Absolutely being slept on. Hands down one of the most informative and complete walkthroughs delivered in a clear, precise, to the point, manner.
Really appreciate that Joel! Thank you. More on the way. Just been really busy with client work this year.
Prepping for my first RUclips Livestream after streaming via Twitch for three years. Super helpful and thank you for taking the time to explain the set up! Feeling less nervous about streaming on RUclips now!
You got this! The best teacher is experience. You're already a veteran streamer, youtube isnt that different than Twitch.
I have been learning OBS since 2020, watched over hundreds videos, and this one is definitely THE BEST OBS streaming toturial video!!! Just realized my GPU setting is targeted at intel onbaord UHD Graphics 770 (GPU 0) not my Nvidia 3070 Ti (GPU 1)!!!
same here. I watched so many videos they tell you to let it 0. It's because they're using a PC not a Laptop
Thank you so much for the instructions
Thank you! Just a tiny correction. Not 'MegaBytes', but megaBITS (that's 8 times lower than Bytes). MB measure how much space is on the disk and Mbs measure the transfer speed of bits per second.
Good catch. Sorry about that!
Thanks guys this is very helpful I’m just starting and I’ve been so confused on this
thank you so much! :D
Thanks It helps alot!!!
Thank you. Clear easy to follow.
Great explanation. I will follow it so I can set up my YB with OBS. I just updated it. As far as overlays, I use Canva.
Well done!
Hello thank you for your excellent explanation i loved your video keep it up🔥
Aight let me try this
Thank you!
very good info. do you have a video showing how to setup obs on 2 pc's or laptops? thanks
Your channel is going to do very good. Keep up the great work brotha.
I really appreciate that. Thank you
Help! The dock and live controls will not appear no matter what I do and OBS will now only capture the left half of my screen.
Nice and detailed explanation
Great video, thanks. But keep getting message when hitting broadcast (streaming just defaults to broadcast option) - any solutions most welcome? I'm using mac.
mega bits not bytes, thanks for the info great video...
I feel like an idiot messing that up lol
Very informative and well presented, nicely done.
Have you covered streaming and recording at the same time on RUclips?
No. But thats a good point. Its tough on any system to stream and record at the same time tbh.
Great video I had to subscribe
And I just HAD to like and favorite your comment. Thank you.
good video ! something is happening with me when i press start streaming it says unable to fetch stream key but i connected the right way and nothing seems to work even if i use " custom " to paste a streaming key
I'm assuming this will work with my webcam on my Mac ? If so, I'm sure it's not the best quality but I'm taking baby steps. I'm a content creator and want to start live streaming more. I have a camera, I use for my content, but I think I'd have to buy more equipment in order to use it . I prefer not to buy anything extra until I experience live steaming enough to know if I want to get more elaborate while streaming . Your tutorial is one of the best I've seen . Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thank you and yes. Everything I did setting up OBS will work for the mac version of OBS.
I have other videos describing live streaming settings and how to setup livestream sources in detail so those may be helpful to you.
Take baby steps. Streaming is not for everyone and takes a lot of time and energy. You need to be comfortable talking to yourself for dozens of hours in the beginning because growth is very slow unless you already have a large audience.
No point in spending a lot of money for you to decide it isnt fun. Take your time and enjoy it. Its a marathon, not a sprint. I have had some amazing memories while streaming but also some very difficult times too.
@@creatorcology I totally agree that its not easy. I was speaking of not having to use a camera vs my built in cam on the Mac to get started. I did a Google search and I think ( if I comprehended correctly) I don't need anything except the built in cam on my Mac. It don't think I was clear the first time .
I am ok with talking in front of people but my big problem is I'm a perfectionist. I've live streamed only about 3-4 times . I didn't like it because no one showed up or maybe 5 people total on another one. As a perfectionist, I want the same quality to match when I create a video for my channel . Its usually poor lighting , choppy audio and no one shows up. This year I I want to fix that, but I don't want to go crazy on equipment , but have the minimum to be better than the past. Thanks for your reponse .
@@creatorcology I deleted the software because it didn't work, but seem to be running in the background somewhere on my Mac I can't live stream from my Mac now. I've tried searching for help on YT. No help thus far.
OBS works on mac for tons of people. Streaming from mac is suboptimal to begin with but people do it.
You will never have higher or as high of quality streams as recordings. Thats not how it works. Streams rely on internet speeds + hardware. Recordings rely on just hardware. Internet will always fluctuate as internet providers regularly throttle speeds at different times. And encoding both streams and recordings at the same time is incredibly taxing on a single computers system.
