Hello jacob,

Enjoyed your video on installing Jitsi Meet server. Installation went very well with nginx on my Linode.
Meeting work fine. I was interested in doing live streaming and recording. I watched your Jibri installation video and was turned back by the reality that they use Google Chrome. Instead I installed OBS and I checked my nginx installation. Fortunately a check of the dynamic modules showed that I already had the rtmp module already installed so I did not need to recompile nginx. I also installed libnginx-mod-rtmp. ( I have Debian 10). I followed the instructions at /www.nginx.com/blog/video-streaming-for-remote-learning-with-nginx/  to configure nginx and test streaming a file to vlc. This worked fine. However, when I streamed a Windows Capture using OBS to vlc I had to set the video bit rate down to 500-1000 to get steady playback in vlc and there was a 3 second delay between the live webcam and the playback. When capturing the browser window for a jitsi meeting the playback  completely stalled.

Also, in OBS view the color scheme is the opposite (flesh is blue)

Can you help me to get a jitsi meeting live streamed via OBS and rtmp in nginx?

Thanks,
Dennis
