Self Hosted Video Sharing?

sanvit · May 2020

Hi

I am looking for an software that can get my video, convert it to multiple resolutions, throw it to Wasabi, and provide a video player. So something like Cloudflare Stream or YouTube alternative, but self-hosted (and videos stored on S3 compatible storage).

I tried looking through awesome-selfhosted and alternativeto.net but didn't get any useful information.

If anyone knows a script similar to this, please let me know

Thanks, and take care during the pandemic

You can look up publit.io. I have been using it for a few media files. They have probably what you are looking for. Monthly base plan is I think 100 GB storage/ 500 GB BW. Not quite the S3 compatible part you were looking for.

Another option is swarmify but thet are a cdn and not necessarily a host.

Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin maybe? https://alternativeto.net/software/plex/

Get video, convert video, throw it to wasabi can be done via ffmpeg and rclone with some scripting. Provide a video player could be done with videojs and some web dev.

Aside from that, nothing rings a bell.

Yeah, I was looking at swarmify, but wasn't really what I was looking for I looked at publit.io but seems like it's way over my budget. Thanks

They look more like a Netflix alternetive. I was looking for more of a video sharing service (like YouTube or Cloudflare Stream). It seems like I should make my own script Thanks

Publitio has lifetime offer at 99 USD if that is up your alley.

Would https://prologic.github.io/tube/ be suitable? Not sure on the storage side of it though.

Thanks for your recommendation! I did look through tube before, but didn't meet my use case.

I actually just created a bash script which encodes to multiple resolutions and upload to wasabi when it's done.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations

It doesn't seem to transcode the video. It seems like my personal script is my best bet

Thanks

I looked into this with ffmpeg scripting a few years ago, but never finished it. Would you mind tossing your script up on github?

dedipromo · May 2020

You need this. https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo

Formerly known as YouPHPTube, it's a well developed youtube-like self-hosted open-source video platform script.

EDIT: and an instruction to set up the script: https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/install-youphptube-ubuntu-18-04-server

I mostly copy-pasted from this script (check create-hls-video.sh) : https://docs.peer5.com/guides/production-ready-hls-vod/
this plus few lines which should upload to Wasabi.

Edit : make sure to change the AAC encoder to libfdk_aac for way better audio quality

Thanks! I'll have a look at this

The gui on mobile does not seem good!

I have setup a website on our servers at rkstube.com based on https://www.phpvibe.com/ and it seems to be working fine. You can check them both out.
