I would like to use OBS in order to connect to another streaming service (Amazon IVS). However, for my use case, OBS needs to run on a server where the video will also be running. Is it possible to entirely "script" OBS and have it run through lines of code rather than using the traditional application?
Is it possible to script OBS to allow it to run entirely on a server?

Might be able to use WebSockets to control OBS that way Though I don't understand your use case
@deFrisselle For my use case, I want to set up a server that I can connect a video stream to that will encode it and send it to a tool like Amazon IVS or Youtube. The server would run OBS or FFMPEG when a connection was established and broadcast video from that source to the endpoint. Ideally, I would also be able to control or stop the stream. Upon further investigation, it seems that FFMPEG might be useful as I can write code to execute FFMPEG commands (when a successful and approved server connection is established)

Yeah, FFMPEG would work best
