Hey guys.. i want to stream online some recorded files directly to youtube (no i dont want to upload it)
i'm having trouble to do it in a vps that have i7 but dont have a GPU so it give a high video lag.
Is there any good alternative to do it? or only purchase a dedicated server?
My local pc have a gpu but the upload s***s so its almost impossible

You don't need a GPU to stream any file. if you want to stream it via rtmp from a server, you can simply use ffmpeg. And this can be done from a vps, and from a low spec one if there is not involved a transcoding.
You can live stream to vk and embed it to your site, it'll use no bandwidth at all, and quality will be great!
He probably wants to setup an automagical stream for Family Guy/etc which gets plenty of traffic and subscriptions, and he can throw his own paid-for links in. At least, I assume so. What the hell else does anyone stream from a queue?
i never used this ffmpeg but i assume this must be similar to obs studio. do you tried to stream a movie or a cartoon? its almost impossible
yea you are right but isnt family guy, so can you recommend me something? hehe
Most those streams come from paper space I believe, or AWS GPU nodes.
i liked this prices from paper space, have a big big difference from AWS GPU lol
I have tested the lowest 512GPU one, and it had a driver issue with obs. So keep that in mind.
prepare your files in your computer so you can upload it in a low spec vps and stream using ffmpeg without transcoding again.
