Question / Help Multi-Cam Set-up With OBS And YouTube Live

[Devin Manky]

Hi there,

I'm trying to take multiple separate IP camera feeds and run them into OBS and then out to YouTube Live. What I am hoping for a final project is the YouTube live page and then you can use the pop up menu in YouTube to select different cameras and the main view will switch.

Can't quite seem to figure out how to do it. I can stream two feeds and then when I switch them in OBS the livestream changes views but how can I have the end user use YouTube to select which camera they want to be viewing?

Thanks!

Devin

You need to run a seperate OBS Instance with it's own streamkey(youtube will show it when you setup the second camera) for the second camera. But you will need double the encoding cpu power and upload speed.
