Question / Help [Solved] Relay system? Trying to make a 24/7 Stream idea.

[locknlol]

So, I'm attempting to make a 24/7 Twitch stream, however I don't want OBS to be running on my primary computer 24/7. So I started thinking, I have my server here not really doing anything, so I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out a way to work this out. I was hoping there was some way to create a relay server so I could do:

(OBS)
(Gaming PC: 192.168.1.5) ----> (Server: 192.168.1.7) ----> Twitch

That way I can setup two scenes, 1 would be the input from 192.168.1.5, with my game, desktop, and sound and all that. The other scene would be like a background image or recording that would be just... idk stuff? game play or something, that says "[PRE-RECORDED]"

Then I can switch between scenes when I want to actually stream. Any thoughts?

Wowza server does what you want, but it's not free.

You can also set OBs on the server to accept a feed from your gaming PC via the Video plugin, but that's a bit tricky to get going.

Hmmm... There might be other ways, like using nginx with some other bits.

Using Google might be your best bet.

Something to keep in mind is not using up all your data on your plan (if you have a data limit). Streaming 24/7 at 2500kbps = 798GiB to stream for 31 days.

Excellent points, maybe I won't do the 24/7 stream then. However, the rest of what you said sounds great, and I just realized that "Browser Plugin" can accept an RTMP so if I just setup an RTMP server that will work just as well.
