Restream chat bot has an option where when someone sends a message on 1 platform, Restream posts that message everywhere via the bot and it also has that chatters name

[@assortednerdery]

I was really impressed with Restream in the few interactions I had with it.

[@primalvalor]

This is true, but it’s REALLY ugly and confusing. I’ve been in a few chats where it was being used, and I just left and went to the platform everybody else was on.

[@MosesFrnchToast]

@@primalvalor oh, I didn’t say it was great lol it’s not by any means, but it’s much better than looking at the chat box on the stream itself, where you can’t scroll, & talk to people that way lol

[@KamleshMallick]

@@MosesFrnchToast is that chat bot option available in the free version?

[@MosesFrnchToast]

@@KamleshMallick I believe so? I could be wrong. It’s been a while since I’ve used it honestly

[@Barnameji]

What a legend. thanks so much for understanding, advising, and supporting small creators. Multistreaming is critical for a channel of my size, and its great to know I'm not the only one trying to figure out a good system. The tips really help. Thanks again bro!

[@KismetBP]

The timing of this video is perfect. I’ve been trying to get around to multi-streaming from KZbin to other places as well. Also big thanks for all the hard work on the epic vertical plug in! ❤️🤘

[@ProjectMysticApostolate]

Thanks for the video Harris. Also still grateful for allowing us to use Streambeats. I use it on everything now and it has made making content a lot easier. Much love from the Philippines! ♥️

[@NiCk3l_GrAbBeR_GaMiNg]

This was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for explaining not only how to but also what goes into multi streaming from the user end to the hardware. Keep doing what you do I appreciate you 🙂

I was about to say I use them and I don't get that watermark haha I use OBS btw

Can’t be angry with daddy twitch anymore 🙌🏼 it’s now allowed to multi-stream!

[@stopwar1]

@@Richard_Leon Wait fr? That's amazing

[@Richard_Leon]

@@stopwar1 yup, announced at twitch-con

[@Aprylnators]

Great breakdown of the re-streaming in current day! I have been wanting to try this because I see a lot of creators between KZbin & Kick doing it, but was a little nervous about jumping in and trying to manage multiple chats. Now I'm excited & feel a lot more confident about setting this up, thank you!

[@fsonetwork]

Quick note on the Restream chat thing.. It does combine all the chats for some platforms. ie: My YT chats are relayed to my Twitch chat for everyone to see and vice-versa. Restream also relays chats from both to a specific channel on my Discord (It will relay anything from that discord channel back as well) so I have a chat transcript available in my Discord as well.

[@ClumsyToast]

Oh good to know!

[@lemonjuice3071]

i recently swapped from Twitch to KZbin because i was getting a bit upset with the issue of the "3 years streaming to 2 to no spectators". And from there i began multistreaming to Kick as well. I dont particularly know how to redo my beginnings in this platform, but this channel helped me get some insight on that (though im not too willing to stream/post on Tiktok lol). Even a bit before that, i already began working on editing some videos, and trying to get a better layout in the overall (as well as a few other tricks). And i wanna thank you for your content, it helped me have a better understanding of what to do/expect regarding streaming. I'm still not anywhere, but i have not given up hahah. Keep the good work!

[@shutitupnlisten]

This was a very informative video, bro! I appreciate you! been following for a while. THANK YOU!!

[@zenosfire]

ooooo. I'm liking the simplicity of the plug in idea, will check that out in the morning 100%

[@Gam3rC4m]

5:06 - restream DOES the same as what he was saying about Bottrix. I use Bottrix only because its Kick's best option for alerts etc since there's no other decent tool available for it yet. I've been using Restream for awhile now and the reason why I didn't move away from it when they kneecapped their free tier is because I have chats from DLive, KZbin, Twitch and Kick all show up on my overlay as one continuous chat. My viewers are able to interact with each other easily even though they're watching on different platforms. Also, restream has a chat dock that I can see all messages in one spot so I can reply to my viewers as if they were all watching on one platform. Other restreaming options are limited to what platforms they support for group chat. So, yes - restream does do multichat very very well. At least from my experience :)

[@harrisheller]

That's good to know. I couldn't find any restream chat info on youtube from less than like 3 years ago. Thanks for the update.

[@Gam3rC4m]

@@harrisheller Happy to help! Appreciate your videos and hard work!!

[@HorrorPapi]

I was a Twitch only streamer before, got some buzz but becoming a father made me reset some priorities. I've been considering coming back and the streaming world has changed so much since I've been gone. Your videos have somewhat kept me in the loop of major changes. Always good to know of all available options if this is something I would be considering eventually

[@PapiGrayBeard]

congrats bro.

[@raydy8212]

Congrats man, hope you doing good for the kids and the wify.

[@G0DLY11]

Congrats on the kid man just moved house and previously streamed on twitch but going to come back once my internet is in and just stream literally everywhere but once I start gaining a following narrow down to just kick and get everyone over there but starting off I think it’s best to be everywhere and get your content out to as many people as possible as well as posting clips on all socials especially TikTok and shorts

[@brandinimmo7837]

As always, happy stream advice! Thanks Harris 😊

[@PresidentCRAFT]

Great video Harris 💜 thank you for sharing all this wisdom and knowledge with us 👏

[@31Fox]

GREAT information. As always, well thought out and presented.

[@stealthyrebellion]

Just began multi streaming and very much enjoyed it. Do need a few more things but I really have been enjoying it

[@WillyLo]

I need Harris to redo this now with Twitch dropping the multistream restrictions! 😂 This video has become so helpful now!

[@MarkThePulverizer]

Yeah, exactly why I just came back to this video!

