Fast and Cheap Ways to Livestream Your Church Service THIS SUNDAY

[@charambas]

Ummm, this is amazing, incredible. May the Lord preserve you for more Kingdom service.

[@greatermountpilgrimvm1975]

Great video, churches around the world had to make a quick live stream set up!! You are a blessing!! The Gospel is reaching the unreachable now!! Romans 8:28 ALL THINGS

[@threestreamsworship]

This is the best video out there to talk about setting up live stream. I found it a month too late, but it's quick and no nonsense. Good work.

[@golfvilla2]

I am a minister for a very small church and have had my hands full trying to get our live stream working for worship services as well as conferencing for my weekly Bible discussions. I am a former IS person and also a web guy so I feel right at home with the technology. The audio/video is a different story. I have watched hours and hours of KZbin videos and this video has been the most helpful for live stream video information!!! Thank you so much! You answered some very important questions I had.

[@Schlissel]

Wonderful to do this; kind, gracious, clear, thorough, and done in love for the sake of our Savior. Thank you much.

[@joshuabrittain9177]

Big help, great video. God bless you

[@lorimast]

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! We have a small church plant, and have been using Zoom. We want to continue this for some new people who have joined us from farther away after we get back together. This will help me get this set up! Thank you so much!!!

[@imhisapple1105]

Thank you! I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm trying to figure this out for my church by myself and it's rough but I believe that I'll be able to do this with this video.

[@kuhundachilikima]

Thank you so much, this has been helpful.

[@williamnarcisse6917]

This was technical for a beginner but your precise and enthusiastic teaching made it palatable, I also realized at the end of the video that the ambient music helped alot too haha.... thank you and God bless

[@ShawnSimmonsSpeaker]

This video was very informative! Thank you!!!

[@OrlandoExecVilla]

First class video. Technical - but clear with logical explanations. Thanks very much!

[@jimwilliams8821]

Ours is using a basic ASUS laptop, with no inbound inputs. We're using the laptop camera for video, and a Zoom H5 to throughput and mix the audio, with a JBL small box speaker to feed audio to it. We are using the pastor's KZbin channel.

[@danl7944]

We use a ATEM blackmagic mini Pro for our church. The usb exit goes in the computer which is connected through Livstream studio 6 to the internet. The audio signal comes to Mic 1 of ATEM from the mixer Yamaha TF3.

[@kpogodelali5956]

so much God in you and your speech. God bless u.

[@kristylim6884]

Thanks for sharing this! May the Lord bless you and your church!

[@mannymilitar]

Hi brother, Thanks for sharing this very helpful procedure for setting up Livestream for our church. This is our Time, declaring the LOVE of God for all the nations. God bless you and more power. Manny from The Refiner's Fire

[@sebastianveron5188]

Una buena propuesta nunca deja de ser intrtesante. Compartimos.

[@RovieKizola]

omg Godddd the setup of this video is superb i had to comment what gear did you use for it

[@scenicviewbaptistchurch9943]

Thanks for your concern for our smaller churches who don't have the technical expertise we would like to make live streaming easier. A couple of issues we are dealing with: (1) We are using a Canon Vixia HF G21 camera and a ClearClick Video Capture Stick. We also used a Scarlett interface between the mixer and the laptop. Last Sunday we used Zoom conferencing software, but the video and audio are out of sync by about .5 second. How can we get them synced? (2) We had originally taken a feed from the mixer and fed it into the camera's mic jack. The video and audio record perfectly on the SD card, but the audio will not feed to Facebook. I am the pastor, and unfortunately I am the most tech-savvy person in our church. I have invested way too many hours in this endeavor that I need to spend on other areas of ministry, so allow me to thank you in advance for any suggestions and ideas. Blessings to you.

[@romanopetersen900]

You have such a clear voice and you made it simple even for beginners like myself Thank You all the way from South Africa. Im working with no budget as we stand but i believe i need to make a start and see what i can put out there with the resources I have God bless stay safe all

[@clarenceanuran3937]

Thank you so much bro! This is so easy to understand. This will be a big help for our church, for better live streaming. Godbless! Greetings from Philippines!

[@MrHardrock]

Thank you sir!!! Very very nice presentation quick and easy to understand if you really need to do this

[@KeithWilsonVideo]

Some churches I work for want to stream for no other reasons but they feel that’s the only way to reach those members that have decided they’re not ready to come back to church and also because it’s the “thing” to do. “All the churches are now streaming live services so we have to also”.

[@bradbarber]

Very concise, I appreciate the hard work,

[@frankf1095]

Brilliant, what a great help your are. To the point , clear and concise and a great voice! Thank you very much.

[@cityofdavidchurchhouston]

This was by far the best streaming video I've seen. Keep up the good work.

[@stevenborkman5342]

I'm the AV guy for Calvary Chapel Northtowns (and the worship leader). We just did our first online service two Sundays ago because of the shutdown. We used OBS that first service to stream to KZbin. For our second service (yesterday), we used vMix so we could stream to both KZbin and Facebook at the same time. We have a mixer that digitizes the audio and sends it straight to the computer, and we're using a very basic webcam for video. Our first video was a bit rough, and we're quickly learning how to make a more polished video. I think a lot of churches are in the same position - needing to quickly set up online streaming for the first time.

[@apostleaderinalee5130]

I have NEVER commented on a video in my life but this was so thorough. You really increased my confidence

[@julianguegan9691]

Hi. Really well put together video that I am sure will help many people out there during these extraordinary times. I will be looking to livestream my mothers cremation service this coming Friday. Due to covid restrictions on the island on which I live we are limited to 10 people at the service. We are also limited to just 15 minutes for the entire service. No point complaining, we just need to work with what we have and make the best of it - as my Mum would say. The crematorium will not provide any form of help in this, nor do they allow access to wifi, so the whole thing will need to be done using an iPhone on a tripod and livestreamed over facebook using 4G. I was going to use a Zoom conference, but there is really no need for the 2 way video element - it is more about freinds and family that are not allowed to attend watching what is going on and leaving comments. My concern is mostly about the sound, and avoiding any unfortunate noise that might otherwise drown out the words being spoken or not capture the music being played. Any words of advice or warning on any of this would be welcomed. Many thanks Julian

[@thebiblespeaks7010]

So helpful! Wish I had seen your video before going thru all those steps blind. Got it working!

[@JayKranda]

Great points!

Wow super way are thinking of how we could do this.The Best way.thanks

[@mr.b.schannel9330]

Wow, thank you for that video. Our German school's planning to livestream the divine service for our graduents. I was about to cancel that, but maybe we'll suceed with your advices...

[@womensimpowermentnetwork2642]

You did a great job explaining. Many of have small ministries .

[@JKittles]

This was on my recommended list when I got on KZbin this morning. Thanks for the tips. I'm looking forward to learning more to help out our church livestream our services and make it easy for our team. New subscriber.

[@solomonvanhmun]

[@WorkingDemo]

Thank you brother.

[@emzynoma]

Thank you so much for this!! This is exactly what I've been looking for

[@leebeebee9288]

Hi, blackbar, love the video, is clear and straight forward. I am working on live streaming from different location , do you have any suggestions/tips as how i can go about doing that? Thank you.

[@drebbletune]

Have you any experience with the Mevo Start? That seems to be the best option for straight streaming for us - sound quality good and relatively easy connect to streaming; also good picture quality (easier to keep landscape mode than the i-phone which refused to stay). Got it hooked into OBS using a passthrough ActionCam2PC /rtmp connection. Thought everything looked good but when we started livestreaming through OBS got buffering and lag like crazy - so much worse than just using Mevo. The only thing that came through clearly was the slides and the pre-recorded video we ran). Going to try ethernet direct into the sanctuary this week to see if it improves. That's the question - I can hook the router to my laptop - the mevo connects to OBS - will this get me anything? I need the better signal for OBS, right?

[@KingPreacher]

This was a big help for my church and let us know what is out there. Thanks a ton, stay blessed brother.

[@FJDamitTV]

Praying for this in our small church in the Philippines someday. Thanks for sharing this.

[@ear916]

We use the CamLink 4k on our Mac setup for our church. it works just fine and its plug and play.

[@DanielOblak]

We are using a couple similar adapters (one for a camcorder feed, another to bring Powerpoint slides from a Windows PC) to bring video into our 2015 Macbook Pro... I tested quite a few before settling on these ... which have a pass-through HDMI port, which cuts down on adapters on my desk: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BVP5CLM/

[@0danieljcr0]

Hi. Awesome content! What's the church you stream from? Greetings from Brazil!

[@perrywalters6676]

Real good over view... awesome brother. God bless!!

[@ЕдуардЄременко-с7д]

Best instruction for fast broadcast

[@tablesauce5578]

Just want to clarify. We use the Elgato cam link with our iMac and OBS in order to stream our services and it works 100% fine. Not sure what you were mentioning when you said that it is not compatible with macs.

[@israelcepeda5525]

Tablesauce yeah, same case here.

[@GuitarGodgt]

For anyone on an extreme budget, check out the iVCam app on your phone's appstore. If you have a decent phone it's a good sub $20 solution to the camlink (sold out almost everywhere) and video camera solution offered here. There is a free version but the resolution is limited to pre DVD SD quality but it would allow you to test it before buying the app, however if you want HD resolution (and you do) you have to pay the small amount they want for the app. His comments on audio are spot on though, I don't have a better method of doing that for cheaper than what was mentioned here. A cheap 2 channel audio interface is really about as cheap as you can go to get that done. That said you can obtain used ones for less than $100. iVCam is an app that lets you use your cell phone as a web cam over your LAN wifi and since most people are walking around with decent phone cameras these days it's actually a respectable option in a pinch. If you want to mount it to a tripod there are cell phone tripod mounts on amazon for about $15-20, I recommend the Manfrotto Universal Smartphone Clamp as the cold shoe mount was a nice touch and it seems pretty well built. Also I realize this sounds like I am somehow affiliated with the app or something, I am not. I was just impressed with how well it worked on the cheap and wanted to share.

[@benjamin.kelley]

Dude, this is so easy to understand. Thanks!

[@MartyrMuzik]

Best video I've seen on this topic! Thank you sir!

[@josea.avilesphotography4336]

I used Elgato HD60 S+ with a Sony Camera 6400 and installed OBS on my macpro computer laptop and work fine need a hub stay and go and connect the hdmi from camera and ethernet cable straight to the stay and go which have a ethernet connection and I had good audio and no lagging in video and audio. That is the most basic set up I you can have. It is simple and portable. Really important run a internet speed in your computer while you have everything connected and run the setup wizard in OBS for most optimized settings. I hope this will help. The first streaming went well via Wifi but not was too reliable suggested to be wired. I hope this will help to have you running for your services. Also if the you can not stream in the Pastor house, suggest he sending the video in facebook or a youtube account where no ones knows he upload the video and then you download the video in your computer and make any rough edits. Have a nice day.

[@RJHN9108]

good info bro love it

[@mr.s4849]

Great video. Question about music licenses and youtube. I'm pretty sure churches need a license to stream music, but the way I understand it, this doesn't work for youtube (their content ID trumps any other licenses). Also, I've heard that Facebook doesn't really have a clear music copyright monitor. Anyway, how does your church deal with streaming copyrighted church music? Thanks!

[@recaodelcampo3497]

Muchas gracias por tu orientación. Todo fue muy útil y fluido. Fue al punto y muy beneficioso. Dios los bendiga.

