How did I live stream grilling a steak from my phone yesterday? I'm glad you asked!

First, you need a live video streaming app on your phone. I used Larix Broadcaster. It's available for both Android and iOS.

https://softvelum.com/larix/

Next, I visited https://zap.stream/settings/stream from Kiwi browser and signed in with my Nostr Connect browser extension. Once signed in, I configured my stream settings and paid the Lightning invoice to allow me to stream. I paid 1K sats and chose to use the best quality.

Then, I opened Larix and went into settings to add a new connection. I added a zap.stream connection with the stream URL and stream key that I obtained above.

Finally, I edited my stream name from my https://zap.stream/dashboard and tapped the camera shutter button on Larix.

Boom. Zap.stream live streaming from mobile.

The only real issue is being unable to view comments on mobile. You need a second device to do that. Though, I wonder if I could have split screened it? Probably. It would have been very small though.

Good luck!


is this working with chrome as well ? also what is the extension you using on mobile ? thanks for sharing i was about to checking how to run stream on mobile


Why the hustle? Why we don’t built in the app? nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg


You need a mobile browser with a nostr signing extension that has your key. On Android Kiwi is a convenient choice, on iOS safari + Nostore extension ist the only option afaik.


i was tryin with chrome earlier but alby didnt work there .. now i install kiwi and see there is extension field but not sure which extension to use


This is great! Thanks nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 !

We need more guides like this.!


You can sign in with your nsec with Chrome, but I wouldn't recommend doing that. Firefox and Kiwi can use extensions on mobile to allow you to keep your key safe.


Nostr Connect is what I use and what I mentioned above. You can use others too, I just prefer Nostr Connect.


yeah i know , i dont wants to use the nsec... just cant find the extension .. what is the name of extension and how to find for download (for android)


okey i got it just cant find it ... where i can download


thanks alot


What's another guide that you'd like to see?


i set up and make two tests for stream mobile . on secondone got some cutt off in some moments . are you change some settings in Larix ? Also the issue with the commeds you can add the chat widget from zapstream like overlay to the Larix and its working but in some moment stuck when we type many commends


I didn't change any settings in Larix. I'm using all defaults.


make another test half hour ago change just the bitrate from 2000 to 6000 and some changes on widgets.. Stops to shows me the zaps from zapstream but from nostrudel shows what is weird ... Gonna make few more tests but working good at all.


Sorry for the delay!

I just say your pheonixd guide as well!  Great stuff.

Maybe a simple guide to back up your nostr data to your computer if you are not running your one relay.

Thanks again for your hard work in this space!


sure. that's a good one too. thank you.


You’re all over it 🤙


this sounds so easy!


It's not too bad.


:Clap:


:sunglasses:


Facebook has a really good live stream back in the day

Deleted FB years ago tho


nostr:npub1n47jznzclhr8kzyyv6dtl4cqeltuzuajngx93m3flw2sdw9kfmaqjh8w74 this should work


This is a half assed guide I made to stream from mobile, but I also believe that nostr:nprofile1qqsxua0hju3e0j3jjhs0fjs0h3htnnreh6zm4lw4d0fhsgsv4rhwwnspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz73zyaux has guides for desktop. I also would be willing to hop on a call if you need it, Ken. Lemme know.
