I figure we could watch game/match live streams mostly. We'd never really run out of live content, since there are events all over the world happening year round.
UPDATE: "The Cytube has a very decentralized, horizontal, and anarchistic moderation system, which is to say people just do stuff and it’s generally worked out. I handled Friday movie nominations and the required piracy for a while, before i had to touch grass. Looking to resume that somewhat shortly but getting back to topic;
The hexbear cytube is over-watched by the site dev team in terms of tech stuff, but individual channels are run by their own mod teams. There’s not really a council or anything like that to decide which channels are “official”.
You should be good just registering a sports channel. It’ll set you up as admin for that channel and you can start queueing vids. It’s fairly painless to get one set-up, and sitemods are almost always willing to pin or feature a post close to showtime. Im willing to bet if you get a regular viewing schedule set up for a bit they’ll get it listed on the front channel list and start mentioning it in the mega."
-@Zoift in a PM to me
I'll get the channel up and running tomorrow. Probably just gonna start with whichever MLB afternoon game. PM me if you want to also be a channel admin!
SECOND UPDATE: Based on the limitations of Cytube (the web program that Hextube is forked from), it looks like I won't be able to make this whole thing work like I had planned, i.e. using embedding to send feeds from various sports streaming sites to Hextube. If anyone is more-code savvy than me and can host a server for the channel, I'd be interested in helping out, but given my current capabilities, I am personally at a loss for how to proceed and this appears to be dead in the water, lmao.
Ok cool, thank you. I'll be in touch regarding emotes, queue settings, and CSS after the stream embedding issue gets fixed
Stream embedding is one of the biggest PITA with cytube. Only a few sites are supported. There should be a list on the cytube faq GitHub
Yep. From the list I saw on GitHub it's only made to work (un-modded) with YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Soundcloud, Streamable, Livestream. com, Twitch, UStream (possibly broken, per the FAQ), Smashcast, and Mixer
