IRLEncoder is a Linux image you flash onto a single-board computer (SBC). Once flashed, the board becomes an IRL streaming encoder. Plug in modems, ethernet, WiFi, a camera, and a power source, open the web UI, and stream.

2. An SD card or NVMe drive, 16 GB or larger.
3. At least one network link (ethernet, cellular modem, USB tether, or WiFi).
4. A camera with HDMI output, a USB Video Class (UVC) camera, or a supported DJI camera.
5. A power source. A USB-C PD power bank works.

Quick start

1. Download the image.
2. Flash it using BalenaEtcher or Rufus.
3. Boot the board.
4. Open http://irl.local and copy the first-time password from the onboarding page.
