In cooperation between @vhsky and @openalt we'd like to demonstrate that even a large-scale conference can be live streamed without #YouTube. An initial stress test showed that 7 concurrent streams in multiple resolutions exceeded the capabilities of the server Vhsky.cz runs on (32core i9-13900 and 96 GB RAM).
However, the Fediverse community helps each other. @bycx loaned us a real beast machine which we now use as an external runner for transcoding jobs. It passed today's stress test with flying colors.
Thank you @archos for the work on the runner and @Bashynx on the stress test. Fingers crossed for the next weekend. 🤞
