Most people following accounts on the Fediverse's video and audio platform PeerTube are actually on different Fediverse platforms like Mastodon etc. They will see your uploads in their Home timelines on Mastodon etc, in chronological order mixed in with all the non-PeerTube posts.

If you're a publisher on PeerTube, it's probably a good idea to avoid massive batch uploads, so you're not suddenly flooding your followers' timelines with videos/episodes.

If you publish videos on PeerTube, it lets you organise them in two ways: your account and your channels.

An account shows everything that the person has uploaded all in one place. Channels are sub-divisions of the account, and show only some of the account's videos.

For example, the account @mrfunkedude has its videos subdivided into a cooking channel @baking, a short video channel @mrfunkedude_sfv and a philosophy channel @mrfunkedudes_place

HOWEVER... there's a catch 😮

On most Fediverse servers outside PeerTube the videos will appear to all come from the same account rather than any channels. The channels can be followed, but the videos will only show the account's name, not the channel's.

If you are using PeerTube channels to organise your videos, bear this in mind.

If you need to keep PeerTube videos completely separate, it may be better to use separate PeerTube accounts rather than relying on channels.

If you're watching a PeerTube video, you can access subtitles (if it has any) by clicking the cog ⚙️ icon and selecting "subtitles/cc", then the language you want.

For example, this video has subtitles in 12 different languages:

https://tilvids.com/w/hRzMpJwSkqEK3ZTNPbSuqu

You may need to press play to get the cog icon to appear.

Subtitles are normally done manually and added as files by the person uploading the video.

PeerTube admins may also want to try an unofficial transcription plugin which adds automatically generated subtitles. More info about the plugin at:

https://gitlab.com/apps_education/peertube/plugin-transcription

(I am not sure what the status of the plugin is though... Does anyone know if it is still being maintained?)

If you're posting a video on PeerTube, it's a good idea to use single word or CamelCase tags.

These kinds of tags will be visible not just to PeerTube servers, but Mastodon and other Fediverse servers too. This will make it much easier for people elsewhere on the Fediverse to find your video.

If you use tags that have spaces in them, these tags will not be noticed by Mastodon, so the video will be harder to find.

As you might have noticed, PeerTube has a plugin for chatting during livestreams (screenshot below). It's really nice!

If you do livestreaming on PeerTube, ask your server admin if the plugin can be added, it makes livestreams a lot more fun. There is more info about the plugin at https://github.com/JohnXLivingston/peertube-plugin-livechat

The creator of the plugin is @John_Livingston and they have a roadmap of more features they want to add to the plugin. You can help make this happen by donating to Livingston's LiberaPay account at https://liberapay.com/JohnLivingston

Have you noticed the likes on PeerTube videos disappearing?

A bug has appeared which causes likes from Mastodon on PeerTube videos appear but then disappear a while later.

If you want to know the technical details of what's going on, here's a discussion about the bug between PeerTube and Mastodon developers:

https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/13571

Hopefully this will be resolved thanks to a workaround in the next update of PeerTube 🤞

The PeerTube instance https://tilvids.com has some of the best videos on the Fediverse, but at the end of last year a freak software bug in PeerTube broke a lot (maybe most?) of its follows from Mastodon etc.

However, the bug has been fixed in the latest version of PeerTube! 🥳

Unfortunately, the existing broken follows are still broken and need to be fixed manually.

To fix these broken follows, all current followers should unfollow Tilvids accounts, wait a short while and then refollow them. (NOTE: This needs to be done even if it looks like the follows are already working ok. Follows that are broken due to this bug don't look broken 😔 ).

New followers don't need to do anything special, totally new follows made after the bug was fixed should work fine first time.

There's a new version of @peertube out today! 🥳

You can find out more at https://joinpeertube.org/en_US/news#release-4.1

I'm posting to clarify one thing from PeerTube's slightly ambiguously worded announcement...

No, they are not getting rid of peer-to-peer (p2p)! What they are doing is allowing instance admins and end users to switch p2p on or off by default.

P2P allows very small servers to host videos watched by very large numbers of people. Instead of everyone downloading the video from the server, they share it amongst themselves, which spreads the load significantly.

However, because of how p2p works, in theory you might be able to see the IP address of someone else who is simultaneously watching the same video with p2p on.

But if you remove p2p, small independent instances would no longer be able to serve popular videos, because they would not have the needed bandwidth.

As neither option is perfect, PeerTube are offering both options to all users and admins.

Jeśli tworzysz oryginalną treść wideo 🎞️ i chcesz opublikować ją na Fediverse, to warto skontaktować się z administratorami tych instancji i zapytać, czy mieliby dla Ciebie miejsce na serwerze :

https://spectra.video
https://diode.zone
https://share.tube
https://tube.tchncs.de
https://tilvids.com
https://video-cave-v2.de (po niemiecku)

Albo możesz założyć swoją instancję PeerTube. Najłatwiej można to zrobić, kupując usługę hostingową tu: https://federation.spacebear.ee/software/peertube
lub tu: https://cloud68.co/instances/peertube

Oczywiście można wystawić też swój własny serwer PeerTube, ale to już trochę trudniejsze.

If you make original video content and want to put it on the Fediverse, you could try contacting the admins (via the About page) of these instances to see if they have space for you:

https://spectra.video
https://diode.zone
https://share.tube
https://tube.tchncs.de
https://tilvids.com
https://video-cave-v2.de (in German)

Alternatively, you could set up your own PeerTube instance. The easiest way to do this is through a managed hosting service such as:

https://federation.spacebear.ee/software/peertube

or

https://cloud68.co/instances/peertube

PeerTube is a free open federated alternative to YouTube, and part of the Fediverse

There's an official video about how PeerTube works here:

https://tilvids.com/videos/watch/7fc92b1e-597f-4f62-8017-4471095bf827

As it's part of the Fediverse, you can follow PeerTube accounts from Mastodon (PeerTube videos look like Mastodon posts when viewed through Mastodon).

You can see lots of recommended PeerTube videos and accounts by following @FediVideos

If you're posting a video on PeerTube, it's a good idea to give it lots of relevant tags.

Tags on PeerTube are interpreted by Mastodon etc as hashtags, and people will be able to find your video more easily.

However, be aware that tags with spaces in them are ignored by Mastodon etc, even though PeerTube allows them.

To make sure people can find your video, only use tags without spaces. For multiple words, use CamelCase.
