If I watch a vertical live, it doesn't let me play it in the background. I can't keep the video going to listen while I pull up a browser and do other stuff on my phone. Ugh
Yea i did this last night i got 84 new subscribers and all i was doing was playing Minecraft bedwars with loud music playing in the background, i did this for 47 minutes and people were actually in my chat vibing i wasnt talking or anything just (Live, Bedwars, Loud Music)
Just tested this with my setup using restream as my horizontal stream feed and only streaming vertically to youtube and it worked perfectly. It doesn't solve the tiktok problem, but I just wanted to share this info in case it was useful
You may have to change ur kbs in obs settings! First know your upload speed! Then you take that number and do the math! Like he said if you only got 10mbps and your trying to run 6000kbps for two platforms your ganna have issues! I stream live on 3 platforms, I’m going to try 4 tomorrow with TikTok and see how it works out! Maybe you can do a video on how to do the math! Also I thought shorts had to be 60 seconds to be a short! So I’m definitely going to try this out! Don’t know I will have the bandwidth to be live on 5 platforms! But if I get this to work I’ll do shorts live and forget about the regular way! Thanks bro! Gave a like and follow!
One thing I didn’t see you do is move the microphone over to vertical source , do you have too if it’s linked ( with microphone already in horizontal source)
Nope! The sound is the same for both sides by default. You “can” separate the two by choosing a different audio track for the vertical stream in the settings for Aitum and then adjust audio tracks for sources in the Advanced Audio Properties. I do this actually and separate out Twitch and RUclips alerts so both sides get dedicated alerts only
I knew when I went live from my phone verticals was different in the algorithm compared to horizontal on streamlabs. I’ll definitely be testing this out today playing COD MW3
Do you have two separate obs opened to do both RUclips live? One obs for horizontal and another obs open for vertical? Or is there a way to go live on the shorts feed and horizontal feed through one obs?
Some more questions... If you are sending 2 streams , which one is shown on your channel page? Which one is sent out as notifications?.. if someone subscribes on the vertical stream , do they then get a notification for the horizontal next time ?... How then do they find the vertical version?
Great video! 2 questions: 1. Im assuming that Vertical Streaming watch time does not count for YPP, or does it? 2. Is there a VOD for vertical streams created by YT after stream ends?
@DarkenedCyrus that's actually huge! Thanks for the reply! I've built my subscriber base up using shorts so having the ability to reach them AND the engagement counting for YPP is a big bonus
hello, I also stream vertically for the shorts live feed, I have advertisements on every 6 minutes, just like with horizontal live streaming, but I don't watch anything at 70k, only after the live stream when the live stream has ended and is saved to my live From that moment on will I only get paid?
You will get paid for ads that ran during your vertical live stream, but what you set isn't a guarantee to run as all viewers might not view the ad depending on how long they have been on your live. For example, someone who just joined your live isn't going to instantly get an ad. That being said, ad RPM for vertical lives are no where near what you will see for horizontal streams.
does the watch time count towards monetization? I checked out several videos and no one mentions it, so i assume no one knows because that would be an obvious question to answer in this type of video?
When I start the vertical Stream , it appear in full not as a shorts format and that too in small screen left side keeping all other space Blank..can anyone help me with that...Thanks in advance
What’s fricken crazy is I started streaming vertical 2 weeks ago and thought I was crazy lmao because my friends were popping off on vertical for MONTHS 😂 Could you and I chat about it at some point? Discord, insta, phone, whatever is best for you
Sensai, I have a question. So, my lap top is handling streaming 4 horizontal streams well (Kick,Twitch,YT,Rumble). Would it handle 1 Vertical Stream to YT and 3 Horizontals to the other platforms?
Hi, can an actual real-time live stream have closed captioning on it? Or would this be a pre-recorded live stream that is premiered that can have closed captioning? Thanks.
Sorry I just found the problem lol at the bottom of the screen where you put in the stream key you have to press okay. I did that and it finally worked. On my laptop i couldn’t see it but I saw it on my steam deck
Got a question. I made a few vertical lives and made them public once ended but I couldn't see any comments once the live ended and got saved. How do I enable it so that it doesn't look like I'm crazy and talking to myself?
They aren't. That is one "downside" but there are so many upsides also. I'm doing an update video to this with the findings I've had after 10 vertical streams. Lets just say, it is something I am going to be continuing on my channel moving forward.
@@DarkenedCyrus oh, yeah for sure moving forward definitely gonna be doing it as well. I just thought there may be a way to link the two, but it’s OK. You can always just pin the horizontal link at the top of the stream. Streams on RUclips shorts gets way more traffic. redirecting the traffic is a good idea if we’re doing longform.
@@DarkenedCyrus yeah like restream just connects to RUclips by signing in, it doesn’t let you put the url and stream key onto restream 😭 also thank you for the speedy response, totally subbing ! 🙏
@@DarkenedCyrus yeah it said on. But I checked it after I finish stream. Next time I will check at the same time just to see. But do u get ads in your vertical stream? Because another thing is I also never get ads when I am watching shorts. And I don't have ad blocker... It's weird
Does somebody know why my vertical stream reaching 0 views and viewers? I streamed for 1.5 months, and 3 weeks before i always had 5-10 viewers, chat activity and active subcriptions. Now always 0\0\0... And this started when i uploaded video to YT and deleted most saved streams...
Only thing I see different is you streaming less than an hour on your last three lives. You aren't doing much commentary for people to jump in to when you are live and your audio from your latest Fortnite stream has scuffed audio where you can't hear the gameplay. Not saying these are the reasons, but some things I noticed when looking at your channel
@@DarkenedCyrus Thanks a lot for response. The poblem is that there is no viewers at all :) I mean, even if audio was normal or other stuff - nobody observes this. Sometimes i launch boosting via putting preview of stream on some TV show websites, but this doesn't help...
@@DarkenedCyrus I mean, that i didn't changed anything on my streams in field of settings or other stuff. Just after 1st May i didn't get any organic views and live viwers... I thought maybe it happened because i deleted all old stream saved videos from YT or idk..
@@DarkenedCyrus didn’t work for me in desktop so I downloaded obs and done it there also do you think watch time still counts towards monetisation or not?
The VOD becomes a regular livestream afterward, so you’ll get watch hours but only if you keep the stream public. I unlist the vertical streams personally, since they won’t be in the shorts feed after you end the livestream.
It may not look as good but I honestly watch more live vertical lives than landscape, call me weird but it seems like you’re closer to the creator lol. I found some really great creators from lives shorts

