Post-Setup Verification for OvenMediaEngine Enterprise
In this example, we used OBS Studio, one of the most widely used live encoder software tools, along with the RTMP protocol.
Streaming with a Live Encoder (OBS Studio)
Launch Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) Studio.
If OBS Studio is not installed, download and install it from: https://obsproject.com/download
Add or select the media source you want to stream (e.g., Media Source, Camera, Screen Capture, or more).
Click [Settings] in the lower-right corner of OBS.
Configure the Stream destination in OBS
In the Settings window, select the [Stream] tab on the left.
In [Service], select [Custom], then enter the Ingress URL into the Server filed.
Ingress URL format:
rtmp://{Public IPv4}:1935/app/stream
If the Ingress URL already includes the stream key, you may leave Stream Key empty.
Next, in the [Output] tab, apply the minimum required settings for sub-second/low-latency streaming:
Keyframe Interval: 1andB-frames: 0.
The image above shows the option window when x264 is selected as the encoder. If you choose a different encoder, the available options and layout may vary. However, regardless of the encoder you use, you should set the Keyframe Interval option to 1 second and the B-frames option to 0.
If needed, adjust additional settings in tabs such as [Audio] and [Video], then click [OK] to return to the OBS main screen.
Finally, click [Start Streaming] to begin publishing.
If you would like to verify basic operation using other protocols (RTSP Pull, WebRTC/WHIP, SRT, RTMP/E-RTMP, etc.), please refer to the Publish Streams section.
