Context And Goals
This tasks aims at providing an up-to-date and complete live CD made for streaming. In G.I.S.S. 2.0, a first version has been made, and is usable for most streaming situations, see Sa'habuntu Live CD version 11, it must now be adapted and completed with ad-hoc tools and howtos.
Work achieved
The decision has been taken to base the new release on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, the CD will mainly be produced for i686 in 32-bits mode.
Testing of streaming tools
The team has tested the streaming tools on Ubuntu Hardy and the results are as follows :
| Tool | State | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Theora Streaming Studio ( ffmpeg2theora ) |  |
Works with DV, not with webcams. |
| MuSE | |
Works with ogg files, not with mp3s. |
| Pure Data | |
The most versatile tool to stream audio and video. |
| Gstreamer | |
Works in command line ( complicated ), we will develop a simple streaming interface using the bindings to Python. |
| Freej |  |
Totally unresponsive on Hardy. |
| VLC Client | |
The GUI seems unusable and the stream very unstable and error prone. |
Some video editing tools have been tested also with success : Cinelerra, Kino, ...
Development of streaming tools

- The Pd patches have been improved to include mixing and recording fonctionalities.
- A development of an interface for GStreamer in in the works.
A list of now available streaming tools is here : Streaming Tools
