    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
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 21 Sep 2023
    Quite tangential, but during lockdown I was looking for a way to use my iPhone as a webcam and came across this project:

    https://vdo.ninja/

    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.

  • Streaming Highschool Sports - Need Help and Recommendations
    1 project | /r/obs | 26 Jun 2023
    I plan on streaming highschool sports at my school next year and would like some recommendations on what to do. I have a canon rebel T7I which I plan on using for telephoto shots, a camera for broadcasters, and plan on using my phone and vdo.ninja to get a full field view. We are operating on not the biggest budget because most of it is going towards a laptop. My biggest issue right now is trying to figure out how to make the stream more visually appealing in terms of graphics, sports bugs, and score board overlays. Are there any free programs for that? What do you recommend? Any other feedback or changes you would make in terms of the rest of my plan?
  • [LFG] Looking for older amateur/beginners in Europe for stoner rock
    3 projects | /r/BedroomBands | 24 Jun 2023
    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.

  • 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.

    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

    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.
