Hi All,

Last Friday and Saturday Nick and I had our own workshop around the 
set-up and subsequent streaming of some of the talks at HL.

We've amended the page at 
https://hacktionlab.org/index.php?title=HacktionLab_Sheffield_2023_Streaming_Set-up 
to cover the changes we made and the final equipment we used for it.

Our general conclusion was that live streaming wasn't really suitable 
for an event like HacktionLab being that it's very 'in person'.  
However, what we learned can be used for a talk similar to the Karrot 
one Nick did with Vasilis where we have speakers who are both in the 
room and remote.   The Big Blue Button software was easy to use and 
performed very well.

The format would work well for an 'all-remote' event where everyone, 
whether in the room or not, were on laptops.  So if we ever do a proper 
hacklab, then this is our pigeon!

Cheers,


Mike.
