It helps to know what you are looking to accomplish. OBS is interesting since it can be used to either record or stream. It also mixes audio/video sources so it's useful for podcasting applications. For a communication tool then your search will probably take you in a very different direction.
Ben, It is the recording that has precedence over the streaming. I need to look deeply into what FCC provides for webinars, but I'll probably want to record the speach and slides for a webinar and view them to understand how it comes across to attendees. I don't know that live streaming would be useful in developing business.
As an example, if you were looking to create a tutorial where you walk through using an application on your computer as you narrate what you are doing, OBS is a very good solution since it can combine a video feed of your desktop with a video feed of your face (webcam). Either live, through a streaming server or recorded to a file on your hard drive for sharing later. Works well on Slackware which is nice.
I'll make time to view the 5+ hour master course in using OBS. And of course it works well on Slackware. :-) Most things do, including me. Thanks for the useful insights.
