Hello!

I have one Windows 7 pc, the one im streaming on (Desktop pc)
Also
I have another one, a Laptop (expensive one with i7, which i have windows 8 on).


What i want is to make the game stream/obs sends my game + stream from my first pc (Desktop with Nvidia Nvenc/Quick sync with high bitrate) to my 2nd pc (Laptop) which then are doing the encoding part (x264 with low bitrate to twich).


So tldr

Stream from first pc + game (nvidia nsync) to my 2nd pc (Laptop, x264) to twitch.


I have read this guide

https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/guide-two-pc-configuration-without-capturecard.6757/

But is that really the easiest way to do it? I really don't want to much "shit" programs to do it, that just gonna lay on my laptop not doing anything while im not streaming. Do i really need the ubuntu things mentioned?
 
You don't have to use Ubuntu; there are Windows builds here and here. But you might need to modify Windows's default send window for the FFmpeg transcode to work.
