# Liquidsoap Script for Bronydom Video Stream (for streaming to an Icecast2 server)
# Doesn't support RTMP yet, also needs a pretty powerful server to handle.

# Set/change the following:
# hostname, portno, passw, mountpoint
# playlistdir (directory of all the videos, automatically recursively searches for files)

# The default values require a local instance of Icecast2 to be running.

hostname = "localhost"
portno = "8000"
passw = "hackme"
mountpoint = "/video"

playlistdir = "~/Videos/"

set("log.file",false)
set("log.file.path","/path/to/log/file")
# Nah, we don't need log files right now, we can just go to the console for that.

set("log.stdout", true)
set("log.level",3) # Set loglevel to 3, for debugging purposes.

# Set 480p resolution @ 24fps
set("frame.video.width", 848)
set("frame.video.height", 480)
set("frame.video.samplerate", 24)

# Now we setup the video source. If no videos are located, fallback to a blank stream.
source = playlist(playlistdir)
security = blank(id="blank")
videostream = fallback(track_sensitive = false, [source, security])

# GStreamer outputs require this so that Liquidsoap doesn't handle syncing, but rather GStreamer itself
clock.assign_new(sync=false,[videostream])

# Now we output to the Icecast2 server.
output.icecast(
%ogg(
  %theora(
    quality=20,
    width=848,
    height=480
  ),
%vorbis.cbr(
    samplerate=44100,
    channels=2,
    bitrate=128
)),
format="video/ogg",

# End of script. That's all it takes :D