@DarkenedCyrus is yt shorts livestreaming accessable to everyone? i tried and i dont think it worked
So when I go live it’s just doing normal not on shorts
If I watch a vertical live, it doesn't let me play it in the background. I can't keep the video going to listen while I pull up a browser and do other stuff on my phone. Ugh
Yea i did this last night i got 84 new subscribers and all i was doing was playing Minecraft bedwars with loud music playing in the background, i did this for 47 minutes and people were actually in my chat vibing i wasnt talking or anything just (Live, Bedwars, Loud Music)
it doesnt work for me when i try to go live.. i copied the exact same settings you have and it just says error
Such a clear video, thank you for walking through all the steps and not skipping over info. Very helpful! 💌
you're a legend man, very straight forward
Thanks friend!
Do I need the vertical plugin to show up on the shorts feed? I only want to stream vertically.
I love doing it. Btw how do u do poll questions in vertical lives? That is key
Not sure if it’s built in like it is on TikTok. If I’m honest, I doubt it will be a feature anytime soon
Do you know if Kid’s channels can do vertical live ?
Worked wonders mate. Tried to do both youtube and tiktok at same time and everything lagged bad. I think tiktok live studio is cpu heavy
TikTok studio has also caused me problems to be honest and I have a very beefy PC and gigabit internet. Glad that was helpful!
Just tested this with my setup using restream as my horizontal stream feed and only streaming vertically to youtube and it worked perfectly. It doesn't solve the tiktok problem, but I just wanted to share this info in case it was useful

Hello! I was wondering if watch hours from vertical live streams count towards monetization watch hours?
it does.
Coming in clutch as always!
I got lost at create 2 stream Keys how? Once I do vertical how do I create another without messing up the one I just made
thank you brother 😭😭🙏🙏 great guide
One thing I didn’t see you do is move the microphone over to vertical source , do you have too if it’s linked ( with microphone already in horizontal source)
Nope! The sound is the same for both sides by default.

