Full Metal Jacket.

Some folks on Facebook will watch anything. God your lives must be dull. I even put up a "WARNING! streaming video testing" up first.

if your not trying to answer the question can I stream video ÃƒÆ’¢â‚¬â€¹simultaneously to failbook and poo tube using an old ammo box with a mini pc in it, then the following very dull video is not for you.

It's really dull, for some reason I had issues with failbook, its slightly shorter on failbook as I actually talk a bit by the time I worked out what went wrong:

Project Full Metal jacket, how it It works.

Sign up for a free Amazon account, spin up an EC2 instance of Ubuntu. Build nginx and its rtmp module. Then tell nginx your YouTube key and Facebook keys. Then just push the video stream from OBS to the EC2 Ubuntu instance.

Cost.

• Ammo box $20 NT General Store
• lenovo mini pc, 3rg gen i5, hybrid drive 4G ram $210 inc postage
• elgato game capture $80 ebay
• camcorder $80 ebay.
• tripod $10 Darwin Dump.
• software OBS - free nginx - free
• server - EC2 micro instance - free

Soon I'll be doing proper streams for NT rugby, the Sailing club etc. My new steady cam / gimbal also went well today. Her's the South Darwin Bunnies in action. Not bad for hand held video (I had a beer in hand too) Steady cam was about $12 plus postage :-)

Double win day! Now I'm off to plug a raspberry pi into a VHF and write an AIS yacht tracker wilts drinking - damn I'm good!
