Hi i found major drawback of OBS is unable to do live on FB as well as youtube.This makes OBS useless.If we can compare with Livestream then obs stands nothing.
there is large community contributing but i see politics or some influence by monkey making community and because of this tenancy OBS community is not growing and even i feel OBS doesn't want to be.
my concerns is why OBS is not making application like LiveStream.com
1. no multiple streaming
2. no user friendly interface
3. no web interface

what i think my concerns if genuine and someone from group must answer.

Facebook doesn't allow it with their terms of service, so even if it were implemented, you're setting yourself up to getting banned from facebook streaming for doing so.

1: Hmmm, could it be Livestream cost $75.00 and up for a month? OBS is FREE...
2: Hmmm, OBS does have a reasonably easy interface... Oh, did I mention OBS is FREE...??
3: Hmmm, I don't know what you mean by 'Web Interface' But, I know what FREE means...

Try Googling OBS reviews and you'll see OBS is recommended far more then others for ease of use and support..
Ohhhh, it's FREE too!

You can use a service like restream.io to duplicate your OBS stream to multiple streaming services.

The missing function in OBS to stream to multiple sources is not as dramatic as you want to make it look. You're trying to promote your feature request with some kind of drama, but the attempt fails. Check Jim's latest blog post to see a proud announcement from the author of one of the (if not the) most widely used streaming apps.

You can use other FREE tools like nginx-rtmp to restream to any destination.

If you do not have manual skills, then the lack of a web interface can be 'unstoppable' for you.
OBS is one of the best tools for live broadcasting.

Multiple destination is easy.
run (local or on internet server) nginx-rtmp
send stream to nginx-rtmp

now you can
1) set in nginx.conf push to any rtmp server you can (FB, YT etc.)
2) use ffmpeg to manual push to any rtmp server (FB, YT etc.)

What's so difficult?

It's the same functionality as in restream.io or livestream.com only for free. You just have to sacrifice your time.
