Optimal setup for streaming iPad with recorded backup?

North Yorkshire, England

I’m picking up various iPad games atm, and I’m wondering if anyone has any pointers on improving my streaming and recording setups.

Right now I use separate paths: stock screen recorder for recording ILs, and Reflector4 to a Mac running Streamlabs OBS for streaming. Ideally when I start doing any% runs I’d like to stream attempts then submit a simultaneous recording, but vods aren’t guaranteed to be of submittable quality and Reflector sometimes drops the connection mid-game (both may be improved when I change ISP and router later this month).

Is there a better pipeline for streaming? I can have iPad and MacBook Pro connected by USBC, Bluetooth, wired or wifi. Eventually I’ll have a PC to stream with, but not right now.

Is it feasible to screen record locally and airplay/slobs at the same time, or should I be recording from slobs? Or is slobs inadequate here? Also unsure how likely this would be to fill my local and cloud storage if done on iPad.

Thanks!
