in #dlive7 years ago

Hello all steemians today as you can see in the title were going to be talking about settings for Dlive and streaming and getting setup.Lets get to it.

1.Make a Dlive account- https://dlive.io/ when you get to the site click on Create Account and make a account.

2.Download Obs-https://obsproject.com/-Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) is a free and open-source streaming and recording program maintained by the OBS Project. You will be using obs with Dlive.

After downloading obs make sure to run it admin mode,Sometimes it will act goofy and not act right if not ran in Admin mode on pc. Click on settings, Click on Output OBS-Studio_Output_Settings.png
So right now my settings:
I use 2500 bitrate
320 Audio bitrate
Encoder i use nvadia- i use nvadia instead of x264. If you don't know the difference X264 uses your cpu on stream nvadia would use the gpu.

NOW Click on the Video tab.

Out-scale Resolution 1280x720 - This means what other people will see the size your streaming at on their monitor anything below is really bad quality imo. If you have a core i7 though you most likely can stream 1920x1080p
FPS-I do 60 but if your pc isn't the strongest put it to 30. It wont make to much of a difference.

Now we need to setup the Streaming keys,This is for when when you click on obs to go live people are able to watch it on any device.
You need to login to dlives website, then go to https://www.dlive.io/#/go-live/info 032ec491b0b024cb0e666928513ea7c1.png
click file in the top left hand corner of obs.
Click settings then go to stream tab
Stream types needs to be turned to custom on OBS
Copy all the credentials from the dlive info page then hit apply below.

Once you do your scenes on obs,The streaming settings,Streaming keys making sure you copied the right keys from Dlive to Obs and fill in all your information about your stream.

You will see start streaming on Dlive page your going to click that and wait a few seconds i usually wait until it says don't forget to start obs and than you start obs and it should work.
If it keeps failing to connect to server and you know you put the streaming keys in 100 percent right after you click start on Dlive. Just spam the start streaming on obs and it should work.
Your Done.

ty so much man means a lot to me

Great help, thank you for sharing! I want to begin streaming on my Switch soon.

thank you very much my man means a lot

Good stuff!

Also, if you use xsplit like me, you can use custom RTMP to set up the same thing. You'll just need to make sure you include the RTMP URL in addition to the stream key.

oh okie see i did not know. Do you like xsplit?

It really boils down to personal opinion. I think OBS is a great app, it's just not the right app for me. I find xsplit to be more intrude for my tastes.

Intuitive. Damn auto correct, I try and make a decent post, only to have it ruined by my phone!

Blargh! :P

Nice work mate. Very clear and concise!

thank you very very much

Thank you so much!! This helped a ton!
Saved me a bunch of time from having to go and look it up :D

np my man ==) thank you for taking the time to read it

Nice tutorial. It's a shame that my laptop is too shitty to stream :D

thank you so much