Mac OS is generally unfriendly to streaming applications. But OBS in particular has released tons of mac updates in the last 6 months and from I understand its pretty stable for beginners now.
I think you might be blaming the software when most likely there is another issue somewhere else in the workflow. Either way. Good luck to your streaming adventure. I hope you figure out a solution that works for you! Maybe try streamyard? Or an alternative?
@@creatorcology No the software has blocked things I used to be able to do that didn't have anything with streaming. Its weird, but just wanted to share. Its too much to type out and it has exhausted me to no end. It is just one of my regrets, but I found a work around until I can afford the time to do without my Mac to send it to Apple, which is hard because its like my car keys, I can't leave without it. Just sharing ...
Hi - I have a question. I have a variety of nature sounds and white noise videos that I have already published on my channel. If I wanted to live stream a pre recorded youtube video, how can I do that using OBS? Can I somehow browse to my RUclips video using OBS, or do I have to download my video from RUclips and save it on my local drive in order to use it as a "media source" from OBS? Hope my question makes sense. Since I would be live streaming a pre recorded RUclips video, I will not be using my camera or microphone, so what video settings would you recommend I use in OBS?
Hey brother great video, I plan on going live for the first time later today, but I got a bit confused when it came to the multiple GPU's, and determining which is best. My "GPU 0" is an Intel(R) UHD Graphics 360, while my "GPU 1" is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti with Max-Q Design, which is what allows me to run games on my laptop in the first place. I'm already assuming the NVIDIA is the better of the two, but could use the pointers either way. Thanks man
10000% the nvidia one is better. Make sure in the obssettings for the gpu field you put "1".
Basically, all laptops come with a "integrated gpu/cpu" combo. This means that it has a smaller barebones gpu attached to the cpu in order to do basic visual tasks.
But the Nvidia 1660ti, although not a strong gpu by todays standards, will be way more powerful than the intel gpu. The nvidia cards only job is to be a gpu and it lives by itself. Much like how an actual desktop gpu works. It is usually bigger than the integrated gpu so it can do more work.
Good luck on your live session! Dont be discouraged if no one shows up or if it takes a few tries to dial in your settings to your specific internet speed and hardware limitations. Just enjoy talking to yourself and if someone shows up then great! Took me 6 weeks before I made affiliate on Twitch. Took me over 6 months before I had 30 consistent viewers. And that was considered extremely fast at the time. Be patient with yourself. Upload youtube videos built using your streams and get some traffic to funnel back to your streams to make growth quicker.
You got this!
@@creatorcology Hell yeah thanks for the quick response
Awesome video, just one request - cut the music or keep it low.
Thanks for the feedback. Can you tell me why it bothered you?
@@creatorcology you're sharing your knowledge but more than your voice the bg music is coming up, so kinda distracting. End of the day, your video your wish, just shared my view as a viewer. Peace.
@@cryptomaniac7666 Thank you for the feedback!
just one question about the bitrate. I got about 100k as my answer to all the maths bit, so what should I set my bitrate to in OBS, if i've configured it for 60fps at 1080p?
So I have a Question: After Setting up OBS and Clicking LIVE STREAM. My Video plays fine but my Audio does not appear in the LIVE Stream but does play in my Headphones. I can't seem to find any help for this issue. I Love the In Depth explanation of the settings it really Helps
There is a lot of context thats missing. What are you playing on? What mic do you use? How do you have it all setup? What are your windows audio inputs and obs audio inputs set to? Etc...
I thought this was Ezra Miller at first. Great video!
Why you gotta do me like that 💀
@@creatorcology My bad bro. NO disrespect just my first thought when I clicked on the video. Really greta content brother.
@@thedestinationstation I'm just playing lol Thank you for the comment
Okay, out of all these guides and tutorials (and misinformation..) I’ve decided that you are the best, most trustworthy.. and.. da best! Sub-friggin-scribed man. Let’s take this thing to the mooooon! ☺️🕊️ (I’ll follow up with how it goes, thank you very very much)
Thank you for your kinds words and sub!
Reyot and teborne love from Canada bertulen
My video is 16:9 3840x2160 on base and output. My upload speed is 40mbps, what should my bitrate be then?
Is there a specific setting I need to turn on to get the other Encoder Settings or is it just my computer specs?
For context I don't have the Tuning Option nor Multipass mode ect.
2 things to try. Make sure you go up to the help tab at the top of OBS and select "check for update".
Then go back to the encoding settings section. Go up to the top bar. It may say simple or advanced.
If it says advanced, then go to the encoder option. Select h264 if its available.
