  You should ideally be using a different machine for this to reduce network and possibly encode load, there are plenty of solutions for streaming to multiple endpoints you can self-host or put in the cloud. See for example: https://docs.datarhei.com/restreamer/

  Depending on how you want to achieve this, you could use a combination of OBS + Restreamer or OBS + Project-Lightspeed. Another solution would be to use more specific solutions like neko

• FastoCloud [COM] version currently available on GitHub

  You could try posting an issue on ReStreamer's Github page and see if someone there has figured out how to make it work with Unifi-cam-proxy - https://github.com/datarhei/restreamer

• How to watch a stream on Quest?
  1 project | /r/VRchat | 10 Nov 2022

  Although if you know something about server then you could in theory use https://github.com/datarhei/restreamer, but only for Quest since let's encrypt certificates do not work with PC, I don't know why Quest supports them, but this version of Unity is simply too old, and doesn't support the current let's encrypt certs, unless you manually install them, which everyone on PC would have to do.

• Redirect http to https for app running in docker container

  I did open a ticket, but no reply so far.

• Redirect http to https with app running in docker container
  1 project | /r/docker | 8 Nov 2022

  I have successfully redirected http to https with web apps before, but they were always run directly by either nginx or Apache. This particular app is Restreamer, which is run in a Docker container. I have Docker and the container running a GCP instance running Debian Bullseye. I don't understand how to redirect http to https with this. For example, I tried searching the actual Debian system for various strings in files, such as my.domain.com.key (the .key file that Letsencrypt created; I used the web app option to have https) thinking that the key file must be referenced somewhere, and that I may be able to redirect http to https within that file, whatever it is. I also tried searching within the docker container itself (ie, sudo docker exec -u 0 -it /bin/sh and then searching the filesystem within that). I tried other terms like listen or 8080 or 80 or VirtualHost, .htaccess, etc. I can't find anything that will allow me to redirect since I don't understand how the web app is run or what it is run with (if that makes sense).
