Public bug reported: URL: http://boxtream.unice.fr/
Description: Boxtream is a mobile and autonomous audio and video streaming and recording studio. Of course, depending on your own hardware choices, the number and extent of capabilities and the quality of the final results may vary, but at least the software part should be versatile enough to accomodate even the most basic hardware. Boxtream was mostly designed to stream live courses featuring a professor and his slides (or any other computer based output like software training, web browser, video player...), but can also be used to stream congresses, interviews and the like. Uses DV (Digital Video) Cameras. Can send audio and video to IceCast servers. Record more than one camera at once, to hard disk. Can control some types of Video Switches. Can overlay images and text. Dynamic loading of pipelines definitions. The graphical frontend can be quited and relaunched without stopping the encoder : this way you can continue control from a different location than you started it from. All the encoding parameters are preserved. Easy automation of any task at starting and ending time of each recording : automatic CD/DVD image generation and/or burning, PDF generation from slides capture, re-encoding in other formats and/or qualities, etc... Examples are included. A schema file in the graphviz dot format is automatically generated to represent a graphical view of your own scenario. Graphviz see http://www.graphviz.org/ BoxStream only uses hardware which don't need any proprietary driver or software. Our software is written in the Python language and does heavy use of the GStreamer framework. Additional Free Software is installed on the Box, for visioconferencing, non-linear audio or video editing, and so on... The final audio (currently Ogg/Vorbis) and audio+video (currently Ogg/Theora+Vorbis) streams are both sent to a remote IceCast or compatible streaming server and saved to the backend's local hard disk.
