share my screen #8

Hi,

Thanks for the package it is easy to install and works well.

The aim was to use this to just share my desktop to others using OBS. However when I watch the stream on the web players or on VLC it doesn't show the live stream but a slightly out of date one.

I don't want to save any video to the server. I just want a live stream that shows only the latest. Otherwise it won't make any sense to anyone. Is there any way to do that?

Sorry for late reply, May I know what is the latency of the live stream? RTMP can have a latency from 2-10 seconds depending on many factors. Based on my testing, I get around 2-3 seconds latency. If you need low latency, you may need to use webRTC protocol. Have a look at this article: https://www.wowza.com/blog/streaming-protocols-latency

Thanks Tareq. I switched to using an online meeting app instead. It was easy to use your server.