Do you have two separate obs opened to do both RUclips live? One obs for horizontal and another obs open for vertical? Or is there a way to go live on the shorts feed and horizontal feed through one obs?
Nope! In this video, I used the Aitum Vertical Plugin to do both in the same OBS program
So does going live on your phone make it automatically vertical?
Some more questions... If you are sending 2 streams , which one is shown on your channel page? Which one is sent out as notifications?.. if someone subscribes on the vertical stream , do they then get a notification for the horizontal next time ?... How then do they find the vertical version?
What app should I use on mobile for this? There are multiple OBS apps
Cqn you use with streamlabs obs
Great video! 2 questions: 1. Im assuming that Vertical Streaming watch time does not count for YPP, or does it? 2. Is there a VOD for vertical streams created by YT after stream ends?
Totally does and is treated like a normal stream. You have to leave the VOD public for it to count towards YPP
@DarkenedCyrus that's actually huge! Thanks for the reply! I've built my subscriber base up using shorts so having the ability to reach them AND the engagement counting for YPP is a big bonus
Can u use stream yard or just obs
Can you change the resolution to vertical in Streamyard? I’d so, then yes!
Stream yard has a vertical live function
So what did u mean stream vertical and sideways at the same time. 2 dif places? Like yt and tt?
@@DarkenedCyruslook bro i been here b4 asking about stream yard
Can you make one for prisim live
Appreciate the video. I was on chat with youtube today and they couldnt answer this hahha
Can I use the backup RUclips server? Only my vertical stream is going 🤔
Sure? No reason you can’t. Can’t do vertical to one and horizontal to the other as it will still be the same stream key, which won’t work.
This will create 2 separate chat rooms correct?.. so if you say, only have 1 mod , they would have to be on both streams simultaneously?
hello, I also stream vertically for the shorts live feed, I have advertisements on every 6 minutes, just like with horizontal live streaming, but I don't watch anything at 70k, only after the live stream when the live stream has ended and is saved to my live From that moment on will I only get paid?

