Hello,
I normally have been using X-Split for live streaming my gaming on Twitch.tv. I currently have the free version, which produces low quality in every way possible. I noticed that they are having a deal right now for a pretty cheap 3-months, which I was going to look into until a friend of mine told me to look into OBS. I have only heard positive things about it and have seen the results, and I am impressed considering it's in its Alpha phase while being free and supporting the same functionality and features.
Since I could not seem to get the software to work for me, my friend referred me to this link to go through and get it set up: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmes ... _id=372629
It seemed to be a good step by step process and explanation, yet I still was left with the same results.
Every time I try to start live streaming or preview live streams, I run into this error:
Could not create D3D10 device and swap chain. This error can happen for one of the following reasons:
1.) You're using an old or unsupported GPU (some laptop GPU's can also have this issue)
2.) You're running windows vista without the "Platform Update"
3.) I screwed something up somewhere
...well, for #1, I have Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 430 @ 2.27GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.36GHz
My friend told me that it should work fine with streaming especially on OBS...so I am confused as to why it would be #1
#2, I am running Windows 7...so it cannot be #2
#3, I would love to think that this wasn't this issue...I have gotten help from my friend who currently uses it and I went through the step by step process and explanation, read through the forum to see if anyone else has this issue...and I'm still stuck... so I guess, unfortunately, it could be #3 ... or maybe #4? None of the above HELP =P
If there is anyone that could try and run me through solutions to this so I do not have to go and buy X-Split instead, that would be WONDERFUL! ^_^
Thanks in advance
