Question / Help 2 PC's - only 1 streaming at a time - 1 profile for both

[Shawn Riley]

Hey Guys,

So i have 2 systems in my house - my main desktop that i play all my games on that I stream with and another in the living room that i stream my consoles on.

Is there anyway to make a local profile on my network that BOTH systems can share a single profile - instead of me creating two profiles for each system.

This will keep me from having to go back and forth creating scenes and blah blah. Is this possible? - right now the living room PC is down for maintenance and should be up soon once i get the new case and mobo in. Going from a FullATX to a microATX.

Technically, you could symlink the %appdata%\obs-studio folder to a network location, but I am not sure what kinds of issues might arise from doing that.Otherwise, you can just use the import/export features from the Profile and Scene Collection menus

Yeah I I've been doing the import/export thing - just becomes a hassle after a bit when creating new scenes for all kinds of games. I may try to set that as a shared folder among my network and try to set that as the default loading location for information in the other systems OBS install.
