Looking for a program where I can livestream / share my screen in close to real time (like discord)
I had great luck with setting up OvenMediaEngine with a custom OvenLiveKit player HTML. I stream to the server via RTMP and it publishes the stream over WebRTC. In the best case I got around 1 second latency, since there's a bit of overhead while converting audio channels (WebRTC only supports Opus, OBS only supports AAC (I think)). Also you can't use B-Frames, so you need to pay attention to that in OBS.

Ask HN: FFmpeg real-time desktop streaming
OME [1] is a RTMP server for sub-second WebRTP streaming. Profiles allow for specific encodes if needed. I have a repository hosting an exemplary configuration and a frontend using their player [2].
Another server is SRS [3], but IMO it is more difficult to use, lacks features and the delay is about 1-3s — it requires far less bandwidth though.

Looking for self hosted screen sharing/streaming solution
My solution is cobbled together from OvenMediaEngine and OvenPlayer, which gives me about 250ms of latency when streaming. I have the whole thing behind a reverse proxy that uses Discord for forward auth, and then I have a list of discord user names that are allowed in. Streaming is controlled by a normal stream key rather than OAuth. It's very "batteries not included" though.

[Use Case] The third use case of OvenMediaEngine: IoTcube Conference 2021 ( Sep 9, 2021)
The conference organizer's requirements could be solved very simply with OvenMediaEngine (OME). They wanted to stream with sub-second latency because of smooth communication between presenters and attendees during live streaming. We applied OME as the stream server and OvenPlayer as the player to support a successful conference. That’s it.

Sub-second webRTC streaming server and player
Failed trying to play OvenMediaEngine's WebRTC? (Of course it fails with VLC, because VLC does not support WebRTC) Easy to play with OvenPlayer by just following the Getting-started documentation. https://airensoft.gitbook.io/ovenmediaengine/getting-started The forum is also very active as shown below. https://github.com/AirenSoft/OvenMediaEngine/issues

Question about self-hosting OvenMediaEngine on my local network with Docker? Docker = Confusing
Hello! I am trying to self-host an OvenMediaEngine server with Docker and I'm quite stuck. I haven't used Docker before and it's very confusing to me. So far I've ran the second Docker command from https://github.com/AirenSoft/OvenMediaEngine because I would like to later change some of the config files in the future. I think the server itself is up and running because when I send an RTMP stream to the server, OBS shows that it's connected and data is being sent to it. I've opened up the ports on my network and the firewall of the second computer I am hosting this server from and I'm using a second computer for the OBS stream.

Sounds like you could use https://sonobus.net/ and possibly https://vdo.ninja/ but you might have that already covered with jitsi.

Android 14 adds support for using your smartphone as a webcam
Quite tangential, but during lockdown I was looking for a way to use my iPhone as a webcam and came across this project:
It started out as being a means to send a video feed into OBS[1], which is how I rigged the webcam input, but as the project grew, it expanded to being a way for me to spin up desktop video and audio sharing in a browser, sorta like Zoom, etc. This let me run virtual movie nights with people remotely.
Whilst it's possible to use it via the 'create a room' interface, you can also do it all via URL parameters which I found much more flexible and robust. See here[2].
You create source and recipient URLs and then it just automagically makes it all work via WebRTC. I was able to for example make a source that captured my VLC window and sent out the video and audio, and then two destination URLs which received the source video and audio, but also sent their own audio to one another. This meant we could hear the and watch a movie but also talk to each other via our microphones.
I've got no relation to this project besides thinking it's really awesome.

[LFG] Looking for older amateur/beginners in Europe for stoner rock
Our collaboration software might look something like Sonobus and vdo.ninja for live jamming (if we're close enough), Discord or Whatsapp for chatting, maybe Area for reviewing mix-downs, and Bandlab for stem-sharing (Reaper too, if you've got it). I'm open to all suggestions. I'm also interested in learning how to use something like Sonic Sound Picture to do visualisations, or maybe creating AI generated animations, if deciding to upload anything to YT.

I need help.
If you’re looking to use it as a camera, I’d recommend this app. I’ve used it myself and it’s the best option for iOS camera to obs. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shoot-pro-webcam-telestrator/id964565026 . It’s paid, but a one time fee, and you can test it for free with a watermark. The best free option is https://vdo.ninja, but I strongly prefer the quality upgrade and features of shoot pro. If you have an Apple Watch you can also control shoot pro from there while using your phone as a camera.

What is the best way to remotely stream other people on YouTube when we are in separate cities?
Hi there. Personally I would give https://vdo.ninja/ a go. It's right up your alley. It's a direct WebRTC feed of your guest camera and mic thst you can bring straight into obs. I use it ever day.
I have never tried this but there is some guy that has created a bunch of tools for this purpose. I'm unsure if this is the most optimal way to do this but here is the link vdo.ninja. You can send webcams remotely to obs with his tools and much more, hope it helps!
