DebConf5VAMeetingAgenda

Agenda for the next DebConf5 video+administration meeting, April 18, 20:00 UTC, on #debconf-team on irc.debian.org.

5 people attending: mooch, liiwi, martinl, lightsey, h01ger

• Video streaming + recording
  • intro of participating persons
    • mostly skipped. lightsey and martinl are familar with video, but not with streaming
  • setup as seen from the end user :-) (aka: what do we want to provide)
    • lets stick to the recording part first and foremost and try streaming inside and outside the campus once we have it working fine
    • this means: streaming is completly optional
  • hardware setup
    • two fw-cams (NTSC) from lightsey
    • one fw-cam (NTSC) from martinl
    • martinl says: pal/ntsc is definitely minor -- will hurt if we want to produce a seamless dvd, but for web-delivery, it's perfect.
    • we're not going to use the mics from the cameras but external mics
    • mooch will check the audio installation which is available at HUT
    • liiwi can get wired mics loaned if forewarned properly
      • wired mics are cool -- in fact a lot more reliable.
    • we need around 10GB/hour for quicktime DV. and a 1 hour video takes 1 hour to move to a pc.
  • software setup
    • flumotion or ffmpeg seems to be the question
    • martinl will investigate within two weeks and report to the list
    • needs to be taken a closer look still
  • organizing the recordings at debconf to happen
    • someone has to do it - those volunteers operating the cameras wont do anything if they dont know what to do :)
  • security/insurance
    • we have to have a safe place to keep them overnight, and a means to track who's checked the camera out, and whether it's been checked back in.
    • currently money is tight - so it's not possible to cover insurance from debconf. this might change

The 2nc half of the meeting was very short, as martinl left & liiwi and mooch had to go to bed...
