Short description: Watch a hacker congress or camp live on a projector in the space, or listen to it via the phone.

synopsis

The idea is, for people unable to attend the upcoming hacker congress or camp, to visit the hackerspace and watch the streams together on a projector screen/TV/monitor. Food and drinks will be taken care of as well!

It's a lot of fun if enough people join! Alternatively, people traveling can join the teleconference.

Also, we should have pixelflut leds (with Art-Net support) up around that time, so it's fun to show off your script/program.

More info on the discussion page.

roadmap / Fahrplan

See Congress' Fahrplan or Camp's Fahrplan for the latest schedule; streams will be selected ad-hoc. here

streams

video

Streams can be opened directly from Kodi, VLC or possibly your favorite media player. Because we want to suffer (originally lower the burden of CCC's data output), we're using multicast streams (including a mosaic overview). You can find the config here. The video links can be found here:

audio (phone)

We have conference audio streams (off and on since 2011), which now has been standardized.

Following the dialplan, there are two lists of extensions reserved for conferences: 130x and 139x where the last digit (1-9) stands for the corresponding stage/room, while the difference between the former and latter series is whether you are allowed to chat with other callers ("party line at 9"). See Telephone system:shoutcast streams for the FreeSWITCH configuration.

If you hear the SIT, that means no stream is configured for that conference room.

events in 2020

This year was a bit different; for people who want to watch the streams together, xopr created a virtual hackerspace in gather.town (might be password protected); ask via the regular channels if needed.

Also, the URL was changed to rc3.world, the incomplete schedule at fahrplan.events.ccc.de/rc3/2020/Fahrplan/, an almost complete version here and a local version that tried to parse the remote json here (after some use, the php script got an empty string back, which we had to mitigate, same for CORS and file-get-contents).

The HLS streams seemed to work better in multiple occasions, but then again: rC3 was suffering a DDoS attack and angry mob that came with it. Also, reloading the 'level' often fixed CDN lookups, and continued the stream.

This event was more of a dress rehearsal of getting the streams up and running on a (new) VM with the new mosaic script.

events in 2018

The mosaic was working again after a lot of compatibility issues with newer VLC versions. More than 4 cores are recommended to process all 8 streams for 35C3.

stuiterveer fixed the streams after deploying SpaceWorkhorse with an older version of VLC (lots of trial and error) and started virtualization of the services.