Multipass mode and tuning should be visible if you did everything in order.
I’ve done all of this but when I open my manage broadcast button (3:08) it gives me me the error saying live streaming isn’t enabled even though when I click the live stream to go live I don’t get the timer. Whenever I click go live it tells me my webcam isn’t enabled what do I do to enable it? On my pc I don’t have it disabled.
❤❤❤❤
03:06 everything went well until this part were it says Live streaming is not enabled when it is hmmmm, I will figure it out I hope, great vid so far tho thank you
Remember, you need to go onto youtube and enable livestreaming and sit through the waiting period. Idk why they make people do that. They didnt use to.
@@creatorcology Thank you so much, that was okay I made a mistake and selected the wrong brand account soon as I di dthat it worked , and I watched the rest of your vid :)
i really help me this video thank you so much my friend!
Does changing streaming services change your stream and record settings?
Absolutely. Great question. I have videos detailing settings for Twitch and RUclips.
It also changes based on recording versus streaming.
For several years I have livestreamed a meditation class every 12 hours, but have little to show for it. Do you know of a course geared specifically for non-gaming livestreamers?
Hi there. At the moment (until I can get around to doing my own course), I would recommend EposVox's course. He covers loads of professional use cases and every detail imaginable. Bit overwhelming of a course (which is why I want to do a pared down version tbh) but its great at the same time.
Btw thats awesome you have been so consistent. Good work!
@@creatorcology I look forward to your paired down course. Thank you for getting back to me. I'll search for EposVox now 🙂
woah
For some reason I don't see create broadcast or create when it says create new broadcast
Make sure your OBS is up to date would be my best advice. Lots of features get added over time. Hit help and check for updates
it does let me save my broadcast setting theres no option to do it
Hi! I did as the video said, but it was blurring every time I moves while streaming (Icarus Game), but it's fine when i watched the reply.. could you help me? thank you!
I wish it were as simple as press button = fixed.
You would need to detail your settings fully, give me computer specs, internet speed, and I would need to look up that game to see what kind of codecs work best.
My general recommendation is to lower streaming bitrate if you are on wireless internet thats semi unreliable. If you are hooked in then maybe you need to try a different codec or encoder. Like h264, h265, x264.
Try a couple different games first and see how those look. If other games dont perform well then look at your stream from a different device or something to see how it truly looks to the viewer. If still blurry then you need to evaluate hardware. If hardware is solid then evaluate software. If software is solid then evaluate the game itself.
Another potential reason is if you are downscaling. Check video tab and make sure your resolutions for base and scaled canvas are the same.
@@creatorcology my computer specs amd ryzen 9 7900X3D, RAM 32G, Geforce RTX 4060ti, my internet upload 250Mbps.. even i tried to record, and the result are blurry too..
yes I have two gpu I dont know which one to use one says gpu 0 intel R uhd graphics the other one is gpu 1 NVidia Geforce RTX how do I know which one to use?
Use GPU 1. The intel uhd is the dedicated gpu thats combined with the cpu. Its weaker than the Nvidia stand alone gpu.
@@creatorcology okay I also notice it gets hot and the fan has been very loud today? is 68 c very hot?
Not sure on a laptop. On a desktop 68c would be fine but trending toward a bit warm.
I recommend some kind of laptop fan to sit it on.
@@creatorcology what about a cooling mat?
when I set up my stream in OBS and I set it to private and then I decide to send my stream to RUclips live. It’s still shows private. How do I get the stream live?
Not sure about the private part but you could schedule it and go into youtube manually and change it to to public if your having trouble with OBS changing it.
When I try to connect to my account, I don't see the account when I go to settings, after I pick a channel I can see my channel, but it's in vane. I don't understand why is showing old channels instead of latest ones. Can't clear cache.
Make sure its not auto logging in to the incorrect gmail or the gmail that was signed in first on the browser. Ive had it happen to me sometimes and accidentally chose the wrong email or chose a "manager" email instead of the channels actual email.
@@creatorcology it is just one account and is the correct one, i can see the other accounts, even a channel i deleted
0:46 but if you want to, you can use other ones
I set it to lower resolution the video on obs went out of bounds how do I fix it?
Right click the source and go to transform and hit fit to screen
source it mirrors obs only not the desktop behind obs . Can you advise on what I am doing wrong . Using laptop and 1 monitor to share screen . Shows the multiple screens of obs .Thanks
Trying to mirror laptop
What source did you put in? If you want to capture the whole screen hit the plus sign in source panel and select display capture.
