I have 1 PC that is good for gaming and an old PC that is not. I would like to send a raw or high-quality stream from my gaming PC, over the wired network, to my old PC. Then the old PC would do the encoding. How can I do this?
 
I would also like to do this, I am currently using splashtop to stream over LAN to my server which is then captured by obs. The issue im having is that the splashtop windows is black except for the border.
 
You can use the nginx guides in the resources section to set that up with OBS, but the encoding pc will need some power too. What you do is setup nginx (possible on windows, you wont need linux or a virtual machine) and stream to it from your main gaming pc at a high bitrate with for example the superfast/ultrafast preset or quicksync/nvenc if you have to put the least possible strain on your gaming pc.
On the second PC you then "just" watch that stream (including audio) and could put it into OBS on that PC, or instead of watching you can directly use ffmpeg for example to encode it and then stream further (I assume that is what you guys want to do).

Thanks, ill try it out. My problem with splashtop is that the only way obs picks it up is with monitor capture wich is limited to 10 fps for some reason.
