Question / Help could not accesss the specified chanel when i try to stream?

[wainwright17]

hi, I literally got this 10 minutes ago. I'm a complete noob and would like some help. I don't know how to set my twitch up with OBS. Every time I try and stream it says it could not find the specified channel. Can any one show me how to set up my twitch with OBS? Thanks, and have a nice day!

You'll need to pull your Twitch stream key, and put it in the Settings->Broadcast Settings->Play Path/Stream Key field. You can get this from Twitch at http://www.twitch.tv/broadcast and click on the 'Show Key' button at the top right.

A TeamLiquid blurb on setup: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmes ... _id=372629
Here's the settings estimator (you can play with them to test, but this gives a decent starting point): https://obsproject.com/estimator

Beyond that, play with it. Google is your friend, and there are TONS of Guides here on the forums: http://obsproject.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=18

Time to settle down and get into some reading, or fiddle with the settings yourself. There are a lot that aren't obvious, so reading up even after you get something going can be a good idea. (Stuff like holding ALT to crop an on-screen asset, or ctrl (or is it shift?) to free-scale one)
