 Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) is a free and open-source cross-platform streaming and recording program built with Qt and maintained by the OBS Project.

-== Usage at VOC+## Usage at VOC
  
 Our on-premise video productions typically use [[:voctomix]] or voc2mix, but started using OBS for the remote conferences in 2020 (DiVOCs, SOTM 2020, etc.) for speakers and in our "cloud" due to its flexibility. The first usecase is described at [[:distributed-conference#open_broadcast_software_obs|distributed conference]], the second at [[events:sotm2020#mixer_manual]] and https://github.com/voc/cm/compare/mixer-obs. Our on-premise video productions typically use [[:voctomix]] or voc2mix, but started using OBS for the remote conferences in 2020 (DiVOCs, SOTM 2020, etc.) for speakers and in our "cloud" due to its flexibility.

-== Usage during rC3+## Usage during rC3
  
 For rC3 everything is different: We (VOC and the decentralised studios/channels) use several different video mixing solutions, both in software and maybe even in hardware. See [[events:rc3:production]] to get an overview: Speakers used OBS Studio to prerecord talks (provided with a [[events:rc3:speakers-prep:obs-template|template]]); studios use OBS Studio for playout or live video production, channels use OBS Studio as broadcast distribution switcher. A basic template for this second use-case can be found on [[events:rc3:artwork]]. For rC3 everything is different: We (VOC and the decentralised studios/channels) use several different video mixing solutions, both in software and maybe even in hardware.

 +If you want to check audio levels for sources that are not currently live, there is a small trick to get OBS to show them: simply pull the transition slider one pixel to the right. This will add the audio meters, but you won't see and hear the new sources yet.
