20 OBS Tricks All Streamers Should Know!

[@mohakaoki7173]

Hello. 20:30 for start replay buffer with stream, there is a checkbox in Setting->General->Output-> Automatically start replay buffer when streaming. I have OBS 26.1.1. don't know there is such a checkbox in previous versions.

[@mindsetdsfwarzoneclips6945]

That replay buffer part for clips was worth watching this entire video. Thanks bro.

[@zoonal-gg]

I have been using OBS for 2 plus years. Still learned a couple things. Thank you!

[@ahajja]

I can now see the option to Automatically start replay buffer when streaming, it's under Settings -> General -> Output.

[@mindsetdsfwarzoneclips6945]

That replay buffer part was worth this whole video. Thanks bro!

[@IPv6Freely]

To go along with the scene nesting, you can do the same to groups. Apply the filter to the group and it won't screw up the original source. So, I always put my webcam in a group even if its the only item in the group so that I can add filters to the webcam without screwing it up in other scenes.

[@P1xelPerfect]

AND AND (you’re really gonna like this one lmao) source mirror. Makes an EXACT clone of whatever you’re mirroring without effecting the original source. So it effectively removes nesting (didn’t know about it at the time I made the video haha)

[@csrnibbler9912]

Great video bro. I have been watching OBS videos on KZbin for 2 days trying to find tips and tricks and your video had lots of stuff I had not yet seen. Well done.

[@MagicMadMan]

At 19:37, in Output we can see the option to automaticaly start the replay buffer when streaming. Awesome video, I learned a lot of things

[@daimaukr]

Thank you. I liked the most filters on scenes, and stinger transitions. good luck

[@Dabzzz]

That replay buffer setting is so awesome never knew that was a thing!

[@gilmannayeem4340]

Loved the first one, looking forward to trying this one out too.

[@LowDoughTech]

Disable preview was something I'd not thought about for saving system resources. Good tip!

[@bruckenpfeiler6550]

I rescpect the harris heller influence in thus Video. Very Well executed !! Great video

[@vladdziuba5510]

Cropping is something I was looking for a long time. Thanks, man!

[@johncampea]

This was really helpful

[@P1xelPerfect]

Glad I could help!

[@BunkBeazy]

@@P1xelPerfect Yo.. thats kinda crazy. Ive watched John Campea talk movies for years. To see him comment on your video is pretty damn surreal.

[@TheDre1955]

This my first time logging in with you, I’m old skool I’m in search for streaming for church services, you’re talking some advance stuff is there an OBS for dummies.so I can catch up.

[@timegamecolors]

Yes true 👍 helped in making videos of skull for me

[@stuartmccubbin932]

Just learning how to stream, this was super helpful cheers!

[@rob215x]

I'm new to OBS. I Recently watched a dozen videos and this was one of the most useful.

[@bear4922]

I've been working on my stream in OBS for a while now and you're the first person who talked about linking your account and docking twitch in OBS. Thank you sir, a thousand times, thank you.

[@davidbrioso2483]

yes, looks cool. not available on MAC OSx / OBS 26.0.2, or OBS 26.1.2 or even 25.0.8, guess I'll have to see on 27.0

[@CricutWithRoosabella]

Thank you for this love it!! ❤️ Do you have a video on camera setup for what you use?

[@EOVO]

I was expecting this guy to have hundreds of thousands of subs! Excellent content! Thanks a lot, easy sub :)

[@SuperJamesus]

the resting and distort doesn't seem to be working for me. in 2022 have the removed the feature of is there a setting that I am missing?. great video.. very helpful

[@felipeavella]

Phenomenal video, man, thank you so much for all the useful tips and tricks!

[@stevenclarkson3643]

This video is VERY much appreciated! I'm pretty new to streaming and OBS and my current setup requires me to use one laptop for content and stream. Your custom stream res settings have helped me immensely. Subbed!

[@ikeooosonata5400]

Wow. You're the best. I couldn't understand what you were saying but I just followed instructions. Thank you so much

[@aderitoarmandomazive6735]

You deserve youtube award of the year. TNice tutorials video truly nails it! Very well explained... The way you cut the bullsNice tutorialt and get straight to it..

[@AszullGames]

Dude this video is freaking awesome. I've been using OBS for a couple of years now and I have never noticed many of these let alone use them. I will be recommending this video to anyone wanting to look into useful features/tricks for OBS.

[@P1xelPerfect]

🙏🥺

[@cfmrocks]

This is so crazy good. Shared to my channel play list for future reference. Thanks for sharing

[@Brettspielblog]

Thanks! Already knew some of those tricks, but learned many!

[@acofficiel8152]

I searched for 2 days and I discovered you, you have the best audio stream tutorials all GG

[@dashingdancerplays8249]

Solid Video, completely changed my set up

[@stevecosio6]

Excellent video. LOVED the crop hack! By the way, it's the Option key on a Mac; Alt key on a PC.

[@TheNameIsToby]

Having been streaming for the past 3 years, I've come to learn quite a few of these tricks over time - but holy s*** do I wish I knew just half of them when I first started streaming! Great video !

