WebRTC support is being added to OBS

The whole thread is from early 2021 and so it should have [2021] in the title.

The only relatively modern part is a few comments on the bottom, one of which states, "Q3 2022 is our new target for an MVP of WebRTC output."

>FTL was created by Mixer

It was created by Beam.pro before Microsoft came in and they rebranded.

Does this new WebRTC protocol have comparable latency. I was extremely surprised the first time Beam started beta testing FTL. I typed a chat message and it immediately showed up on stream. I was amazed.

WebRTC by itself is what is used by Zoom and/or game streaming services like Amazon Luna or Stadia, so it has the potential to be extremely low-latency. What I'm more skeptical about is how they are going to make the single-producer multiple-consumer model work, which is the use case for streaming services.

Perhaps they are only planning on using this to communicate between the streamer and the Twitch servers?

Does OBS support anything like that? As I understand it OBS is mostly used for streaming to a single endpoint like Twitch and YouTube and those services redistribute to multiple consumers.

FTL uses WebRTC too.

WHIP seems the way to go. I found this good description of it https://www.meetecho.com/blog/whip-janus-part-ii/
