Slides streaming script

This script captures 1024x768 pixels from the top right screen (the projector screen). The screens can be configured in these three ways:

Mirrored, 1024x768: The whole screen is streamed.
Dual, 1280x800 + 1024x768: The screen on the right is streamed. Make sure that the two screens are top aligned and contiguous.
Dual, 1024x768 + 1024x768: The screen on the right is streamed. Make sure that the two screens are contiguous.

480p Scaling script

This takes a video that is being streamed at live*.fsf.org/video.webm, scales it down to 480p, and publishes it back as live*.fsf.org/video-480p.webm

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# != 1 ]; then

Commands to set the webcam

The following commands make use of v4l2-ctl, available in package v4l-utils.

The following values are an initial template for a Logitech c930e camera. The two main values to tweak depending on the light quality of a specific room, are:

white_balance_temperature: 2000 to 7500. 3000 is a good value for fluorescent lights, the lights at Stata are redder, they may need a lower value. Room 123 has some natural light, may need a higher value.
gain: use this value to increase or decrease the luminosity. If the room is too dark and the value needs to be higher than 80 or so, it is advisable to increase exposure_absolute to 600, and use a lower gain value (that would get lower noise, at the expense of more motion blur).