[@IlyaZub]

Thank you! Cropping of the Webcam source is what I've looked for.

[@ilkkuPvP]

20:51 There actually is an option to automatically start replay buffer when streaming. You can find it in "Output" settings tab. Great video btw :D

[@NeophyteYT]

woah, I didnt expect to learn so much... I knew a couple of these tips but hiding and locking volume etc is super helpful and something I didnt realise! cheers mate :)

[@daneo617]

I like stacking things along the bottom panel and just hit the tab of the section I need it keeps everything really neat and organized cool tip's 👍🏼✌🏼

[@Neroda]

This is the video I needed to put my OBS on steroids. Gonna come back to this later and set my stream up properly!

[@thearkuhtekt]

This was freaking awesome. Thank you.

[@AuroraButterflyx]

Very helpful videos and shortcuts that I didn’t knew about.

[@jmshakhawat309]

can we put a small control window for screen recording and get notified for when its paused and started the recording

[@DCMXGaming]

Could you make a link to the transition effects and other stuff you used?

[@SohaibHasan]

It was super useful, thank you for this great video. Loved it.

[@MrjHimself]

0:36 voice crack made my day.

[@edcararceo196]

I enjoyed your tricks so much keep it up, helping us alot specially for the new streamers

[@quinnryquinnry434]

This video is very informative! Everything that you mentioned is helpful! Thanks for the tips and tricks mate!

[@shrutijain3080]

Thanks !! The outline around your photo is looking really nice How you have set up this?

[@jmyvideos]

Great OBS tips. Is there a way to share/stream a Zoom meeting with a friend (not participate in the Zoom meeting) while I am recording recording it using OBS?

[@MrRight-uv9vb]

you totally saved me with the shift and grab the image to move it how you want it. Been here for ages thinking how in the world obs don't have a feature to make the image fit

[@srajbalan]

Very good video presentation. Can you help me in obs set up to split video of the webcam and window capture video

[@theobgshow]

Thank you. Six months of learning in 23 minutes.

[@ZeroneSolutions]

I want to start using OBS for KZbin videos. Do you have a video of the type of computer you use for your streaming? If not can you make one? Thanks for this.

[@DarrahValentine]

This is so great thank you for this info I just started using OBS, this will really help a lot, could you please let me know what you use for your picture in picture and edging in this video face cam because I am a little confused in that section?..thank you

[@Skittlxs]

As a KZbin streamer with not too many high quality options for clipping, the replay buffer tip is a game changer. Great video!

[@hanspetterofficial9391]

Cool video. Quick question. The effect on the microphone doesent work with my headphones but on my computer speakers it works. Do u have any tips?

[@humamreis]

why whe i use photoshop in obs the mouse tool and right click tool dont be enable in screen this problem for toturial ?

[@xjones2087]

Awesome tutorial, thanks for posting. You sure like the word "actually".

[@IamKryptonite]

Settings>General>Output>second from the bottom for auto start replay buffer when stream starts :D

[@Temperjames]

Yeah I was surprised he hadnt seen this! Its invaluable

[@P1xelPerfect]

That’s why I mentioned it in the video I was like “I’m sure it’s here somewhere..haha”

[@Temperjames]

@@P1xelPerfect Great video anyway, dont want to seem ungrateful. You manage what i havent been able to in my videos, and that is to get to the point and not ramble on!

[@MattyC-mp3er]

Awesome info, cheers for making this. The Auto start replay Buffer (when streaming) is now in the general tab of version 27.1.3 Thinking of mapping it to a spare mouse button for quicker response time, as I have reflex speed of roadkill. Nice tutorial and info. Thanks again. Oh I just checked... it was already there look at 5:55 its in the general tab under the output section

[@SpecterSuits]

Thank you for this very informative and thorough video.

[@ValsReview]

These are really great tips helps a lot and many things I did not know thank you

[@Fortnite-pz4fs]

BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YO

[@GregMurrayEnt1]

Awesome Tutorial. I have been live streaming for about 6 months and this is the first time I've seen you. You really opened the doors to lots of new elements I was not aware of. Thank you!

[@alainschutz838]

Thanks a lot - your video is a Great start to soft soft. I'm onto it !

[@BBFaith-Channel]

One of the best videos I have seen on OBS. Very useful and informative. Well done

[@DannyHauger]

Fantastic walkthrough for this total newbie, very much appreciated, plus you're direct, clear, and demonstrative - awesome!

[@TheNetGuy]

Some of the best tips I’ve seen. Awesome stuff and will help my live streams, including tomorrow’s!

[@ramavalos]

This was super helpful I hate how I held myself back from watching this earlier lol

[@Lanasra]

Wow best video I have seen in a while. Thank you for Great tutorial

[@tacticalaffiliatehub7558]

Thanks for the video! question: I am a newbie at this and I am making tutorials and I want to switch from the screen computer screen to the camera. I want the camera to be on the edge when I am explaining something in the screen and I want the camera to take over the screen when I am talking to my audience... thanks in advance

[@threebrothers308]

screen in the top left, look at where it says program and click on where it says “aggressive te” and change it to “analog app 1 te”

[@crugg]

Another tip for fine tuning things: Right click > Transform > Edit transform... There you can put custom pixel values. You can check your camera's one and e.g. if it's 1000 pixels from the left, you can check the width of your border (let's say it's 20 pixels), you can put 1020 for your webcam for example. You can also do pixel perfect rotation, size, center point, cropping etc. there.

