Project mention: i made a ball animation in my animations essentials class | reddit.com/r/Maya | 2023-01-26
Can I introduce you to https://www.screentogif.com or https://obsproject.com or quite literally uploading the video itself, rather than a video of a video?

srs
SRS is a simple, high efficiency and realtime video server, supports RTMP, WebRTC, HLS, HTTP-FLV, SRT, MPEG-DASH and GB28181.
I don't know the answer to the WebRTC part, but as long as you have a server with not-outrageously-priced outbound bandwidth, you can install an open source RTMP server like SRS[1], and stream to that RTMP server from OBS. It's really easy, configure the RTMP server & stream key, then "Start Streaming" which is right next to "Start Recording". You can then hand your friends a link, and they can play it in any media player with RTMP/HLS/FLV stream support, or you can add a simple web UI with e.g. hls.js[2] (very easy to write, there might even be prepackaged solutions) so that they truly don't need to download anything.

Project mention: Which not so well known Python packages do you like to use on a regular basis and why? | reddit.com/r/Python | 2022-08-26Vidgear and new deffcode library are my best. I bet you don't know none of them. But they're pretty awesome when it comes to video-processing and stuff.

SRT, or Secure Reliable Transport, is a type of streaming protocol that provides enhanced security and reliability for video streaming. SRT is becoming increasingly popular among broadcasters and streamers including industry stalwarts such as ESPN because of its ability to deliver high-quality content over challenging network conditions and for its ability to make contribution and stream ingestion easy. SRT streams provide improved security, low latency, and flexibility and is supported by a global community of developers all contributing to the open-source project. Because of the power of SRT streams, Dolby.io Real-Time Streaming has decided to launch support with an SRT open beta program.

Not sure about using a VLC source. I've been using this https://github.com/UpDownLeftDie/obs-random-videos for my starting soon, brb, and ending scenes. You put all the files you want randomized in a folder, then the executable, and it creates an html. The browser source scrambles the order every time the scene becomes active again.
