Streaming PC
Efficiently named, the streaming pc is simple but very effective. But don't let it update unless you're prepared for it to break. It's equipped with:
| Specs | |
|---|---|
| CPU | Intel Core i5-12400 |
| RAM | 16GB DDR4 3200MHZ |
| Boot Drive | Inland 256 GB PCIE 3.0 NVME SSD |
| Data Drive | 3TB HGST HDD |
It's currently (as of 5/2023) running Windows 11. It's configured to launch Bitfocus Companion (minimized) and OBS Studio on launch, so just hitting the power button gets it ready to stream. Recordings are stored on the HGST hard drive in the videos directory. OBS is configured to stream to Cloudflare Stream and encodes with the Quicksync encoder built into the CPU at around 6000kbps. Recordings might use the CPU and AV1 or Quicksync and H.264 at similar bitrates.
It was built in 2022 by Alton Bredthauer.
