The command "obs --startstreaming" is a command-line instruction used to initiate the streaming feature of OBS (Open Broadcaster Software). OBS is a free and open-source software used for video recording and live streaming.

When running this command, it triggers OBS to start streaming the current scene or source configured in the software. It essentially begins sending the video and audio content from OBS to the selected streaming platform or service, allowing viewers to watch your live stream in real-time.

The "--startstreaming" part of the command specifies the action to be performed, which is to begin streaming the content. By executing this command, you initiate the live streaming process using OBS.
