Networking 2 OBS instances on 2 separate computers?

I know computers can talk to each other while networked on Ethernet or a common wifi device

I know how to do 2 broadcasts at once on one computer.

If the other 2 broadcasts are based off the first broadcast (example width-compressed and monochromized red and cyan conversions of the main broadcast) can they access the main broadcast, and rebroadcast 2 conversions on 2 separate you tube channels I own?

Btw I have 50 MB outbound on my economy fiber home network.

This is one of the featured plugins:
Install it everywhere, and then set up the various sending and receiving endpoints as needed.

Outbound is only for the final stream(s). Whatever goes between your local machines stays on your local network. You could do this with 56k dial-up or even no internet at all, as long as your local router can shovel data fast enough between its own ports. You'd have to record everything and upload at the library or something like that, but it'd work.

My question is can it take my video captured upstairs broadcasted using Aitum Vertical In two different formats one for Twitch one for YouTube. Send the video source of my main video to a second instance of OBS use that instance with Aitum vertical to generate two new outputs based off the same source and I just either got to find two more services or alternate identities for YouTube and Twitch. I know I could use two different YouTube identities I guess I either have to find out if I could have two different twitch identities running simultaneously or if I should use a third service like Kick for the third part.

Heck if there is a streaming service for primarily 3D viewers, I'd like to take advantage of that and make that my primary. So I don't have to worry about twin twitch identities.

By the way I got 50 megabits outbound so therefore I can handle five broadcasts, assuming they're 1280x720 by 24-bit color by 30 frames per second.

You don't want to use the final (compressed) broadcast as a source somewhere else. You want the full, uncompressed version, or at least lossless. And (probably just for that), the NDI plugin does include an option to send the main output. Set up the receiving end to grab that...
