The pandemic has brought live streaming video to the masses. Panoramic 360° video offers more immersion, but has unique challenges. There are plug and play solutions, however they use centralized services such as Facebook and YouTube that invade our privacy and spam us with ads. In this talk (live streamed in 360° video) i will explain how to setup your own 360° live stream using your own free software streaming servers and viewing the 360° stream on desktops, mobile devices and VR headsets in the browser. If you want to setup your own stream you'll need a camera (i tested with Insta360 One R and HumanEyes Vuze). The talk will cover all parts: 1. Camera setup 2. Setting up the RTMP streaming server 3. Adding HTML5 Live Streaming (HLS) 4. Setting up browser based clients for desktop, mobile and VR about this event: https://program.mch2022.org/mch2022/talk/EBKZRV/
