I ([[user:jaume]]) colaborate in the project [http://giss.tv giss.tv], it is a netwoprk of icecast servers that shares bandwidth and contents. It is a non commercial network, and the structures uses only free software.

Also nobody wants to work setuping every time a TV plato to stream the event, so we need a minimal stable setup in metalab also. That mean lights, and michrophones installation. Among of cameras. Let's start for the beginning, a computer able to encode live ogg video from DV cams, that could be a minimal 3 GHz Ubuntu. Let-s call it '''streambox'''

To be able to stream in an easy/fix way from Metalab we need:

* STREAMBOX, approx. 3 GHz, with firewire and Ubuntu on it and some easy working programs installed.

* cameras: there is a lot of options for cameras. I think it is not interesting to stream using webcams coz the quality is not enough. Let's think on DV-cams, and 2 better than 1.

* a video/audio mixer or, instead (cheaper) 2 firewire ports and a [http://puredata.info Puredata] patch to mix the cameras. Puredata patch creates amazing real time production, but it is a bit more experimental. Probably this is the right reason to use it in Metalab. The Puredata community is a very curious community, recently a new map about them has been compiled: [http://stream.r23.cc/etc/puredata.html Puredata patch map] (uses an Java applet)
