= What is OBS Light ?=
+
-
The project 'OBS Light' (or also obslight) , creates an encapsulation of OBS which presents a lighter face of OBS that we have called OBS light which could be delivered (if desired) with a pre-packaged MeeGo TV stack (or any other MeeGo vertical) released on a DVD image.

If you have (or are thinking about) selecting MeeGo but you cannot put all the code you want to build on OBS, the public, cloud-based MeeGo building tool, or if you are more comfortable with the tradition of local build tools based on a chroot than with a full cloud-based system like OBS, you might find the learning curve a bit steep.
+
-
 
+
-
While OBS will provide you with a very powerful and adapted tool for your long-term needs, the entry cost can be perceived to be too high.
+
-
This issue is particularly strongly perceived in the TV or IVI segments where recompilation of the Linux kernel and adding drivers is required even during the very early phases of a project and compiling in the public domain is out of the question.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
In a second phase we hope to add a simple UI to it. It reuses the osc command line tools delivered with OBS to which a set of extra plugins have been added, including an extension of mic. All this remains compatible with a full implementation of OBS. It will be published under License: GPLv2.
+
-
 
+
-
The osc plugin for automatic patch creation are designed to be reusable in a full OBS environment.
+
-
 
+
-
The coding is under work and changes are likely to occur during the development process.
