Question / Help OBS - Switching PC's

[kokoboy]

Hey guys!

I have 2 PC's connected via LAN and I want to stream from both in the same time. At some point during the game I want to switch between those two PC's so players on the stream see what's going on in the other side aswell. Can OBS do this for me?

If not, how can I do this without too many costs and effort?

Any answer is highly appreciated! Thanks.

If you use a capture card to capture the computers' output, that would be the best solution.

Hey dodgepong,

Thank you for your quick answer! I was pretty amazed when I saw it.
The game I want to stream is "World of Tanks". The game can be streamed properly only if you join with an account in TEAM 1 and with a second account in TEAM 2 so you know what every team is doing. The game client cannot be opened twice.

How can I stream this without using 2 PC's or a capture card?
I know a capture card is mainly used to get the "heat" from the PC shoulders, so I can stream in high quality. That's not I'm looking for here...

Thanks!

If you don't want to use a capture card, there's not really a good way to do it so that the game is in sync. You could stream one computer to another using an RTMP server, but that will incur several seconds of delay.
