OK, this is a seed of an idea, to look at ways to connect BeeKeeper with a Livepeer Orchestrator.

Livepeer Orchestrator

Livepeer Orchestrator receive linearly-streaming video content, usually live, and balances it across a cluster of Livepeer Transcoders. It uses https://github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer in -orchestrator mode.

They are sometimes called Video Miners.

Transcoding

In this context, transcoding is considered to be something like "receiving video content in 1080p and re-sizing it into 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p and 144p.

Continuous Streaming

Livepeer Transcoders currently aim to receive, and transcode the content in sub-real time, and serve it back to their customer (a Livepeer Broadcaster) in sub-real-time.

This enables an uninterrupted flow of video which is crucial for live-streaming content.

Motivation

My motivation for this is to find the right way to coordinate:

  1. linearly-streaming video content being transcoded (e.g. from 1080p to 144p for improved accessibility), with

  2. linearly-streaming content being stored

Almost forgot to mention: Livepeer and Swarm both operate on EVMs, so things ought to be easy to integrate at a root infrastructure level :)
