So when I am streaming on twitch people on android and computers can watch me fine but people using the iPhone app or on bowser on the iPhone cant watch me unless they have the availability to turn down my resolution but the problem is that's not always available and I have a lot of people who...

I was trying one of the filters on my microphone I believe it was the VST option, mine works with Fruity Loops Studio so I was testing what it could do and it worked for a minute but eventually just crashed. Now OBS will not launch without crashing and if I try to open several times where it...

Everything was great, although did have the occasional issue with the alerts deciding not to play audio; but those were easy fixes. Now everything has changed and nothing works. I think the biggest change I've made to OBS was when I changed from Software encoding to Hardware encoding because my...

Hello everybody! Let me try to nail this down as concisely as I can, because this had been a long-running stream of issues for me. I decided to start streaming/recording videos. Downloaded OBS and in testing initially everything was fine. When I went to do an actual stream, everything lagged...

Using a HD60 S+ with a "GodSpin" 3.1-3.2 USB C to USB C cable. The Capture Card shows up in the "Video Capture Device" option but still my screen is black. There is a small red square in the top left corner of the screen, when you unlock the source. I try to move it and it disappears. **NEED...

Hey everyone, I'm streaming to a site that gave me a weird URL and Streamkey, Im trying to figure out how to get my url and key out of it. I don't want to post the whole thing in this forum, but I'll add a portion of both. Does anyone know how OBS parses this for the key so I can populate it...

When I started trying to record with OBS this week, I have been having issues that I haven't had for the past year I have been using OBS. When I record a specific window with game capture, the window is upside down. I figured that just a simple rotate and flip would fix the issue, but the cursor...

My issue is when I'm streaming from my capture card, my viewers cant hear my friend and I talking through discord. So either they hear the game play from my capture card and no one talking or they hear us talking but no game audio. How can I fix this so my viewers can hear both? Thanks,

I cannot figure out why my recordings are coming up so extremely choppy. I have game DVR disabled and other windows gaming related features. I have tried lowering to quality. Should I use a different recording program? [Video](https://youtu.be/fXKdOT9Uwv8)...

This needs to be upvoted because it took me half an hour to find the answer, it needs to take less time for others. Do you want to stream to Twitch and YouTube at the same time? You can't. Sorry to say this but it's not possible. At the moment streaming to Twitch and YouTube at the same time...

Hello, I could really use some help troubleshooting the VLC source in OBS. I'm looping a YouTube playlist via a VLC network stream. After about an hour the stream freezes and requires me to remove the VLC source to kick back on. I've been playing around with the settings in VLC (v 3.0.2 64bit)...

I'm going to try my hardest to make this simple for you gurus reading this. <3 I just bought a gaming PC the other day, Intel i7 3.6ghz 16gb ram and Nvidia Geforce 1060 3gig basic specs. Whenever i start stream through OBS to my Twitch account, every minute or 2, i get a notification that it...
