Switch stream service without having to re-login?

[xKiichan]

I switch between Twitch & Youtube, and sometimes it gets a bit tiring having to log back in everytime. Is there a way to make this faster/more seamless, or at the very least open the login popup window using the browser or something where I'm already logged in (and therefore don't have to retype everything)?

I don't log in. I use the stream key instead. So I don't have the other problems either, that people report about the login being funky. Just have a persistent stream set up on YouTube - no scheduling, just there - and start throwing data at it when I'm ready to go. Stop the data, and it times out, ends that stream, and resets to be ready for the next one. The stream information is entered on the website, not in OBS, and it's remembered on the website, not OBS.

The generic URL and that key are all that's needed, and both are included in the Profile. Change that, and you're streaming to somewhere else.

I'm only on YouTube, so I can only comment on that. Don't know if Twitch works the same way or not.

Use separate profiles in the profiles menu. You don't need to enter a stream key, and you don't need to re log in every time you switch profiles.

Omg I didn't know that, I only used it to change output resolution! It works, thank you so much!!
