The receiver

Bonding sends your stream over every connection at once. Something with a fixed public address has to put it back together and pass it on to Twitch, YouTube, Kick or anywhere else. That's the receiver: one ready-built Docker container, StreamHelpers-Receiver, holding the SRTLA bonding receiver, datarhei Restreamer for publishing, a backup-video controller for when the bond drops, and Tailscale so the dashboard can reach its controls privately. It installs with one command, on a rented server or a machine you already own:

wget -qO- https://streamhelpers.com/receiver | sh

It asks nothing, then prints the address of its own settings page. Add a Tailscale key there, copy the IRLCFG- pairing code it shows, and paste that into the dashboard's Set up your stream wizard. Open UDP 25554 to the machine and you are done. Older dashboards and notes show the longer /irl-dashboard/receiver/install.sh address; it is the same installer.
