Game Capture app window showing window selection and go live controls — Current Windows app interface (native Qt build)

How It Works

Creator sets stream ID and shares a link with the guest.
Guest opens Game Capture and selects the game/window to publish.
OBS uses view/scene links to pull the feed.
Room workflows support role-based quality control.

Why This App

Window audio capture without virtual audio cables.
Hardware-accelerated encoding for smoother performance.
Dual-stream quality model: HQ + LQ routing when needed.
Multiple viewers from one HD encode workflow.
No Electron runtime, low memory usage, native Qt app.
Simple alternative to OBS for guest-side game feed publishing.
Built for VDO.Ninja compatibility and link workflows.

Current Scope

Windows only right now.
No auth guard for role claims (production tool model).
Limit max connections to protect publisher performance.
