Interesting *plugin review*, especially for a plugin that doesn't contain any art whatsoever. And a very nice way to acknowledge half a year of programming work (because I am a programmer, not a designer), blood, sweat and tears that went into this project, thanks a lot and have a great day.

A very good plugin that allows video streaming between two computers, solving the issue I had with NDI streaming where the bitrate could not be aligned, resulting in stuttering video on the receiving end.

However, after today's update to 30.2.0-beta1, it is no longer supported. When entering the OBS software, an error message is displayed: Unhandled exception: e06d7363

Thanks for the review and also for opening an issue on the GitHub repo about Beam not being compatible with the upcoming 30.2.X version of OBS anymore, will look into it and hopefully have an update ready by the time this version is released at the latest.

I just set this up to use two instances of OBS...one for casting and one for capturing. Then I sent the video over the Named Pipes and this works for using one PC. This is extremely amazing!! 10/10

Most people were forced to purchase expensive encoding equipment due to the loss of capturing high bandwidth devices. Capturing and casting high bandwidth GPUs and high refresh rate monitors is exactly what this plugin can do, even when this is in beta. Keep up the amazing work!

God tier plugin, This is the plugin what I needed for a long time. now I can some 5GbE, or faster NIC.
In v0.6.0-beta, I didn't face any bug, even the network is not that fast to fit my need. but a beam source doesn't refresh itself, when a sender setting have changed.
Also I hope there is beam video filter to send a certain source to another OBS.

Thanks for the review and the feedback! A filter for a single source will certainly be implemented later, I just want to sort out a few other things first. Regarding the refresh issue it would be nice if you could describe your issue more thoroughly in the Discussion area. Changing a sender setting should actually make any source disconnect, reconnect and use the new settings.
