Description

this would require a webrtc -> rtmp streaming transcoder (not sure how to do that)

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/docs/liveStreams

the idea is you can use screencat to broadcast your screen + audio directly to a youtube live stream. maybe hangouts on air is possible to somehow?
