Questions about p2p usage, and usage against other webrtc servers. #247

Hello,

This is a very nice software and something I would love to see in the official OBS build. However, I am struggling to understand how to use custom webRTC implementations with it. How would I go about setting up a peer-to-peer connection or stream webRTC to a server other than the ones in the options? Also, does anyone know of any webRTC servers that are free and work on Windows?

Thanks, Peter

hi Peter.

p2p

streaming out to another webrtc peer is likely not an option.
streaming in from a peer could be done through the browser source.

using other server

add support for that server specific signalling.
use a server that supports WHIP through the "custom webrtc server" option. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-murillo-whip/

I do not know any free webrtc server for windows.

We obviously recommend you to use this with the millicast.com platform for best performances.

Thanks for the information. I think I have Janus running and I am using http://172.20.219.19:8188/, but I don't know where to find the stream key OBS asks for.

Update specific to janus server:

No support for Janus will be provided by default. Bruden of proof (that there is a bug on the OS Side) is on the one(s) opening the tickets.
There is no commercial support for this fork of OBS.
Janus support will only be done through the WHIP protocol.
Commercial support for Janus server side is available here.
