12T05:29:12.000024Z

I may start some streaming tomorrow...

qqq 2017-01-12T05:29:50.000025Z

if I'm around, I'll join; I think having cljojure experts live streaming will benefit the community

seancorfield 2017-01-12T05:31:26.000026Z

Oh, the first stream is going to be a very basic workflow stream with a dummy project example...

seancorfield 2017-01-12T05:32:46.000027Z

My non-Clojure friends can't imagine developing an app using a live REPL into the app, so I'm going to demo that.

seancorfield 2017-01-12T06:56:39.000028Z

Well, I finally got it running on Windows (sort of) but my system is underpowered. I was more successful on my big Mac earlier 🙂

qqq 2017-01-12T06:58:11.000029Z

I can run youtube, jvm, emacs, figwheel without my mbp fan spinning

qqq 2017-01-12T06:58:19.000030Z

I turn on OBS @ 1920x1080 -- the fn spins up

sveri 2017-01-12T07:00:28.000031Z

Yea, obs uses some CPU. Real time encoding needs power. But thats what the CPU is here for:smile:

qqq 2017-01-12T07:02:54.000032Z

everyone should just use emacs; then someone should write a elisp plugin taht livescreams emacs buffers to html

I thought my Dell XPS 12 would be a lot more powerful than the little Linux netbook (System 76) I used to carry around... now I'm not so sure... My next machine is going to be a high-end Microsoft Surface for sure.

seancorfield 2017-01-12T07:48:15.000034Z

The WSL is pretty solid in the latest build (15002) but I need Win10 Pro for Docker etc. Sigh.

seancorfield 2017-01-12T07:48:24.000035Z

Seriously first world problems.

sveri 2017-01-12T07:52:27.000036Z

@seancorfield Do you develop or more managerial stuff?

qqq 2017-01-12T07:54:56.000037Z

@seancorfield : here's my first world problem: my mbp only supports 2 external 1920x1080 monitors 😞

seancorfield 2017-01-12T07:58:18.000038Z

@sveri Well, technically I have no one reporting to me 🙂 I primarily develop systems. Even when I manage developers.

sveri 2017-01-12T08:01:25.000039Z

@seancorfield I cannnot imagine developing any stuff on such a "small" thing. Even working on it for several hours. Except you have a docking station of course and extra keyboard / monitors.

seancorfield 2017-01-12T08:05:47.000040Z

"small"?

sveri 2017-01-12T08:18:38.000041Z

Any Laptop / Tablet is small for me. I need at least two screens, a dedicated keyboard and Mouse, a lot of space for sheets and paper and at its best a Box where i can exchange hardware myself.

seancorfield 2017-01-12T09:34:06.000043Z

Ah, ok. Yes, my day job has a 27" screen.
