I am not 100% happy with the costs as this client is hard to bill. Hence I am here looking for a comparable alternative that could still satisfy the end user’s experience.

Videos in a storage bucket on a CDN for example, would reduce the costs? Looking for ideas of comparable approaches

If you can transcode your videos to HLS offplatform, then you could store and serve using CF's #r2 service which has an S3-compatible API

1984 Ford Laser•11/25/24, 8:44 PM

R2 doesn't charge at all for ingress or egress, just $0.05 per GB

Isaac McFadyen•11/25/24, 8:44 PM

request costs which are quite reasonable

Isaac McFadyen•11/25/24, 8:44 PM

They'd be non-zero especially for HLS, since they're smaller chunks

Isaac McFadyen•11/25/24, 8:44 PM

Still cheaper overall than Stream though.

I just had a look at that site and I find it hilarious that you get 60k monthly mins on it

if you are only serving the single video, R2 will be fine

Ability to add Chapters to a stream?
#EXT-X-SESSION-DATA:DATA-ID=“com.apple.hls.chapters”,LANGUAGE="en",URI=[URL]

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 12:30 AM

Might need to modify m3u8 yourself, Stream doesn't allow direct modify of the manifest. Might be better with a compositing service like Medialive

Restrict access to certain users by requiring a signed URL token to watch the live stream.

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 12:40 AM

w/e that means its not written how to do it

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 12:42 AM

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 1:08 AM

I guess paying for a service must have some place to submit a ticket?

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 1:08 AM

Cause they obviously don't really engage here

DDjmakulit I guess paying for a service must have some place to submit a ticket?

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:32 AM

yes, there absolutely is a ticketing system. The Discord is more a community effort, any employees in here mostly are here on their own time. You can also pay for a support plan as well, if you truly need depp level of help

Also I just tried this feature, adding mydomain.com.aumydomain.com.au and nothing else into the Allowed Domains box, adn then copied the embed code from the Embed tab, and I was successfully able to block it on other sites. Have you been hitting save after entering your domain?

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:34 AM

Yes i have hitting save embed code does not change

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:35 AM

Yes the code itself won't change at all, not sure what your issue is

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:35 AM

Maybe you should try on yours too see my troubles lol

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:35 AM

With your embed code?

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:35 AM

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:36 AM

Yes thats from a live stream channel

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:41 AM

Not a video

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:42 AM

Its a different video entirely

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:42 AM

exactly

Djmakulit•11/26/24, 2:42 AM

its for my live

1984 Ford Laser•11/26/24, 2:42 AM

But you asked about the VOD origins. You can't restrict the lives directly

<div style="position: relative; padding-top: 56.25%;"> <iframe src="https://customer-56wb2l7vl092hwls.cloudflarestream.com/d798c5781c5dc6dc653457ad54bcc387/iframe" style="border: none; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; height: 100%; width: 100%;" allow="accelerometer; gyroscope; autoplay; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture;" allowfullscreen="true" ></iframe> </div>
