Everything works fine with OBS except several websites won't recognize it as a camera. It just won't show up. I've added the stream code and done all of that in OBS, but it still won't show up as a camera.
 
OBS is designed to stream directly to RTMP servers (such as the ones provided by Justin/Twitch), not to work as a virtual webcam. While such functionality is planned to be implemented at some point, it is currently not available.
 
If you are unfamiliar with how streaming without a virtual webcam works, I recommend you read some of the guides available on this forum, such as the official quick start guide, available here: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=410

I set up the stream key like it said, then after that shouldn't it show up as a camera in video setup?
 
No, OBS does not work as a virtual camera, you need to stream directly to the RTMP servers. After you've filled in your key, just press start streaming and your channel should go live. You do not need to use the flash broadcasting app.
