Known issues

1. OBS Studio does no support KeepAlive.

Symptoms: disconnection occurs often while stream publishing with RTMP-encoder.

Solution: switch KeepAlive off for RTMP on the server using the following parameter in flashphoner.properties file

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
keep_alive.enabled=websocket,rtmfp

2. If RTMP stream is published from OBS using Nvidia GPU encoding, this stream may freeze when it is playing in Safari browser as WebRTC, or Safari browser may hang

Symptoms: stream playback freezes of browser hangs while playing RTMP stream as WebRTC in Safari browser

Solution: in OBS settings switch recording format from flv (by default) to mp4
