A shame that ffmpeg itself still has no support for whip/whep. It's a really promissing protocol and the lack of it sucks since ffmpeg doesn't have a real ultra low latency streaming protocol, SRT and RIST are the closest it has.

If you don't need all the fancy OBS features, GPU Screen Recorder is probably much more lean on resources.

For something simpler and more efficient, although it needs root, use https://git.dec05eba.com/gpu-screen-recorder/about/

Nice, but released without supporting newly ffmpeg 6.1
