    OBS Studio - Free and open source software for live streaming and screen recording

  • Although not technically tied to it, the primary use-case of Vingester is to ingest the individual meeting participants of the awesome WebRTC-based OBS.Ninja solution as individual NDI-based video-streams into the mixing application OBS Studio in order to reduce performance drains within OBS Studio. The multicasted NDI-based video-streams especially allow you to also separate ingestion and mixing workflow onto multiple computers for additional performance.

    VDO.Ninja is a powerful tool that lets you bring remote video feeds into OBS or other studio software via WebRTC.

    VDO.Ninja Trampoline

  • When using OBS.Ninja, my personal recommendation is to use my companion tool OBS.Nina Trampoline: for each participant, create an URL with session mode "sender" and give it to the participant and use the same config but with session mode "receiver" and use the resulting URL in Vingester. The "receiver" mode automatically configures OBS.Ninja to have the participants video alone and no composite variants of all the participants. Just repeat this sender/receiver URL generation for each participant, but with a different "Peer Id" each time.
