Rooms allow for group-chat and the tools to manage multiple guests.

--- | ---
Password: |

Important Tips:
- Invite only guests to the room that you trust.
- iOS devices will share just their audio with other room guests; not video. This is intentional.
- The "Recording" option is considered experimental.

## What is OBS.Ninja

- 100% free; no downloads; no personal data collection; no sign-in
- Bring video from your smartphone, computer, or friends directly into your OBS video stream
- We use cutting edge Peer-to-Peer forwarding technology that offers privacy and ultra-low latency
- Youtube video Demoing it here
Known issues:
- MacOS users will need to use OBS v23 or resort to Window Capturing with the provided Electron-Capture app for the time being.
- If you have "pixel smearing" or corrupted video, try adding &codec=vp9 or &codec=h264 to the OBS view link. Using Wi-Fi will make the issue worse.
- iOS devices may have occasional audio issues, such as no sound. Fully close Safari and reopen it if nothing else seems to work.
- The VP9 codec on Chromium-based browsers seems to lag when screen-sharing at the moment. Use the OBS Virtual Camera as a capture source instead.
🎈 Site Updated: November 9th, 2020. The previous version can be found at https://obs.ninja/v12/ if you are having new issues.

Audio Output Destination:
Welcome. This is the director's control-room for the group-chat.
You can host a group chat with friends using a room. Share the blue link to invite guests who will join the chat automatically.
Known Limitations with Group Rooms:
- A group room can handle up to around 30 guests, depending on numerous factors, including CPU and available bandwidth of all guests in the room. To achieve more than around 7-guests though, you will likely want to disable video sharing between guests. &roombitrate=0 or &novideo are options there.
- Videos will appear of low quality on purpose for guests and director; this is to save bandwidth and CPU resources. It will be high-quality within OBS still though.
- The state of the scenes, such as which videos are active in a scene, are lost when the director resets the control-room or the scene.
Further Notes:
- Links to Solo-views of each guest video are offered under videos as they load. These can be used within an OBS Browser Source.
- You can use the auto-mixing Group Scenes, the green links, to auto arrange multiple videos for you in OBS.
- You can use this control room to record isolated video or audio streams, but it is an experimental feature still.
- If you transfer a guest from one room to another, they won't know which room they have been transferred to.
- OBS will see a guest's video in high-quality; the default video bitrate is 2500kbps. Setting higher bitrates will improve motion.
- VP8 is typically the default video codec, but using &codec=vp9 or &codec=h264 as a URL in OBS can help to reduce corrupted video puke issues.
- &stereo=2 can be added to guests to turn off audio effects, such as echo cancellation and noise-reduction.
- https://invite.cam is a free service provided that can help obfuscuate the URL parameters of an invite link given to guests.
- Adding &showonly=SOME_OBS_VIRTUALCAM to the guest invite links allows for only a single video to be seen by the guests; this can be output of the OBS Virtual Camera for example
For advanced URL options and parameters, see the Wiki.