If you want to get a certain application then you can do the same thing but pick a different option in the source options.
I would recommend using your monitor as an "extended screen" rather than a mirror. Then you can select the display capture source and choose the monitor instead of laptop and just move stuff over to the monitor.
@@creatorcology thanks so much and now I just need to figure out how to do the extended screen as you mentioned on the monitor . Great channel and any advice is greatly appreciated
@@Bluegrassman12 try looking in display settings and/or change display. In that menu there should be a drop down that allows you to choose the option extend displays.
@@creatorcology i will try that and thank you
@@creatorcology dang , can’t find display settings locations . Went into all the settings and nothing with what you reference . I probably just can’t find it. My drop down for display gives my primary monitor only
Please help. RUclips still says I’m not connected.
Hey, maybe you can be the last one to help me. No matter what I set up, I always have blur when I move and my camera is totally pixelated when I move around in the game. I've tried everything in the meantime. I have set the streamkey on RUclips manually to 1440p60fps with 13mbit, I have taken the Nvidia NVENC HECV. I used P5: good quality as the default setting and selected HLS instead of RTMP for RUclips. Nothing helps, what else can I do?
I have 44Mbit upload and an RTX 3080Ti
Hit me up in a twitter message. Send some pictures of your settings. I also run a 3080ti and have a 4k monitor though I dont know if I have ever streamed higher than 1080p because most people dont have internet speeds high enough to view 1440p.
But message me some context pictures or the OBS log and I can try to help.
@@creatorcology im really thankful, really. I tried 1080 yesterday and it looked like windows98 minecraft. Can i hit you up on Instagram or facebook? i really have no clue about all the settings.
Buddy????@@creatorcology
@@RazeN_Gaming I looked on twitter and dont see any message from you.
@@creatorcology do you have Instagram or Facebook?
i cant finde broadcast.... can you help me with this?
Is it possible you need to connect your obs account to youtube by signing in on the "stream" tab in settings?
i have over a 1M kpbs can i stream 8k 60 fps ?
I dont think there is a single service that lets you stream 8k yet. And if there is, I wouldnt have any experience in it lol

I'm planning on streaming palworld. how do I make my wifi faster like yours?
Are you plugged in via ethernet?
Really depends on service provider, location, and whether or not you are plugged in. Tbh 5.51mb upload speed is really bad for streaming. You need a decent upload speed to stream because you are sending (uploading) your stream data to twitch or youtube.
You may need to drop down to 720p 30fps in the video tab, hopefully your stream will be a bit more reliable.
@@creatorcology okay thank you ill try that setting I will try streaming palworld. we have xfinity. I dont have access to the ethernet my brother mostly uses it. I think I do have an ethernet plug in on this laptop. gigabyte 16 gb ram 4060 rtx intel i7
@@creatorcology what do I set the kbps at? I still have it in default settings?
@@CrazyGamer-tm2jj I spent a bit of time talking about bitrate based on internet speed in the video. I believe I linked YT's reccomendations also in the description and showed them on screen. I would check that again.
is it safe to give information of your youtube account to obs studio or twitch account?????? They will have athorization to delete/ alter youtube vedios
Never heard of anyone ever having a problem with it. Can you imagine the lawsuits?
Also just because you login to something through OBS doesnt mean the login details are stored there. Usually they are just used as an encryption check and not saved.
why did u start with "its really easy?"
but it did black screen :(
You are from romania with that internet speed.
If Romania is in the US then yes.
Hey Creatorcology! can you do a video explain how to share your screen and have it look like this. this guy is able to share his screen ( @ the10:15sec marker), it as a nice outline around him and the video he is sharing with the audience. Thanks in advance. much respect!!
ruclips.net/user/liveQd2s2VuWd4I?si=eBwLcWUnetf0CKXA
No problem. Until I can make a video (have been a bit swamped this year with client projects), the quick explanation (at least part of it), would be that he has is cropping, masking, and putting a border around his camera (I am doing something similar as you can see. He went for a rectangle box mask, and then he might have done the same for the screen capture source. He manually resized it then added a mask and border. The border can be made seperately. Everything for both the camera source and the display capture source can be grouped together with their effects and slid in using transitions. The globe in the background is just an animated overlay like the ones I have shown in my vids. Basicslly its just a video file on loop. Probably had it made on fiver or found it somewhere.
I know thats a lot to take in but what this guy did is not actually that hard and you can do it too..
Obviously I am assuming that this guy did a live stream. If this stuff was added in editing then thats a whole different but also not difficult process. I do think its a live stream though.
This is what I got at the website you recommended.
