Over the past three semesters, I've come to really appreciate OBS.

For live streams as a replacement for lectures,
in hybrid events to stream from the lecture hall,
in Zoom meetings,
but also in face-to-face events (for controlling the projector).

This video shows my typical use case and a mini-tutorial on how to create a simple scene.
