+# Bash TV
+
+A simple RTMP streaming TV station in Bash.
+
+### Dependencies
+
+* Bash
+* ffmpeg
+* sqlite3
+
+### Scripts
+
+#### tv.sh
+
+This script runs the TV station by looping over a collection of files in a directory and playing them randomly until they have all been played one time.
+
+
+#### encode.sh
+
+This script can be run on a cronjob to detect new video files and re-encode them for playback in the tv station.
+
+
+#### .env
+
+This configuration file contains the environment variables that are used by the other scripts to operate the streaming station.
+
+#### common.sh
+
+Script containing common helper functions and environment configuration scripts used between the `tv.sh` and `encode.sh` scripts.
