    You can try using Electron Capture (https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture) to visit https://vdo.ninja/ with, and capture/send video that way. (If capturing your webcam via PC) Electron Capture has all throttling limits of Chrome disabled, so it might at least avoid any issue with that.
  • Is there a DAW or VST that can stream input from over the network (REST request)?
    4 projects | /r/audioengineering | 26 Feb 2022
    I use ElectronCapture which launches a browser that has no toolbars at all for capturing the full window and is easily scriptable.
  • OBS Ninja feed overtaxing new M1 Pro Macbook 32gb
    1 project | /r/VDONinja | 12 Jan 2022
    Finally, you can use the Electron Capture app instead of OBS Browser source to capture VDO streams. I have compiled it with M1 silicon support, so it should be very efficient. From there, you can window-capture the Electron output into OBS -- it should use very little CPU in this case. https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture/releases/tag/2.6.0
  • I am trying to record websites showing live tv, but sometimes OBS blacks it out. I tried reinstalling OBS one time and it worked, but then went black again. What's up?
    1 project | /r/obs | 23 Oct 2021
    Try this app if you are on Windows: https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture
  • Video Won't show up on OBS
    1 project | /r/VDONinja | 8 Oct 2021
    If it works with Chrome, but not OBS, you can download the electron capture app and try that instead. https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture
  • Audio Drops Mid-Stream - Please Help!
    3 projects | /r/OBSNinja | 27 Sep 2021
    The solution is to not use the OBS Browser source for audio capture. Instead, you can the app I provide to avoid these OBS issues, and that is the Electron Capture app. https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture
  • Video Glitching warnings - that for webcam only mainly or we also talking about during screen share?
    2 projects | /r/VDONinja | 22 Sep 2021
    I offer the Electron Capture app (https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture), which is a substitute for the OBS browser source, and it solves both the audio and video glitch issues I mention on the main page. It uses a relatively recent version of Chromium, never glitches the audio or video, and can actually improve audio sync and reduce CPU load.
  • Logitech BRIO not working in OBS.Ninja
    2 projects | /r/OBSNinja | 6 Aug 2021
    You could try the Electron Capture app perhaps as well, if you are looking for a different browser to try: https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture
  • Very Low Frame Rate
    1 project | /r/OBSNinja | 15 Jun 2021
    If things still don't work, you can consider trying the Electron Capture app instead of the OBS Browser source. https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture While it may be more hassle to use, it tends to use less CPU, offer better audio and sync, and has fewer stream-killing bugs.
  • OBS Ninja as an input into vMIX
    2 projects | /r/OBSNinja | 11 May 2021
    I've found good success using the Headless (NDI input) using vingester.app, assuming you have a decent CPU. The OBSN Electron app (as noted by Steve, obs.ninja creator) also works well: (https://github.com/steveseguin/electroncapture) . vMix Browser source seemed to eat up resources quicker that the two methods I mentioned previously. Let me know if you have any questions vs vmixcall. Also worth mentioning advanced.vmixcall.com is out of beta and available, though I can't remember if this is still limited to 720p.

  • How to add Chrome browsers without "window capture" option? (MAC)
    1 project | /r/obs | 14 Apr 2023
    Another consideration is, if you are usually capturing the exact same web page (like perhaps a stream elements overlay or similar) is to use Vingster.app (free and open source) which says it also works for Mac.

    3 projects | /r/VIDEOENGINEERING | 18 Oct 2022
    there is Vingester if that's something you do often but I find that I'm doing a lot of that work with a browser source inside OBS now
  • Hi I have a question!!
    1 project | /r/obs | 12 Oct 2022
    also don't do anything else on your computer while recording, and I'd recommend using something like (free) Vingester to make it easier to capture the window.
  • 8 SDI outputs from one laptop
    2 projects | /r/VIDEOENGINEERING | 10 Aug 2022
    You could use an app like https://vingester.app/ to create an NDI stream of each page and convert those to SDI using the many Birddog/magewell/Kiloview options.
  • Adding an overlay to the video?
    3 projects | /r/vjing | 8 Apr 2022
    I work overlays in streaming with SPX-GC (https://github.com/TuomoKu/SPX-GC) which feeds HTML via a virtual server and read those with Vingester (https://vingester.app/), a headless browser, to NDI. There are other tools that do this for framesharing like SPOUT (https://ultralig.ht/) and pretty sure something for an apple variant (Syphon has been suspended, right?)
  • Amazon IVS to send cameras over internet to OBS in another city?
    1 project | /r/VIDEOENGINEERING | 12 Oct 2021
    I found the soluction which works really, i mean - REALLY - good. On mixer side I use Vingerster https://vingester.app/ to get the video (it can emulate OBS, which i required to get data from Ninja). Vingester outputs the video to NDI and that I can get the stream to OBS on main mixing comupter. The video is flawless, no jagging.
  • Audio Drops Mid-Stream - Please Help!
    3 projects | /r/OBSNinja | 27 Sep 2021
    You can also just capture the desktop-audio or use https://vingester.app/ (vingester) to capture audio/video from VDO.Ninja. Apps like Vmix and probably Manycam support VDO.Ninja, and would also I'd imagine bypass the problem, rather than using OBS directly for browser capture.
  • Paid Service to Ingest Browser Based Live Video into OBS?
    1 project | /r/VIDEOENGINEERING | 14 Jul 2021
    So, I've been using VDO.Ninja and Vingester to pull WebRTC live video from anyone using the Chrome Browser and into a wireframed OBS Studio environment for my live production, and it works beautifully. The issue though is I have a client that wants something more "user friendly" for guests - and they are willing to pay for it. I've been doing some research, and I see Cicso Webex a lot.
  • A (REVISED) GUIDE: How I Made a Live Talk Show with OBS, VDO.Ninja, Vingester and live WhatsApp Call Ins
    1 project | /r/OBSNinja | 2 Jul 2021
    Since I first started to put together this workflow, I've been revising it to make it leaner and more robust. I wanted to share the latest iteration of this guide - one that uses the Vingester + OBS Window Capture method for my sources, as well as some great plugins I've come across.
