PRO panel, account for tests: test@fastocloud.com 111111
But... what is it? That page, and your homepage at https://fastocloud.com/ lists all kinds of technical features, but nowhere does it tell me what this is and why might I want it?
Video management service, used for IPTV, CCTV, for bloggers, for all who working with video. Own youtube for example.
Is this an open core offering, or something 100% FOSS? Seeing a "pro admin panel" screenshot made me a bit confused. You may want to make that very clear.
We have 2 versions, paid and free on GitHub you can find the free version, with organizations we work with PRO version, it's paid, not all code is opensource.
Thank you for the answer. You might want to make that even clearer in the documentation of the FOSS project.
Also several of the features listed appear, let's say, sketchy: * Restream/Transcode from online streaming services like YouTube, Twitch * YouTube remove AD * Livepeer mining crypto
It appears to be a backend primarily for illegal iptv services. Which probably can be used for legal stuff also, but the feature set is all there for stream proxying.

Can you explain how you arrive at this conclusion please?

Livepeer mining crypto

^- sounds.. uh.. ethical :)

IMO as ethical as ads, it just shouldn't run on mobile and laptops not connected to power. Otherwise I'm happy to run cryptominer from YOUR domain as long as I'm browsing your domain.
Well, if all of the involved are aware what's going on it is of course a more direct way of paying back than ads...
I created a game where that was the monetization strategy. You accumulated dynamites in the game by doing PoW with your browser. It also worked as a bot fighting technique since it was a multiplayer game.

The income was abysmal and it never felt quite right, even though I clearly prompted the user that I would use their CPU when they clicked "Mine". Since Coinhive shut down the game no longer works but here's an article about it: https://btcmanager.com/tombs-io-launches-collaborative-onlin...

No documentation of docker images. Not going to be easy to start with.
I found the docker images, but it doesn't explain anywhere how to deploy them:

* installation instructions for each of the images

* mountable persistent path/volume for transport and backup

* what ports do I export?

* how do the images interact? Do I need one of them or 3?

* do I need to write any config file and mount it in docker before starting?

* what features flags are available to use with environment variables?

What is `fastocloud_load_balance`? Do I need it for basic deployment with 2 cameras?

Look at installation instructions of these two https://hub.docker.com/_/traefik https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres
