The best part of this video is the very beginning where you showcase that a 720p camera, in a streaming setting, can look just as good as 4K. People need to learn that more pixels do not necessarily equate better image quality.

@stroiman.development 4 ай бұрын

Hey, as a serious hobby photographer, I will point out one minor incorrect information. The bigger sensor of mirrorless does not necessarily give better colors. But they operate better under low light. So if you operate in a dark room, then yes, it will be a significant improvement if you full-screen the web cam. But if you have a well lit room, or only have a cropped image, it will not make a noticeable difference. The quality of the color (if you have enough light) depends more on software than the sensor, as the sensor (even for professionally grade cameras) produce a boring flat image, and you need to add contrast in software for the image to look good. But another property of bigger sensor cameras is that you can get a more blurred background, making the image less cluttered, as you stand out from the background. An effect often desired in portraits that modern smartphones tries to simulate it in software, particularly if you choose portrait mode. The bigger the aperture in the lens (lower f-number, longer focal length), the more blurry the background gets, making you stand out more in the image (but also requires focus to be more precise for you to be in focus)

If you have an iPhone and a Mac, the OS uses the camera automatically without any software. OBS recognizes the iPhone's continuity camera and it looks amazing. An added benefit is that the camera feed will ALWAYS be level, no matter how you position the phone.

Loving this series already man. Started streaming a few months back and there is still so much to learn!!

@JerridFoiles 5 ай бұрын

I stream multiple angles, but I don't clutter up my scene with said angles. I recommend the Source Switcher plug-in. Kind of the same idea as Scene Switcher, but you don't need a ton of scenes in your OBS. You can also program it to choose sources at random. Makes it feel like an editor is switching angles in real time.

So glad you mentioned exposure! That hack made my C920 nearly indistinguishable from a Brio 4K. I will add that for more brightness after turning down the exposure, I make my lights brighter rather than turning on brightness in the settings.

I switched to a Sony ZE-10 as a webcam 1 year ago, and the quality, control and reliability are way better than any usual webcams. I use it with the sigma 16mm f1,4 and its autofocus, bokeh and low light performance is really awesome!

@JustAnotherYou2ber Ай бұрын

ZE-10? Or ZV-E10? Can't find the ZE-10. I do read the ZV-E10 to has quite some shortcomings. But It also depends on how (and for what) you us it.

Do they protect themselves and turn off themselves? 4. How to ensure that the video settings in OBS are preserved and do not have to be touched every time the program is opened again?

Helpful webcam intro (and reminder for those who watch your stuff regularly!) thanks. For the microphones: I'm struggling to find a shotgun or super-cardioid that I can use as a set-and-forget out-of-shot streaming mic. Those I've tried (AT875R, NGT4+, NT5, E614) sound boxy even just 2 feet away and are really very little better than just putting my current PodMic up there and turning up the gain. FYI: My room is small, but is pretty well sound treated with sound clouds and whatnot. Also, they all - even the shotgun ones - pick up my quiet keyboard and mouse clicks even though they are pointed at my head. Am I trying for something that is just not possible? Does it require a lot of money? To be clear, I'm very happy with the sound of getting close up and cuddly with my PodMic, but would love to not have to be constantly trying to stay 'on mic' when I'm using multiple monitors, etc. I realise I'm probably late on feeding into your next vid, so I'll hope you cover some of this anyway! :) Thanks

I have a question about streaming consoles. Is there any capture device/method that lets you stream the console via obs/discord but also still allows you to use the console alone without turning on the PC? I wanna be able to play without wasting the extra electricity when im not streaming or with friends I use a generic capture card from amazon that functionally works the same as an Elgato HD60, with the HDMI in and output, and the USB between it and the PC, but if I wanted to play the PS5 without being on my PC I had to unplug the capture card and move wires around to play but i'm looking around to see if I can avoid doing that so much. I wanted to try enabling my motherboard to keep USB power on while still being powered off but my motherboard doesnt have that feature apparently...

@Revell25 5 ай бұрын

Maybe this will be covered under mics but it’s prob I’m a newbie but I got that nice 5 sec delay echo starting and could not figure it out for the life of me. Granted that was with a rodecaster duo and as a beginner streamer for just gaming I really didn’t need all the extras it had plus I have smart lighting so a stream deck plus with a simple audio interface took its place. My mic can be XLR or usb but it always sounds real quiet and I’m guessing the interface doesn’t have the power like the Duo did. But please if you can go over the mix output for each app (total output, mic, discord, game volume, music, etc. ) And then eventually how to record/ make clips for your own shorts separate voice from it. Thanks! Loving the series idea

Great video! I didn't learn a lot as you've taught me well in previous videos but it was incredibly informative and will be a great resource for people wanting to upgrade or start out w' streaming! Also, gotta shoutout GoPro cameras as cheap options. I still use my refurbished Hero 3+ for most things (don't stream much atm but use it weekly for gaming stuff with the family) and the image quality is still really good. You are limited on the options in OBS for adjusting the image (no gain adjustment etc) but it still looks fantastic. Mine cost me, like, £70 refurb'd? Also rocking an Amazon special £10-£15 HDMI capture card. My setup is at least 2-3 years old, hasn't failed me yet. Recommend trying it! Lookin' forward to your mic vid! Again, 'cos of your recommendations previously, I am still using my Elgato Wave 1. LOVE this thing. Will never go back to headset mics ever again. Also looks amazing on work Teams calls (I use my home setup for my WFH job, pretty slick) so ye, bonus props for that! ! ! Hope you and the family are well my dude. Take it easy, ciao!

Are you using two webcams on the same PC? I've found that using two webcams on a USB Hub doesn't work. In addition, plugging multiple camers into the back of my PC doesn't work. I ended up having one cam on my USB hub, and the other to the Front USB port of my PC. I was wondering if there was a fix to this?