[@P1xelPerfect]

P1xelperfect you say? 🌚

[@scottabergermd]

Loved it. I am a retired doctor who wants to begin streaming about medical miracles, etc. Loved your show, and was wondering how to make that overlay which is the beautiful color changing frame surrounding your face cam? I guess it could be a mp4 file that is perfectly 9x16 plus a few pixels bigger than your face cam, and added as a group to the face cam?? Would love the file that is made from if you know. And also any place to help me set up our show and to learn more about this amazing new technology? Thanks new sub.

[@giftyunho]

2:55 The paperclip dude! O_O waaaaay back throw back lol got a like just for that but I’m sure this will be super helpful if I decide to stream one day

[@nevencuca1680]

Excellent tutorial man. Very detailed and articulate, easy to follow.. You are a natural teacher. Use that Skill.

[@TienTran-qd1ld]

Just bought soft soft! So excited to get started!!

[@9999cocobeach]

Thank you so much Bro for your excellent tips. God bless you :)

[@GrowingDownUnder]

I'll probably come back and watch this again when i'm smarter

[@GeraltOfRivia-333]

Me too ;p

[@VicariousxD]

you probably are more than smart enough. it's just that you are not familiar with the software.

[@GrowingDownUnder]

@@VicariousxD i'm familiar with the software been using it for a minute

[@EdwardKilner]

It can be difficult to find the info you need. Last night I was trying to find out which mic was giving audio, USB or webcam. Couldn’t find out in Audio Help file, so had to experiment. Eventually, I figured it out. Also found you could add labels. This is just the way it is with this class of program. Latest version is nicer than ever, well worth the effort to learn, I’m hoping. Good luck!

[@ValranoXTwitch]

Best OBS video I've seen on youtube. No one never went into details that much for that software. Thanks mate, best wishes from France.

[@Moefficial]

Not gone lie, tip 2 blew my mind! I appreciate you for making this video. Great job

[@abrahaoquadros9907]

Your work and explanations are top quality. Congrats.

[@francisaugustine7100]

Very generous of you. Thank you!

[@COVNT_Meesix]

If you are planning on using the feature at 19:00 you are better off looking for an mov format. This way, you can make IG reels, YT shorts look professional as you can put the same clip in twice with the behind one blurry without the black bezels mp4 and jpg give

[@CodyCasterline]

This was great! I didn't realize that "Connect Account" gave you so much more (Twitch integration) than just using the stream key. I wish they'd made that clear when doing the setup so I had these features weeks ago. :)

[@Aaron-tk1cv]

Nice tutorial, thanks! FYI: you can add filters to Source Groups, easier than adding to a scene. I use groups for my cams and stuff, and then I can crop and filter and whatever on different scenes and they won't affect each other.

[@TrollingHD12]

Really helpful but I want the transition pretty much like that nova but white how do I get that

[@DavidAmrod]

Hello. I was wondering how one can have text scroll up to a picture, then go above the picture and continue scrolling, without scrolling over the picture... so it would be like 2 scrolls, one spaced at the bottom, and one spaced above the picture that has the scrolling text from the bottom one handed off to it?

[@charolinecatanduanes5308]

it worked perfectly for me! :) thank you very much, sometimes the game starts freezing but it's okay

[@zacharywood9254]

This was super helpful and had so many features I didn't know about

[@AnnaLytical]

I cannot believe how incredibly useful this video was

[@rodneymoore8755]

Great video and informative. Just started using OBS. Really needed this! I have a question. I'm using OBS and will use rstream or streamyard. Both provide rtmp to include in obs. Can my stream be viewed on website without using 3rd party sources like Facebook and youtube?

[@sauempty]

Can you please help me know if there is any option of enabling gridlines (rule of thirds) in obs while recording a video?

[@MichaelDaniels]

Just subscribed to your channel. I really like the way you did your video. very helpful. Many of these I knew but very nice job.

[@Ceruleanmoonlight]

I've been using OBS for so long and still learned so much! Super helpful!

[@craigjustinegomez1601]

This is really helpful for me since I am just starting to stream. Big Help!

[@ramonbmovies]

Where do you get the "Live Preview" overlay with the basic animation?

[@RicardoJunqueira]

Awesome tips! Thank you for sharing.

[@Patch_58]

Holy crap that’s a lot of info. I’m saving this. Thanks dude.

[@dicodec]

Holy crap, you just helped me get a clear direction how to improve my stream 🙏 Thank you so much!

[@oakfig]

This is a great video. Is there an updated version?

[@sapphireglaceon]

is it possible to offer a link to get the transitions i did like the one you showed off
