"Although, in theory, it's possible to have P2P live streaming, there isn't yet a complete implementation. Why not start one yourself and share it?" |

I'm thinking if it is possible to use only bittorrent-dht for peer discovery and then use a normal WebRTC communication for P2P live streaming. Any of you folks have any idea if this can be achieved? |

p2p live streaming is not only "possible", its already exist, it starts 2 years ago from bem.tv (https://github.com/streamroot/bemtv) and moved to streamroot, since it become commercial service there are no github development. Two other commercial service is peer5 and viblast. if anyone looking for start, https://github.com/streamroot/clappr-p2phls-plugin |

@BenjaminLawson Wow, they are doing it. I wonder how they stick the video pieces into one stream? |
People often ask whether it's possible to do live streaming with webtorrent.
I think it would be useful to add some info about that in the faq.
