This release includes WebRTC support. I would really appreciate if people could try it! I have so many things I want to improve with broadcasting.

——

* Serverless Streaming - WebRTC is P2P so you can video right into your browser. You don’t have to stand up a server anymore to stream for a small audience.

* Sub-Second Latency - Create content and interact with viewers instantly. There is something magical about having a real conversation with your viewers.

* Multitrack Input - Upload your transcodes instead of generating then server side. Give viewers multiple video tracks to see action from all sides.

* Mobility - WebRTC lets you switch networks at any time. Go from WiFi -> Mobile with zero interruptions.

* E2E Authentication - WebRTC lets you add authentication on the sender and receiver. Broadcasters could sign their video streams so viewers can be sure it wasn’t modified.

Try it out with Broadcast Box. A reference server implementation. https://github.com/glimesh/broadcast-box


I also have things I want to do next. I am going to make it so you can host a podcast/co-stream with only using OBS.

No more screen capping or using other tools to bring others on.

If this interests you I would love feedback/help.


I am interested in a setup that looks kind of like this: myself and another person streaming from our own remote locations. Viewers can switch between which of the streams they want to view (or choosing both at the same time!) while listening one or the other of the audio streams.


I would love to help you build this. I don't think it would be hard either.

Your first point mentions no server needed, but then you link a server application needed to do so. Do you have any information about the serverless aspect?


WebRTC supports both. You can deploy a media server or do P2P.

Depends on amount of users/other requirements
