I belief that open source is the future and I like to use it, but I also like to create it. I have a passion for Linux, but in this times I think tools should run on all platforms. One of my favourite open source tools is ffmpeg, and for long my dream was to have a playout system based on that. Playout is a complex thing, because we have to deal with gaps and different timings. It can also be, that we have different audio/video formats and for playout we have to unify them. Another case is, that in this days everybody wants to go in the cloud. Specially for 24/7 video streaming this is interesting, because internet server have most time a way more stable network connecting, than a normal office situation.

Some years ago I started the project ffplayout, and this have all the benefits for a good and modern playout solution. It is written in python, which makes it very portable, it works with ffmpeg - what can take almost any audio/video format and transcode them. ffmpeg runs also on every platform, use not much resources and can run very well in cloud situation, because it don't need any GPU feature.

I would like to extent ffplayout more, with an modern, browser based, GUI. Add more features and hold it up to date.

If this touches you and my projects are interesting for you, them your welcome to become my sponsor!
