OBS-web v5

[Niek]

Is there a way to run an instance on an internal server, within a firewall?

If you mean "can I access an internal/firewalled OBS instance over the internet": sure, the easiest way is this:

• Install ngrok from https://ngrok.com/download
• Run: ngrok http 4455
• Copy the "forwarding" URL you see, change "https" in "wss" and use that to connect, for example: wss://ID.eu.ngrok.io

Actually, I meant can I run an instance of obs-web on my own server, within a firewall?

You can download the latest build ZIP file of obs-web here, there is no need to run a web server - you can just open index.html and have it running.

Hi,
if I use this for streaming: How can I manage the broadcasts from remote?

Is there a way to add additional commands to interface with OBS, such as triggering hotkeys from a button?

Also, Is it possible to not show certain scenes?

I just downloaded the HTML file pack, unzipped it into a directory where I keep a lot of ancillary OBS tools, then created a web panel to load this page. Reason: I use a two-OBS setup, one on one computer to capture and composite, sending the resulting video via NDI to a second, which does the actual encoding and streaming. I also have Websockets installed on the encoder/streamer OBS instance, to which I point your page via the abovementioned web panel in the streaming OBS setup. That way I can make sure the right scenes are selected in case something goes wrong with the Advanced Scene Switcher process I use for most of the automation I do, which includes making sure the NDI ingestion scene is actually visible when I need it to be.

Thanks so much for this. I wanted something super simple yet didn't need something needlessly complete like TouchPortal or LioranBoard (which I really only use with the studio PC). This is perfect for this purpose!

Interesting. I have a user of my 24/7 app that does something similar. They have one copy of obs , paired with my app over a web-socket that outputs to SRT. The live obs, either receives and plays the 24/7 stream or switches to the live stream mode, using my 24/7 when a live event is not in process.
