Could you build this?
Partial Creating a web UI mimicking a 24/7 video stream is straightforward, but maintaining an uninterrupted automated 24/7 video generation and streaming pipeline requires dedicated media servers and streaming infrastructure.
What it would actually take: A full version requires an automated media pipeline (using FFmpeg and HLS/RTMP streaming servers like SRS or AWS MediaLive) fed by automated video/script generation models. Orchestration requires cron-based rendering queues and CDN delivery optimized for low-latency live video streaming. The core difficulty lies in operating cost-effective, uninterrupted real-time video encoding and delivery rather than the frontend player.
