OBS integration
Recovery built into the workflow you already use.
Install the Beam plugin, connect your account, and stream from OBS as usual.
The current beta downloads as a ZIP, not a .pkg. Installation is manual and takes a few minutes.

Setup
From download to a test stream.
The ZIP includes the plugin bundle, a starter configuration, and the complete install guide.
- 01
Download and unzip
Quit OBS, then open the downloaded ZIP.
- 02
Copy the two included files
Put the plugin in the OBS plugins folder and the starter configuration in the Beam folder.
- 03
Approve the beta once
If macOS blocks it, choose Allow Anyway in Privacy & Security, then reopen OBS.
- 04
Link the portal and stream
Use Link with Portal in the Beam dock, select your stream, then use the normal OBS Stream button.
Beta safeguard
Keep a local OBS recording during important tests. The current plugin holds recovery history in memory, so quitting or crashing OBS clears pending recovery data.
