Question / Help Two gaming pc's one stream

[Christer Steinsvik]

Im trying to find the best way to setup a game stream and recording with two gaming pc. I should specify since every search i do turns up results for a gaming pc and a streaming pc.


We are two gamers in the same room on the same LAN. I would like to stream game footage from both PC's. Let's say in PUBG we play duo and the OBS software streams 20 seconds from gamepc1 and auto switches to 20 seconds from gamepc2. at the same time streaming audio chat between the two players.

We have two highend gaming pc's and another lower spec pc for streaming if needed. And a 1 gig internet fiber based internet connection.

Hardware and setup tips needed please? Two capture cards? One card with two inputs? NGINX server?

Using one of the gaming PCs, one capture card is necessary. Just add your own "Game Capture" in the scene, then create another with the "Video Capture Device" of the said capture unit.

I haven't used the plugin myself, but try https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/automatic-scene-switching.48264/
