:tv: Transform your Raspberry Pi into an awesome streaming device.

OpenCast

OpenCast is a home theater application whose goal is to transform a computer as small as a Raspberry Pi into an awesome streaming device.

Key Features

• Lightweight fast media server, able to run on raspberry-pi.
• Tons of supported sites.
• Stream support (Youtube, Twitch ...)
• Playlist support
• Local library.
• VLC under the hood.

How To

Install

$ git clone https://github.com/Tastyep/Pi-OpenCast.git
$ cd Pi-OpenCast && ./setup.sh

⚠️ Because the web application has grown in size over time, it is possible that building on a raspberry-pi with <= 1giga of RAM will fail as it will run out of memory. In that case, you will have to build it manually on your computer by running the following command:

$ ./OpenCast.sh build webapp

Then transfer the generated ./webapp/build directory into the webapp directory on your raspberry-pi (filezilla is your friend).

Use

After successfully installing OpenCast, you should note the IP address of your raspberry-pi:

$ hostname -I

You can then access the webpage from any device on the same local network at <ip-addr>:8081

Monitor

OpenCast is managed as a systemd service and loaded automatically at startup time. To interact with the service, two options are available:

• Using systemctl (recommended)

$ systemctl --user [start|stop|restart|status] opencast

• Using the shell entry-point (advanced):

$ ./OpenCast.sh service [start|stop|restart|status]

Logs can be accessed running:

$ journalctl --user -u opencast
$ ./OpenCast.sh service back log

Configure

The backend and the web application can be configured through their configuration file:

• Backend: config.yml
• Webapp: webapp/.env

Source Code

The project is hosted on Github.

Please feel free to file an issue on the bug tracker if you have found a bug or have suggestions to improve OpenCast.

setup.sh error

Hello,

I tried installing OpenCast and upon starting setup.sh I get the error:
setup.sh: 7: setup.sh: bad substitution
I tried removing ,, from the 7th line I get another error
setup.sh: 11: setup.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Is this supposed to be run with sudo sh setup.sh or something else?
If I ran it correctly, how can I fix the error?
