Pro-tips for new viewers

Change chat name

When you visit an Owncast channel for the first time then you've been given a random chat name. You see this name on the top right above the chat box. Click on that name in order to pick your own preferred chat name.

Chat formatting

The chat supports some basic Markdown, like *Italic*, **Bold** and `Code blocks` (from the Owncast docs)

Player shortcuts

The web video player has some keyboard shortcuts for you to use:

  • Play/Pause - Spacebar
  • Volume up - 0
  • Volume down - 9
  • Mute - m
  • Toggle fullscreen - f
  • Toggle chat - c

(from the Owncast docs)

Watch Owncast via IPTV

If you have a tv platform/set top box (apple, amazon, roku) that you can install IPTV apps on then you can add the url https://directory.owncast.online/api/iptv to watch this and other Owncast channels on the big screen.

Watch the stream in a media player

The stream is using HLS standard, so you can use your favorite media player to watch the stream using the url https://live.hatnix.net/hls/stream.m3u8

Joining chat-only

In case you want to join only the chat (because you're watching via IPTV?) you can do that using this url: https://live.hatnix.net/embed/chat/readwrite


About me and this channel

My name is hatniX (or Frank), born in the year 1973. I'm a PC gamer for over 30 years now, playing games on Linux since 1998. And this is what you'll see here on this channel, me playing games on Linux. Preferable with a focus on storytelling and atmosphere, rather than "pro-gaming".

Fediverse

You can follow me in the Fediverse: @hatnix@social.tchncs.de, in order to get an announcement when the stream starts.

Owncast

This server is powered by Owncast. If you have an account with any Fediverse network, then you can follow this server and get notifications when I go online. Check out the Owncast-Browser-Extension for Firefox or for Chrome browsers to see whether I'm live.

Chat bot

I'm using an experimantal chat bot here, which I have written specifically for Owncast. Use !help in chat to get a list of the available commands. The source code of the bot is available at codeberg.org/hatniX/hatbot (Public Domain).
