Question / Help Wanting to stream on multiple platforms.

[brandon boren]

Is it possible to do this with just using OBS?

Wanting to stream on youtube's beta stream service, as well as twitch at the same time.

If it's possible, is there a guide on how to do so? Nothing popped up on google, so figured I'd ask on here.

Brandon, I have the same question and haven't found an answer yet...

Use nginx-rtmp to set up a repeater/replicator. You can do it on the same system you stream from, or even a cheap Raspberry Pi. It's somewhat technical, but simple once you get the service set up (just define multiple output destinations).

You can also use replication services, which are easier, but they are NOT recommended as you have to give them your stream keys. It's also not guaranteed that they'll pass along your stream unaltered (eg: they could insert ad overlays, or send out at a lower bitrate or with problematic settings).

I believe direct multi-service streaming is a planned feature for Studio, but is not implemented yet.
