I think both the Osmo Action and the Osmo Pocket would be great cameras for IRL Streaming but right now lack major features for same.
In order to shine in this field, these would need to be improved in the following ways:
- SRT streaming (in addition to RTMP streaming) to allow for H.265 (HEVC) streaming at roughly half the needed bitrate for same quality as H.264 in combination with streaming servers like the IRL Endpoint Server by streamingserver.io. This would also make the connection more resilient as SRT is the far superior protocol, especially for mobile streams.
- Better reconnect logic: Right now once the network connection drops, you will have to manually restart the stream and sometimes even need to start the app again. Why not have a "continuous retry@ mode where the connection settings are saved and the system will try to reconnect to the previously used WiFi hotspot and establish the stream connection again and again until manually stopped?
This would make the life of an IRL Streamer much easier and would help people who do not want to use an additional encoder (which is not possible without HDMI out).
I think this would be a quite easy addition to the software that would allow these product lines to be viable for a growing market.
