A question for anybody who knows: Is it possible to configure the server to serve an encrypted stream? I can't directly embed my locus stream on my website after I set up my webserver to force https connections. (This avoids "mixed content" warnings from browsers.) Has anybody else done this?
Also, I have lots of experience with solar powered streaming, but in my case I'm cheating: I have a building about 100 meters away, so I use a hacked 5.8gHz AV transmitter and directional antennas to bridge the gap. There's a locus sonus Raspberry Pi streambox inside to handle the rest. I imagine that a mobile wifi bridge "mobile hotspot" and Pi streambox would work for truly remote setups, but power consumption is high and the bandwidth costs for the mobile SIM would need to be managed by scheduling the stream for certain hours each day. It's a mountain that I haven't needed to climb but I'm very intrigued!
Take care - ZachRECENT WORK:
Pond Station is a modular platform for monitoring the hidden activity of a freshwater pond at Wave Farm in Acra, NY. It floats on the water’s surface, broadcasting underwater sounds through a live radio link from dawn to evening every day (using solar-charged internal batteries).
