Make first time set-up instructions clearer
-
Is currently says:
This app is pre-setup with an admin account. The initial credentials are:
Username: admin
Password: abc123 (this is also your stream key)The admin page of OwnCast is located at the https://stream.uniteddiversity.coop/admin .
Please change the admin password immediately.
For a while I was totally baffled about how to change the admin password, until I realised there is no admin password, there is only the "stream key".
I think the last line of the set-up instructions should be changed to something like:
Please immediately change the stream key (which is your admin password) in
Configuration->Server Setup. -
