Question / Help Authentication with 0.655 Beta

[rmepro]

I'm brand new to the forum, and I have a question about OBS 0.655 Beta. My streaming provider (Dacast) requires authentication when setting up the stream. OBS 0.11.4 has the option to add username and password fields, but I cannot seem to find it in 0.655 Beta version. Can someone tell me if this option is available in the Beta version, and if so, where can I find it when configuring a custom stream provider?

Thanks in advance.

That setting isn't exposed to the user interface because (I think, I may be wrong on this) the underlying code wasn't clean enough for the developers' liking.

Is there a reason you're going with 0.655 instead of multiplatform?

 

[rmepro]

Thanks, Harold. We've been using Multiplatform. But Beta has the ability to define k/b/s and the new opacity setting is something we like.

Is there a way to add the username/password in the profile? Something like:

pubUser=XXXXXX
pubPasswd=XXXXXX

or

Username=<XXXXX>
Password=<XXXXX>

Success! This works perfectly. I edited a custom profile and added 2 lines:

[Publish]
ReplayBufferSavePath=C:\Users\Lenovo\Videos\Replay-$T.flv
ReplayBufferLength=1
SavePath=C:\Users\Lenovo\Videos\.flv
SaveToFile=0
Delay=0
KeepRecording=0
AutoReconnectTimeout=10
AutoReconnect=1
LowLatencyMode=0
URL=rtmp:/xxxxxxxx.i.akamaientrypoint.net/Entrypoint
PlayPath=dclive_1_xxxx@xxxxxx
UserName=xxxxxxxx
Password=xxxxxxxx
ServiceFile=
Service=0
Mode=0

But Beta has the ability to define k/b/s

k/b/s is what exactly?

 

[rmepro]

Max bitrate in encoding.

 

[rmepro]

Are there issues with the Beta I don't know of?

 

[Harold]

Multiplatform has that ability (max bitrate settings).

The 0.655 and its line are no longer receiving major updates.
