If anyone is using/testing WebRTC I would love to hear how it is working for them :) I am hoping Simulcast makes a impact with smaller streamers/site operators.
* Cheaper servers. More competition and I want to see people running their own servers.
* Better video quality. Encoding from source is going to be better then transcoding.
* No more bad servers. Send video to your audience and server isn't able to do modification/surveillance with E2E Encryption via WebRTC.
* Better Latency. No more time lost transcoding. I love low latency streaming where people are connected to community. Not just blasting one-way video.

If you build OBS from source and would like more than a 3-band equalizer without a plugin, I've still got my eq8 branch getting stale here:
https://github.com/phkahler/obs-studio/tree/eq8
I should rebase that...
BTW they do not want it upstream for whatever reasons. I'm not complaining, I get it. But some of us like this built-in so I'm keeping it around.

I like how OBS has subsumed (often low-quality) screen recording apps for me; apart from the apps original intent for streaming

Does anyone use OBS to record Teams or Zoom meetings? If so, what is the best way to set it up?
I wish their website had a getting started guide for this purpose but I haven't found one.

OBS is a great solution if you're on a budget or doing very simple streams, but I really urge anybody who is serious about live streaming professional shows to check out vMix. It's an incredible piece of software that is versatile and packed full of so many features professional broadcasts need all baked in.
