Question / Help 24 hour streaming

[Adams7evin]

Brief description

I have been using Wirecast to run my live music page on facebook for the past 6 months. I have just launched a 24/7 stream that comprises of a playlist of Mp3's from all our previous shows and a video for visuals. The problem I have found is Wirecast can be a bit buggy..... My continuous stream crashed last night. So i am looking for another streaming software to manage the 24/7 stream while I use Wirecast for my normal ones.

Questions

1. Is it possible to continuously stream to Facebook live on OBS like I can on Wirecast, if so then how?

2. Is it possible to stream a playlist of Mp3's on a random loop, if so how?

3. Can I play a visual at the same time, if so then how?

Thanks in advance for your insight. :)

1. Yes. Just let it run continuously. OBS doesn't stop you at a certain point.

2. Yes, iTunes, VLC, or your preferred audio player.

3. Window Capture source will capture the visual that you want displayed. If you had a custom preset of your own, it should work flawless, if you got visuals from Wirecast, then I am totally unsure (I've never tried or looked at wirecast before)
