General options

You can add them to both, source (&push) and viewer (&view or &scene) sides.

​&effects​
Applies effects to the video/audio feeds
Sets the amount of blur or effect applied
Target video bitrate and max bitrate for outgoing video streams
Limits the max video bitrate out for this publisher, per stream out
Limits the total outbound bitrate
Allows a guest to control their total room video bitrate dynamically from the settings panel (under video settings)
Limits any guest viewer in the group chat room from pulling the video stream at more than the specified bitrate value
The preview video will be fullscreen
​&preview​
Forces the guest to have a self-preview, overriding &broadcast​

Has a guest join a group not visible to others
Auto mutes guest's video

Viewer side options

You have to add them to the viewer side (&room or &view or &scene).
Parameter
Explanation
Sets the "desired target" bitrate in kbps
Max. video bitrate a scene uses
The total bitrate a guest in a room can view video streams with
Lets you set the target bitrate for a guest when they 'zoom in' (fullscreen) on a video
​&optimize​
Video bitrate reduced when the video is not visible in OBS (not active in a scene)
​&scale​
Scales the video resolution of the inbound video by the given percent
​&codec​
Sets the codec to encode the video
OpenH264 software encoding will be used
