Did you know your Commodore 64 Ultimate is a networking beast? In this video, we go beyond just loading games and dive into the powerful network capabilities hidden in your device.
I’ll walk you through everything you need to know to get your C64 on your network; from setting up a static IP to controlling your machine via a web browser. I’ll also show you the "killer app" for content creators: streaming audio and video directly from your C64 to OBS Studio over your LAN—no expensive capture card required!
In this video:
✅ Basic Setup: Configuring Hostnames, Timezones, and WiFi.
✅ Static IP: Why you need one and how to reserve it in your router.
✅ FTP Access: Moving files to and from your C64 using Directory Opus (or FileZilla).
✅ Web Control: Using the browser interface to play SIDs, reboot the machine, and inject BASIC code remotely.
👀 OBS Streaming: Installing the plugin and streaming pixel-perfect video over Ethernet.
✅ Going Online: Using CommoServe and hitting the BBS scene with Ultimate Term.
