Show HN: Open Source Oddworks – Build a streaming platform for mobile tablet, TV
oddnetworks.comNice. I was just wanting to build my own backend for something like this without having to hassle w/ my own setups for HLS/DASH/chromecast/whatever. I would suggest a bit more documentation or at least overview material on how it looks wrt showing a catalog or other user input features beyond pure playback.
Thank you kodablash! We have a sync service that we're planning to release soon that can pull stuff in from AWS transcoders. Other than that, we also support Brightcove, Ooyala, and others. Join the slack if you'd like more info :)
As a developer at a media company, I know first hand, the effort required to bring streaming video across all the disparate platforms. Even if 50% of what is promised works out great, it will be a fantastic product for every media company.
hey tapsboy, thank you for the comment. This is in production right now for four companies, including Poker Central, Mark Levin, WME/IMG and ITPROTV. It's definitely been a ton of work, and lots more ahead. Still really appreciate the encouraging words. You're right, there's a ton of blood sweat and tears here that it's hard to understand if you haven't done it!
