obs-ndi-4.11.1-windows-x64-installer.exe . It wasn't just an installer. It was a skeleton key. It had unlocked the cage of physical cables and turned her tangled desk into a wireless studio. It was, she decided, the most beautiful filename she had ever seen. For one terrifying second, the preview pane remained black

For three years, she had run a two-PC streaming setup. Gaming on the main rig, encoding and streaming on the secondary. The connection? A simple HDMI cable running from her gaming GPU’s output to a capture card on the streaming PC. It was reliable, like a stubborn mule. But it was also a cage.
