Share Website



Enter the URL website you wish to share.



  • Remote website must be CORS/IFrame compatible with full SSL-encryption enabled.
  • Not all websites will work with this feature and many will actively not allow embedding like this.
  • If sharing a Youtube video, try using the embeddable link version and ensure that the video is set to allow embedding.

    What is OBS.Ninja


  • 100% free; no downloads; no personal data collection; no sign-in

  • We use cutting edge Peer-to-Peer forwarding technology that offers privacy and ultra-low latency

  • Youtube video Demoing it here

    • Known issues:
  • MacOS users using OBS will need to update to OBS Studio 26.1.2 or resort to window-capturing with the provided Electron-Capture app.
  • If you have "pixel smearing" or corrupted video, try adding &codec=vp9 or &codec=h264 to the OBS view link. Using Wi-Fi will make the issue worse.
  • iOS devices may have occasional audio or camera issues, such as no sound or distorted sound. Partially fixed in iOS 14.3
  • Chrome on Android 11 has an issue with the browser freezing at times. To unfreeze it, background the browser and then foreground it again.
  • The VP9 codec on Chromium-based browsers seems to lag when screen-sharing at the moment. Use the OBS Virtual Camera as a capture source instead.

    • 🥳 Site Updated: Fed 3rd, 2021. The previous version can be found at https://obs.ninja/v15/ if you are having new issues.

    LINKS (GUEST INVITES & SCENES) Click Here for a quick overview and help
    Welcome. This is the director's control-room for the group-chat.

    You can host a group chat with friends using a room. Share the blue link to invite guests who will join the chat automatically.

    Known Limitations with Group Rooms:
  • A group room can handle up to around 30 guests, depending on numerous factors, including CPU and available bandwidth of all guests in the room. To achieve more than around 7-guests though, you will likely want to disable video sharing between guests. Using &broadcast, &roombitrate=0 or &novideo are options there.
  • Videos will appear of low quality on purpose for guests and director; this is to save bandwidth and CPU resources. It will be high-quality within OBS still though.
  • The state of the scenes, such as which videos are active in a scene, are lost when the director resets the control-room or the scene.

    • Further Notes:

  • Links to Solo-views of each guest video are offered under videos as they load. These can be used within an OBS Browser Source.
  • You can use the auto-mixing Group Scenes, the green links, to auto arrange multiple videos for you in OBS.
  • You can use this control room to record isolated video or audio streams, but it is an experimental feature still.
  • If you transfer a guest from one room to another, they won't know which room they have been transferred to.
  • OBS will see a guest's video in high-quality; the default video bitrate is 2500kbps. Setting higher bitrates will improve motion.
  • VP8 is typically the default video codec, but using &codec=vp9 or &codec=h264 as a URL in OBS can help to reduce corrupted video puke issues.
  • &stereo=2 can be added to guests to turn off audio effects, such as echo cancellation and noise-reduction.
  • https://invite.cam is a free service provided that can help obfuscuate the URL parameters of an invite link given to guests.
  • Adding &showonly=SOME_OBS_VIRTUALCAM to the guest invite links allows for only a single video to be seen by the guests; this can be output of the OBS Virtual Camera for example

    • For advanced URL options and parameters, see the Wiki.
