      So, I've got it all enabled in the config, but apparently for it to show up in the mobile app, some nginx tweaks are needed: https://docs.pixelfed.org/running-pixelfed/optional-features/livestreaming/#installing-and-configuring-nginx-rtmp

      Not sure how we'd pull that off.

          Actually, I've not seen it appear in the mobile app - I'm wondering if it tries to reach out to ping the rtmp endpoint or something and hides if fail?

          HLS_LIVE=true
          HLS_LIVE_BROADCAST_SOURCE_APP=true
          HLS_LIVE_BROADCAST_MAX_ACTIVE=10
          HLS_LIVE_BROADCAST_MAX_DURATION=60
          HLS_LIVE_BROADCAST_SOURCE_WEB=true

          Going to try to watch the logs to see if it throws anything like missing RTMP or something.

            Logs don't appear to generate anything interesting regarding it. I did a code search (https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/search?q=live) and it looks pretty straightforward. I wonder if there's a composer or laraval thing that needs to be done.

              We have just published a new app package which has livestreaming support (the previous didn't have that), however this is still for testing, so please let us know if there is any difference now.

                Hey there @nebulon - great work on the bump. I still don't see a change - I peaked at the nginx config and see a websocket port opened, but I think we're still missing something. From https://docs.pixelfed.org/running-pixelfed/optional-features/livestreaming/ it looks like we need an HLS port open as well?

                  @doodlemania2 It's in the manifest :

                    "tcpPorts": {
                      "HLS_LIVE_PORT": {
                        "title": "Live streaming port",
                        "description": "Live streaming port (only default works)", 
                        "containerPort": 1935,
                        "defaultValue": 1935
                      }
                    },
                  

                  Can you check the Location section of the app?

                    Ah - doink, sorry about that. Okay, I ticked the box to turn that on. Still not seeing any changes in the app despite the configs being set. We're still missing something, but not sure what it is. Could be my upstream proxy, will try to route around it to test.

                      @doodlemania2 Spent some time with the android app yesterday but there is no option to enable Live Streaming as such. Are you on iOS or the Android app?

                        Sounds like the official apps will be in the apps stores in a month of so.

                        https://mastodon.social/@pixelfed/110312061392315948

                        Perhaps those are what is needed to use this? 🤷

                        Presumably everything mentioned in the docs here are now included in the package?

                        https://docs.pixelfed.org/running-pixelfed/optional-features/livestreaming/

                          @jdaviescoates ah, that's great news. Yes, we have integrated all that's possible. Now, we need something to test it with.

                            I was hoping the testflight (ios) app just started working when the app is configured. I also set the web app to be a broadcaster (it was an option in the configs) but that didn't change anything either. Perhaps he's holding the code back for the next release or something 🙂

                              Maybe you could ask upstream what the status is and how it is supposed to work? Otherwise we might look into the entirely wrong corner.

                                Sorry for my absence - I will go through this thread tomorrow and see what needs to be done because so already was able to stream (on another instance)

                                  @jaschaezra Is that instance public for us to test/understand how this feature works ? Also, does one need to enable any option in the mobile app? Where in the mobile app can one stream? Any screenshots will help.

                                    @girish At the moment you need the Pixelfed Live App to stream. Get the apk here: https://dl.apps.pixelcdn.net/pixelfed-live/android/pixelfed-live-v1.0.1-release.apk

                                    As far as I know it should be merged into the iOS and Android App but I do not know the status at the moment. I asked upstream to provide some more info.

                                          Port 1935 is the question for me.

                                          Pixelfed wants to use this port by default for livestreaming, and there is a notification saying that only the default works.

                                          However, a couple of other Cloudron packages want Port 1935, too:

                                          PeerTube (and apparently port 1935 is/was hardcoded into it, so you can't/couldn't change it.)
                                          OwnCast (which will work on port 1936 to allow PeerTube to keep port 1935)

                                          So, would Pixelfed livestreams work if you had PeerTube on 1935?
