This is a 24/7 streaming solution based on python and ffmpeg.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The goal is to play for every day an xml playlist, while the current playlist is still editable.

Features
|
|
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- have all values in a separate config file
|
|
|
|
|
- try to be as simple as possible
|
|
|
|
|
- dynamic playlist
|
|
|
|
|
- replace missing playlist or clip with a blank clip
|
|
|
|
|
- send emails with error message
|
|
|
|
|
- overlay a logo
|
|
|
|
|
- trim and fade the last clip, to get full 24 hours, if the duration is less then 6 seconds add a blank clip
|
|
|
|
|
- set custom day start, so you can have playlist for example: from 6am to 6am, instate of 0am to 12pm
|
|
|
|
|
- minimal system requirements and no special tools
|
|
|
|
|
- we only need **ffmpeg**, **ffprobe** and a buffer tool like **mbuffer** or **pv**
|
|
|
|
|
- no GPU power is needed
|
|
|
|
|
- ram and cpu depends on video resolution, I recommend minimum 4 cores and 3.5GB ram for 576p
