Yeah that’s a fair point but its a full website with only one page for streaming in this case

Seems this is the way to go amongst all the replies. Didn’t realise i could reverse proxy a camera stream! Thank you

Reverse proxy the stream and reference itself in the reverse proxied website? Is there no way to do it internally in nginx?

Hadn’t heard of it before. Thank you!

I dont know… you tell us! There is a market for all sorts of things

In any case this isn’t an OF/ kink kind of website, rest assured :)

Ooh i see. So Funnel provides an encrypted tunnel and proxy URL for the camera stream out of my network?

So i point the video player to that “public” address and its good to go?

Interesting!

Nothing obvious in the browser logs. Not even a 404 but ill check the other logs again. Thanks!

I need the website to serve to public users but the website itself is out of scope of this post.

One of the pages will be a video player

Apologies if it wasn’t clear.

Yes, I have an RTSP stream all the way to my local network. I can pick up the RTSP stream and also HLS, WebRTC etc. all locally. For all intents and purposes I have a stream ready to go on the local network at 192.168.X.A

The webserver is also on 192.168.X.Y and serves wordpress just fine.

I just dont know how to make the two talk. When I go to https:// website. com the embedded stream looking for 192.168.X.A doesn’t work

However if I go directly to 192.168.X.A in my browser the stream works just fine (I’ve ommited ports in this comment)

Free, self hostable, not subscription based, and lots of support. I’m making a whole website of which one page will be a “live stream”. Happy to explore other options though!

Edit: It won’t be a high traffic production website btw. Just a basic one for a select few users

Is that just to bring the webserver/ WordPress on to the same subnet? Because they already are at this point… everything’s on the 192.X subnet.

At this point we can ignore the VPN and just assume I’m trying to pick the stream up from mediaMTX

Crowdsec?

They had a very very similar thing in bicentennial man

In terms of raw data, any properly calibrated equipment should be identical.

You could build one yourself or have a look at how to get readings from your actual electricity meter. Both can be found on the open energy monitor project page. If you self build i guess you could use a lower value CT that amplifies lower currents and just not use it at higher loads?

Mains power fluctuates a LOT though so youll definitely need averaging to some extent

Yep it was a struggle to find. I checked website, issues and then finally made a last attempt at the change logs. It should be advertised more for that added piece of mind.

I didnt mean to shoot your app down by the way, in case it came across that way. Ive never used these apps

Thanks for developing your version though. People like you make this community what it is :)

Encryption and password protection is in the changelog for drips first version v0.0.1 - 5 years ago

I couldnt find your app on fdroid btw

VSCodium is less bloated

Theres so much to unpack…! But ill try and throw something in the mix.

I dont know if freenas/ truenas supports a lot of addons or whatever they call it but the moment you mentioned media and games my thought went to proxmox, though i suppose you might also be able to get away with a bunch of docker containers.

Soo… proxmox (or any hypervisor) will allow you to run multiple segregated VMs and containers.

On one vm you can install freenas/ truenas (whichever the good one is atm, im a little out of touch) and allocate the bulk storage drives to it.

Another vm for Plex/jellyfin

Another for minecraft, factorio, tf2

Another for nextcloud/ webserver

Nextcloud provides webdav/ caldav for calendar and contact syncing so sorted there. It also has a collabora app i think for collaborative document working.

In terms of security, you want to follow nextclouds secure configuration guide as a start.

The best way is to use a vpn to access your home network. Maybe give the others access if you trust them but you may then need to do some vlanning and segregation to protect the rest of your home network from them.

If you must expose to the net (which you may do with the games servers) then again, the config guide has you covered, use crowdsec, use https, use random ports, use strong passwords and mfa.

Do regular backups. 3 copies, 2 separate storage mediums, 1 offsite (3-2-1 rule).

Idk about the 8tb drive.

The above isnt the be all end all. Let it be the start of a discussion and your research journey
