obs-studio
OBS Studio is a highly modular, cross-platform desktop application designed for live streaming and video recording. It allows users to compose scenes from various sources (e.g., cameras, screen capture, audio inputs), apply filters and transitions, and then output the result to streaming platforms or local files. The system is built around a core library (`libobs`), a graphical user interface (frontend), and an extensive plugin architecture that provides most of its functionality, including hardware integrations, encoders, and outputs. Its development relies heavily on CMake for build configuration across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