Definitely going to try this
Totally!
does the watch time count towards monetization? I checked out several videos and no one mentions it, so i assume no one knows because that would be an obvious question to answer in this type of video?
100% does.
everytime i hit stream all vertical outputs it freezes n crashes my obs instantly
so once you setupi the stream keys for both , you dont need to keep changing them every time you go live correct?
Nope! You will need to schedule the vertical stream to use the stream key and to have a title/thumbnail if using aitum to stream it.
@@DarkenedCyrus and the regular horizontal stream is just normal, you just click go live like normal?
When I start the vertical Stream , it appear in full not as a shorts format and that too in small screen left side keeping all other space Blank..can anyone help me with that...Thanks in advance
Is it taxing on proformance? If ur playing fps games? Great vid
More exposure on vertical lives worked fine until 2 weeks ago, now, exposure has plummeted last 2 weeks
What’s fricken crazy is I started streaming vertical 2 weeks ago and thought I was crazy lmao because my friends were popping off on vertical for MONTHS 😂
Could you and I chat about it at some point? Discord, insta, phone, whatever is best for you
THANK YOU FOR THE GUIDE
At first I saw the 10 min guide and thought OH BROTHER but it was all VERY informative
Have a good one dude!
You’re welcome, and thank you!
Sensai, I have a question. So, my lap top is handling streaming 4 horizontal streams well (Kick,Twitch,YT,Rumble). Would it handle 1 Vertical Stream to YT and 3 Horizontals to the other platforms?
As long as the bitrate is similar, 100% Padawan
It's said that this can get you more reach. Is it true?
whén i do it says scedued and i cant live stream it
Why my vertical stream doesnt count as shorts live? Can anyone help me?
Hi, can an actual real-time live stream have closed captioning on it? Or would this be a pre-recorded live stream that is premiered that can have closed captioning? Thanks.
Yes. RUclips supports CC on low and normal latency options (not on ultra low latency)
how do you fix No output server in OBS?
Following
Sorry I just found the problem lol at the bottom of the screen where you put in the stream key you have to press okay. I did that and it finally worked. On my laptop i couldn’t see it but I saw it on my steam deck
Ok guys its true......
i got 3 times more views streaming Vertically than my most viewed stream
I cant get it I had it and it diseapeared and I cant get it back
I legit get zero views every time lol on my gaming channel smh
My last stream I streamed for an hour with zero views 😵💫
Got a question. I made a few vertical lives and made them public once ended but I couldn't see any comments once the live ended and got saved. How do I enable it so that it doesn't look like I'm crazy and talking to myself?
The messages when live don’t count as comments. Turn on live replay and anyone can see the chat from the live relay function.
@@DarkenedCyrus where do I turn that on?
This is the best video showing step by step and was very very understandable!!! Thank you!!! And God bless you, in Jesus name
I appreciate it!
I need to figure out to do this with my PS5
Any Mac users using this. im having issues even downloading
The plugin does work on Mac. Just confirmed on their website. Just make sure you are installing on a version of OBS that is 29+
@@DarkenedCyrus can I use this in streamlabsobs?
great job thanks
Thanks!
But, are the videos linked? I want to use the traffic of shorts to bring people into the horz video. I am thinking they are not linked as one video.
They aren't. That is one "downside" but there are so many upsides also. I'm doing an update video to this with the findings I've had after 10 vertical streams. Lets just say, it is something I am going to be continuing on my channel moving forward.

Thanks for the great info! I had been wondering how to set this up for vertical with a stream key. Very helpful
Love this!
perfect
What if your using restream ? How does restream pick up the aitum vertical stream ?
It won't convert horizontal to vertical if that is what you are asking. You'd use aitum to just stream to RUclips Vertical
@@DarkenedCyrus yeah like restream just connects to RUclips by signing in, it doesn’t let you put the url and stream key onto restream 😭 also thank you for the speedy response, totally subbing ! 🙏
Thank you bunches
Is it possible to go live vertically if you are streaming straight from your console like the PS5?
As of right now, no. There isn’t an easy solution for this. Maybe soon though as some companies are thinking about this!
@@DarkenedCyrus thanks for you input and dropped a sub
i installed it yesterday and its disappeared from my obs today
Go to Docks and click the vertical docks to bring them back
Hello how can I live stream vertically when I am on ps4 ?
You'd need more than just a PS4. You'd need a capture card and a PC of sort.
The problem is the monetization.. I am not getting any ads in my vertical stream. Any idea why?
This might sound harsh, but did you enable them? I have to check on this every time I stream as it turns off

Thanks! :D

could you also go live on twitch playing games ?
Yes! I’ll be doing another video on this soon
@@DarkenedCyrus I might try it during the week.
Can anyone tell me how to stream a vertical live from my ps4?
Unfortunately you cant
Dang, not even with a capture card
@EliBricks_YT you totally can with a capture card, but not a give on the console
I dont even know how to watch a vertical live on RUclips?
In the shorts feed. To view your live in the shorts feed, go to your channel page and click the live when you are live
Hadir bang
I REFUSE to ever watch a vertical RUclips video!!!!
Vertical streaming sucks, it's look horrible. I don't understand why people does it
1k subs, donations, and almost 40k views from 14 vertical streams. That’s why people do it!
It may not look as good but I honestly watch more live vertical lives than landscape, call me weird but it seems like you’re closer to the creator lol. I found some really great creators from lives shorts
I mean twitch sucks as a platform for everyone yet it's the number 1 streaming platform. I don't think 1 person opinion matters in this case.
