Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

VLC is anything but intuitive and I’m pretty sure you can’t encode media and save it on your computer, and for sure not on mobile devices
Come on, dude. Now you're just trolling.
https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation%3aStreaming_HowTo/Streaming_for_the_iPhone
Quit while you're ahead and just go do some reading.
You just sent a documentation page that comes straight from hell, having to use CLI on iPhone (how tf do I do that?), and on top of that it’s a page for STREAMING not TRANSCODING to a file
You can’t pull the file from your own device anyways. It would require device -> server -> device to then transcode locally
I mean, you just keep asking different people whether a thing that does X exists. They've all said no, but you can use Y plus mods to do it. Doesn't seem good enough for you.
Now you've risen to "VLC cant do that". I've shown you it can, and you not only beak back at me about it being CLI, but downvote me as well. Thanks for that.
Literally the first sentence:
"This functionality allows you to link VLC's transcoding capability with a segmenter which will in turn create the series of files needed for http live streaming to the iPhone"
You don't know what you're talking about, and you don't understand your own problem.
Regardless of any info you get here, you will still need to problem-solve. Good luck.
I appreciate the solutions you give, but they're too far away from my requirements.
Thanks, have a good day
