SLTV - Multimidia Streaming Tool
SLTV is an audio and video streamer that receives streams from several sources (V4L2, Firewire, ALSA, Pulseaudio, files...) and sends a stream using Icecast or to files (Vorbis+Theora). It has a graphical interface that shows preview and allows applying dynamic effects and configuring stream.
SLTV is developed in Python, GStreamer and GTK+, and is licensed as GPLv2.0 or later.
