stream flash video of vlc mpeg2 dvb stream

-
see other posts about streaming dvb. this sample below is receiving a vlc stream and re-encoding and streaming as flash.

in this case sky news on same server as vlc running

install ffmpeg , or checkout and build with mp3 support if your distro doesn't install with mp3support (likely)

see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 for ubuntu

run ffserver with this conf

----
Port 9090
# bind to all IPs aliased or not
BindAddress 0.0.0.0
# max number of simultaneous clients

# max bandwidth per-client (kb/s)

# Suppress that if you want to launch ffserver as a daemon.
NoDaemon


File /tmp/feed1.ffm
FileMaxSize 50M





Feed feed1.ffm
Format swf
VideoCodec flv
VideoFrameRate 25
VideoBufferSize 80000

VideoQMax 5
VideoSize 720x576
AudioBitRate 192

then at command line catch the vlc stream and pipe to ffmpeg, which then feeds to ffserver

curl -s -o- http://127.0.0.1:4710 | ./ffmpeg -i - -deinterlace http://localhost:9090/feed1.ffm


then open http://ip.of.ffdserver:9090/skynews.swf
and if you have flash support you should be happy :-)

or embed with

nginx decode base64 url for use with imgproxy

-
 i've been testing imgproxy, to handle our image serving needs, and it looks good. our existing servers are php based, and we sign and encode our urls for images.  To test out imgproxy , I wanted to simply drop it in as a replacement for our servers by sending a % of traffic.  There are many ways to do this, varnish was one, with custom code, but nginx is our go-to web server, so I had to find a way to have nginx sit in front of imgproxy and rewrite the decoded url. I settled on using njs, the cut down version of javascript that plugs into nginx as a loadable module.  Then use proxy_pass to pass the uri to javascript that will return the imgproxy compatable url, and proxy to it. a sample url would be http://foo.bar/images/c2lnbmF0dXJlZm9vaHR0cDovL3MzLWV1LXdlc3QtMS5hbWF6b25hd3MuY29tL215YnVja2V0b2ZwaG90b3MvcGhvdG9fb2ZfYV9jYXQ1fHx8MTIwMHgxMjAwfHx8fHx8fHw==.jpeg it has a sig, a bucket url, and parameters like image size.

using t1n1wall, opnsense or pfsense on Google Compute Engine GCE

-
I have been doing some work in GCP recently, both appengine , and GCE.  We wanted to make sure all our instances were on private ips and only the LBs had internet ips. This gave us the problem of how to allow our instances reach the internet for updates or for api calls outside. In AWS you had a NAT gateway, but in GCP this doesn't exist. So I set about looking at the easiest way to do NAT from a private IP subnet to a Public address.  I am very familiar with m0n0wall and t1n1wall and a tiny bit with pfsense and less with opnsense. The tl;dr is that all these distributions ship an image which within the distribution there is a disk image.  Taking this internal image, renaming it and re-compressing it is all you need to do to get it working in GCE. you can configure it via the serial port using these instructions  There are guides out there around doing things with Linux and stuff, but you can skip that step. I took the latest version of t1n1wall 2.11 , got the simple a
