Hello 3Speak Community Members
In today’s video, I am going to show you how to start self-hosting your videos & keep it decentralised & immutable.
UI Changes indicating IPFS
- Let’s take a look at the latest mobile app of 3Speak.
- As you scroll through the videos, you’ll notice this green cube icon
- Those videos which have this Icon, indicates that those videos are Decentralised.
- Others are considered a regular videos - stored on centralised storage space called wasabi buckets.
How to upload decentralised video?
- So, you might be wondering, how do I upload my video as decentralised video.
- Answer is simple - start using mobile app.
- Any video uploaded by mobile application is decentralised in nature by default.
- Also, if you’re a beta user of a 3speak, your video is also uploaded as a decentralised video.
What’s IPFS?
- IPFS works on a hashing system.
- Each file has a unique Hash.
- I’ve added a link in the post to help you understand more about IPFS.
- https://ipfs.tech
- I also recommend you to do your research.
How to Self-host?
- So, as a user, all you have to do is tap on the video & check out video info.
- There you’ll see this icon again. Tap on it, it will open share-sheet.
- Using that share sheet, share it to yourself or your community members
- Ask them to pin it on your system.
Step by Step, please.
- Open mobile app
- Select the decentralised video
- Copy the IPFS HASH
- Share it to yourself or your Community
- Launch IPFS Desktop app or use brave browser
- Switch to files
- Add a pin & paste IPFS Hash, provide name
- Wait for some time based on size of the video.
- Congrats. You’ve just pinned a video.
This video is now IMMUTABLE as long as all the pins are not deleted.
Start uploading from mobile to upload your video as immutable videos.
How do I play self-hosted video from my system?
- In near future, I am also going to add feature
- With this feature, you can play the videos which are self-hosted.
- So, instead of playing IPFS videos from CDN of 3Speak, you can also play the video, from your system or others system.
