Question / Help Using OBS with DaCast

I'v nevered heared of dacast but it supports rtmp.
Set obs to custom to use rtmp. Look for the rtmp adress to you channel. It should be somewhere in your account management i guess.
How you'd enter the password is another question. Doesn't dacast have a forum for questions like this?
 
Hi,

I'm not sure if the OP is still looking for a solution for streaming to DaCast, but I was able to find some help through this post https://jp9000.github.io/OBS/general/auth.html.

My solution is a little different from the one suggested in the post, I'll outline what I did and hope it points other people in the correct direction for their own situations. I'm using the 64bit multi-platform version on win7.

I created a new profile within OBS called Dacast, you can duplicate one of your existing profiles if you want. I then found the basic.ini file within my DaCast profile folder, on my system it was located in C:\Users%Appdata%\Roaming\obs-studio\basic\profiles\Dacast

Open the basic.ini file and add the following entry at the end of the file:

[Publish]
UserName= <enter_user_name_here>
Password= <enter_user_password_here>

*Replace the enter username and password with the real values received from DaCast

After this, restart OBS and hit the start streaming.

Hope this helps someone out there.
