With 300 for a half-day, it would be 600 for a full day and 12000 for 20 days of work.

In most parts of the world, that's an extremely high level salary and could easily fund most peoples month, granted they live outside of Silicon Valley.

I'm sure many people would be more than happy to receive 300 or much less for half a day of work.

But my point was its not a quick half day fix for some minor formatting on a website - which you can out source offshore.

Your talking windows audio /video internals which is not a common skill

I believe the goal included linux also.

The going rate for a developer is about £300-600 a day in North Europe for relatively common skillsets such as C#. It isn't just silicon valley.

The $10,000 bounty is about right for this sort of work. In fact it might be a little low, but I have no idea how OBS works internally so I could be completely wrong.

I don't think it's a problem of OBS, but the problem of writing a dummy v4l-device it seems. which IS more complicated! (though I wonder what it's used for)

$300 is gross. You have to pay taxes on this. In many developed countries this would be $150 after taxes.

Can we stop talking about $300? It was a random number used as a variable that can be replaced with any dollar amount.
