Windows Install

​

Download and unzip the Livepeer binary

https://github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer/releases/download/<RELEASE_VERSION>/livepeer-windows-amd64.zip

​

Create a bat file to launch Livepeer.

Use the following as a template, adding your personal info and save a .bat file in the same directory as the Livepeer executable.

livepeer.exe -network=arbitrum-one-mainnet -ethUrl=<YOUR ARB RPC> -cliAddr=127.0.0.1:5935 -serviceAddr=<YOUR GATEWAY PUBLIC IP ADDRESS>:8935 -broadcaster -maxPricePerUnit=300 -pricePerUnit=1 -monitor=true -v=6 -rtmpAddr=0.0.0.0:1935 -httpAddr=0.0.0.0:8935 -blockPollingInterval=20

PAUSE

​

Start the Livepeer Gateway

Start the Livepeer Gateway using the .bat file.

When prompted enter and confirm a password.

After confirming your password close the terminal.

​

Create a file containing your Gateway Ethereum password

In C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\.lpData create a txt file named ethsecret.txt with the password you created in the previous step.

​

Add the -ethPassword flag to your .bat file

Add -ethPassword=C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\.lpData\ethsecret.txt to the previously created .bat file

If you’d like the Gateway to start with Windows you can create a System service using NSSM or the Windows Task Scheduler.

Open the Livepeer CLI, then Jump to Configure Transcoding Options to finish configuring the Gateway

livepeer_cli.exe -host 127.0.0.1 -http 5935
