Streaming Engine

Streamwell uses OvenMediaEngine, an open-source streaming engine created by Airensoft. OME provides some key functionality like the low-latency streaming capability, recordings and live thumbnails. A portion of each sale of Streamwell goes to Airensoft via GitHub Sponsors.

For self-hosted installations, there are some advanced configuration options available via the editor under Administration -> Server -> Engine Control -> Configure Engine. It is not recommended to dive in here unless you have a good understanding of the fundamentals and a backup of your original config.