[@joshuakincaid6397]

I actually sent back the Delgato Cam Link as I could not get it to be full frame on my Windows laptop. However, you said it doesn't work on Mac. Yes, the Delgato does which threw me as I could get it to work on my Mac, but not my Windows laptop. I was told my i3 laptop was not the right processor by Delgato. I actually bought a cheap $6.95 USB interface on eBay that works better than the Delgato. It actually works quite well on my i3 laptop using a Canon camcorder for the camera. As far as audio interface, I'm plugging from the headphone output on the church console directly into the mic input of the camcorder. Works great. I don't think I spent more than $500 for our church's whole set up.

[@glorified86]

Cam Link definitely works for Mac. Just another reference point. Team, if it’s avail to you, it’s an option. Great video. Thanks!

[@robfriedrich2822]

My church does livestreams since years - usually we have about 20 or 30, who watch, but in this time we get so much people. We did some praise and worship times on a normal working day at 11 am and got about 200 people. Plus all the people that watch later, are about 800 and more.

[@emmanuelmasih9353]

Very good video about the content thnx for the help on streaming

[@anthonymckeown5007]

Excellent. Will pass on to our newly elected tech team :)

[@IanHazzard]

Incorrect, the Elgato Cam Link 4K is definitely compatible with Apple products. I use it all the time on multiple apple machines.

[@evercontreras7028]

Ian Hazzard what do you need to set up the an apple MacBook?

[@IanHazzard]

@@evercontreras7028 Nothing! It's plug-and-play. The other elgato capture cards have problems but the Cam Link works great!

[@rickbiessman6084]

Which programs have you used it with? My church got a Mac Mini for running Pro Presenter right before the ban on services and I had to find out the hard way that the Elgato HD60 won’t work with any program other than Elgato’s proprietary Game Capture. I tried a hack that should make it available in OBS as an NDI source but all that did was crash OBS every time I’d try to set it up as a video source.

[@IanHazzard]

@@rickbiessman6084 the cam link 4k works without the software. You are correct that the HD60 only works with the software.

[@rickbiessman6084]

@@IanHazzard Ah, that’s great to know. Thought this applied to all Elgato HDMI cards. Thanks for clearing that up!

[@Carlsings]

Love this! PTL and thanks. Can you please elaborate on the laptop I should try to get for live streaming the band, the music. You said beefy and a dedicated video GPU. I was wondering, why a dedicated GPU? I was wondering if a desktop or laptop is better.I need to get something and yet want to not go by trial and error. I just bought an Elgato HD60s (Cam Link 4K all gone everywhere). This one has more features but is more $$. I have a Canon camcorder w clean HDMI output. I know I need USB3 and fast CPU. Do I need the dedicated GPU? That adds a lot to the cost. Appreciate it.

Thank you for this video. We badly need help.

[@chorleyprint3813]

Hey. Great video and very useful. I noticed you suggested a separate audio interface for capturing the audio. We are looking at a camcorder that has xlr inputs and I was wondering whether there’s a downside to taking a feed from the mixing desk into the camcorders xlr input rather than a separate audio interface.

Hi thanks for sharing this video. Don’t have any huge equipment just my laptop! I’m using an dell laptop with an external camera/ built in mic. I would like to live stream using Facebook and KZbin. I’m new to this and have heard so much. My first question can I livestream to both platforms with just Obs? Or do I need to pay for castr.io? What’s a good speed my internet need to be for this to work without lagging and bluffing? Also do I just select streaming in obs or start streaming and recording?

[@mattcrow1942]

What a blessing! Thanks!

[@WallyZorro]

Excellent, concise and straightforward for us beginners. :-) So, I attempted to hook up an Atem-mini from our sound board. Using a Samsung S10 to record the Worship service, upon playing back all was fine uh until the 20 minute mark and a loud hum came in thg through the end of the 45 minute session. Now, I was picking up my audio through the headphone jack. Is that problematic in itself, though the first 20 minutes was fine? Thank you...a first time viewer. :-)

[@cfgeagle]

Great what you done, now the running OBS is what I struggle to get it, do you have a tutorial how to program the service? like having 5 scene, but what struggle with is, to set up the sources. You know, cameras, titles or even subtitle, music, countdowns. How to set those up is what I can't get it, haven't found a tutorial that get through on my brain.
