I've been trying to figure out a related sort of video streaming setup for work (without Owncast, but with a similar sort of 24/7 goal plus other considerations) and have been looking into using ffmpeg's capabilities to output either HLS or DASH segments + manifests. (FFMPEG can do both but I don't know which would be better for my needs yet.) The sources I'm working with are RTSP/RTP instead of RTMP and I only need streaming to browser clients currently -- although it working with VLC naturally by pointing it to the manifest is nice.

HLS and DASH work by having videos split into small chunks that can be downloaded over HTTP, so just replacing the manifest allows for continuous streaming (the client pulls it repeatedly) without the server needing to maintain a continuous connection to the client.(Fan out to CDNs works naturally since the video chunks are just files that can be served by any web server.)

It should be possible to do some creative things by either creating / modifying the manifests myself with scripting or by piping chunks into another instance of ffmpeg from a script. (I've done something similar using -f image2pipe in the past, but that was for cases where I need to do things like create a video from an image gallery dynamically.) That's as far as I've gotten with it myself though.

I don't know what the right answer is either, but I'm also interested in finding out and hopeful you get additional responses.

I see. I can reproduce the issue with the CSS you provided. Unfortunately, I think this is just an issue with how image maps are designed in HTML and didn't realize it before since I generally don't use them.

I did some searching and found other people who ran into similar issues. Most of them (who got to a solution) seemed to workaround it by using JS to recompute the coordinates as needed -- e.g. using https://github.com/jamietre/ImageMapster or other libraries.

I think you could also accomplish it with an SVG. (e.g. this result came up in a search)

Not sure how you're getting things desynchronized. If I just put an img on a page and transform it with CSS (e.g. img { transform: rotate(90deg) scale(50%); }) as a quick test, the areas on a map I associated with it correctly correspond to the rotated and scaled areas displayed. The pixels I used in the map are from the coordinate system of the image -- not absolute coordinates on the page.

I went back through Wikipedia's current events from June 2025 and put together a rough timeline:

• 2025-06-12: IAEA declares Iran in breach of its nuclear non-proliferation obligations.
• 2025-06-13: Israel attacks Iran targeting nuclear facilities and senior government officials. Iran retaliates with missles and drones.
• 2025-06-17: Donald Trump calls for Iran's unconditional surrender. Iran refuses.
• 2025-06-22: The US announces it has bombed multiple nuclear facilities in Iran -- particularly including sites at Fordow and Natanz which are deep underground -- using its unusual ~30000 pound (~12000 kg) Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs. Iran retaliates by firing missles at a US base in Qatar and by voting to close the Strait of Hormuz.
• 2025-06-24: The US and Qatar mediate a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. Donald Trump says Israel and Iran "don't know what the fuck they are doing" as the countries continue fighting initially. It seems to be holding so far after a rocky start though?

I'm not sure how to do what you want with customizing Mint directly, but a possibly simpler alternative solution is to just send two clearly distinguishable USB drives (e.g. label them "1" and "2" with a label maker or get two drives with very different colors) and tell him to install (unmodified) Mint from the first and then have him run a program you provide on the second after that's done to make the other changes.

I have an older version of TrueNAS on it from when it was still FreeBSD based (instead of Linux). I might replace it with Scale whenever I get around to doing maintenance on it next -- or maybe just go to stock Debian or something since I don't use most of the bells-and-whistles.

I run my NAS that way too. I just mount it and play videos with VLC if I want to watch something I have on it. The main reason I have a NAS is because I ran out of drive bays in my main system a few years ago... Works fine for my needs currently; no need to make it more complicated.
