Show HN: A local multilistener realtime radio station based on YouTube

Post by FedericoElles » Thu, Jun 09, 2011, 5:00 PM UTC

I'm working on this since months during some spare work time at my company and before knowing about turntable.fm. Maybe some office worker here have the same niche problem as we did and find this useful. Feedback highly appreciated.

How is the bandwidth use, do the clients only get the audio or the video as well? I'd like a single-user version of this that works with keyboard media hotkeys, possible?

No, clients are only remotes. There are already (much better) single-user YouTube playlist webapps. Bandwidth: YouTube Steam + some Ajax and Google Chat running in the background of Client and Server.
