Send SRT Video From OBS to OBS Without a server!

In this video, 2NU Video Engineer Build explains every step in the process of sending a Peer to Peer SRT feed over the internet from one OBS, to another.
This tutorial explains every step, and explains why and how port forwarding, static IPs, and more works along the way. I hope you learn something!

Very easy to follow! Thank you for the amazing SRT tutorial!

[dreggish]

[lostsurferjames]

Holy yes this is literally everything I needed and answered all my questions. Much appreciate your video!

[abdelkiki]

Thank you so much, this video helped me very very much, it is the only video I found in Youtube that explaining the SRT very clear.

How to exactly does it work to do it from distance?

[KonorSacks]

Im running in to an issue when i put the srt address in the streaming location, i would still like to record locally. After a while the port just doesn't connect anymore.

[robert]

What do you think would be the setup for the absolute lowest latency? what hardware would I need?

[wongobongo]

Once I get a steam deck I'm going to try using this for my IRL streams.

[TerenceKearns]

That was really great. If you had enough bandwidth, you could remotely produce shows for clients.

[FinchIsFubar]

So I have tried this over and over and over again doing everything step by step and when I click start streaming or recording it wont work. Feel like there is something I am doing wrong or something I am missing.

[hummelialaviiva]

Nice video! Thanks a lot!

Is there some tag/code for example for the streamkey (if you want to define that also)

[vidkid]

Hey, I’m getting around 5 seconds of delay and I’m using the record option

[undergroundnews_dk]

Nice guide - strange with recoding option and the delay using the stream option.

[JanFieber]

Fantastic tutorial. Thank you so much!

[salemgiath]

Thanks so much!
I have no access to the router for port forwarding but thankfully I can use my VPN to get a VPN IP and port forwarding from it.

I wanted to ask if you have an idea how I could receive the video stream on VLC?
I’d like to simple watch it full screen with audio when I need.
I tried clicking “Open Network Stream” and putting the same listener link but it doesn’t load it.

[OhHeyRudy]

I just cant get it to work. OBS says "Could not access the specified channel or stream key, please double-check your
stream key. If it is correct, there may be a problem connecting to the server." I don't have anything in stream key.

[wilbursker]

If you've connected multiple cameras/ports can the receiver be in full control of all inported SRTs / switch in between each camera, and format their outputting main stream (multiple scenes with two cameras at once, etc.) without the sender's knowledge or needing the sender to do anything?