[@divacroft1034]

twitch literally promotes nudity striptease alcohol consumption and drug absude on their streams...nobody cared about some multistream restiction

[@divacroft1034]

As a amtter of fact alcocol commercial of any kind is illegal by law and punishable prison sentence in my country yet somehow few times i was literally reccomended on front page vodka event

[@divacroft1034]

so twitch rules is irrelevent no matter what it is as they break international laws by letting such thing go through to my country adresses aka commiting crime themselves

[@thewolfgaming4874]

here is the thing any kind of legal issues is based on US laws so they are not breaking any laws and if anything went to court it would be a court in cali and most likely nothing would come of it since based on us laws they havent broke any

[@Shadowking1304x]

That’s dope that u made this cuz I was trying to find out the cheapest way to stream on everything that won’t kill my laptop

[@MrPowerGamerBR]

05:53 I think this is something cool that you could implement into Aitum: Instead of only supporting one new "stream canvas", you could add support for multiple canvas, this way you aren't limited to just two canvas.

[@harrisheller]

Graphics cards can only encode a certain amount of instances. With the second canvas they are typically maxed out.

[@ExocronMain]

I do know its not optimal 😅 but a lot of people have still laptops, macbooks, or „older“ pcs left over. You can send the video signal from the gaming pc to 1, 2 or 3 streaming devices. With that great plugin you can now stream to 2-4-6 at once 😜😉 - still not optimal, look for your upstream AND your electricity bill 😊 greetings from germany !

[@Izanaginu]

I'm a new streamer and KZbin recommended this to me, thank god they did that xD, never thought about doing multi-stream's, since I stream mainly on twitch I did not know there is a special plugin on obs, you are a lifesaver, will try this method and hoping for the best

[@YukiiY016]

Thanks, I was thinking to multi stream for a while now and this definitely helps

[@skonzii]

As always, super informative. Thx!

[@hoen1x]

I used to stream on Twitch but a bunch of my friends moved over to Kick because of the easier monetization and TOS. So now I'm over there, but I do want to try to stream multiple places so this video is a really big help.

[@SoloMentality_]

As a recently new streamer, I will be taking full advantage of these tips. I just ordered a capture card and ill be very excited to finally start using OBS. I would really like to be able to find new growth while playing some shooters or arpg's as ive noticed that the majority of my real audience only enjoyed watching me play arpg's but i began to get burnt out and wanted to try new games on stream

[@younesstibokka372]

thank you for the help, def coming back to this video in the end of the month .

[@xxxtowerdogxxx]

Thanks for the insight, I stream mainly to Twitch and have some on Kick but the constant swapping back an forth using 1 instance of OBS and alerts overlapping have pushed me away from this until now. Going to try the Aitum vertical plug in and see how that works as I have the equipment to handle it but still learning the ins and outs of OBS plug ins, thanks again! Love the content.

Neighh o/ Awesome video, and extremely relevant as of Nov 1, 2023. I multi stream on Kick, Facebook, Twitch, and sometimes KZbin. I've been using the OBS plugin for months, and it has been great, so easy to use. In addition, the Aitum plugin has made it so seamless to create clips and such with the Backtrack key. Thank you for all the techy stuff. LETSSGOOOO!

[@WonderGoon]

I stream on Twitch under the same name. I've thought about multistreaming, but I don't know if it would help or hurt me. After seeing this video, though, I may try to do it, though it will probably be on two new platforms as I don't want to get banned on Twitch. Great video, Harris. Keep up the good work.

[@Derbearian]

I've been waiting for this video.

[@kkhunterger]

Great video! With the recent news of Twitch allowing mult streaming amongst their competitors, I will definitely use your tips to stream on Twitch, Kick, KZbin, Instagram and Tiktok at the same time. Once I started, I will let you know and then afterwards tell about my experience, performance wise and of course growth wise. Happy streaming everybody!

[@helpmeforget...]

Cheers mate , great info delivered perfectly

[@The_Chad_]

I've been seriously contemplating multistreaming, but since I like streaming ultrawide at a high bitrate, and I can only do that on KZbin, I haven't started doing it. I figured if I was going to do that, I would just need to make all my streams 1080p. I totally forgot about the damn second screen on OBS that's been staring at me all along. I didn't realize you could change the resolution. I guess I can keep my main stream on KZbin how it is, and send a 2nd 1080p feed out to Twitch, Kick, and Rumble. Great video as always!!! Well except when you made the video saying Kick was basically running on blood money and would be dead in no time. lol

[@A_Byte_Of_Everything]

Small streamer here, thanks for a clear and versatile guide. I think recent multistream rules changes on Twitch will make this video even more useful and popular.

this was very helpful and encouraging lol I'm a new streamer and I'm mostly on here but Kick seems to be on the up&up.

[@StreliziaDeWitt]

I'm going to Multi stream using Prism Live Studio. Was surprisingly easy to setup and they have their own chat plugin too. Now if they add a docking feature like OBS then it would be perfection (oh and official Kick integration).

[@urihanaa]

i use prism too and you can add kick docks manually (which a bit of a pain sometimes when it got disconnected)... did your stream got any problem when youre ending the live stream? because mine did

[@reelsindustries7530]

You hit the reason why I'm here cuz I'm finally starting my stream and I want to be able to get a broadcast to all different audience on all platforms, so as they say "The wider ur net the more fishes u just might catch" and im trying to go viral on something

I have a suggestion for multi chat, Social Stream Ninja is what I've been using. Not limited to just streaming platforms either and dockable within OBS. Also works really well.

[@SuperDope]

I was just looking into this and it seems really cool! I was wondering if it could work for grabbing tiktok live chat too?

[@ChmielON_]

​@@SuperDopeStream Ninja without any configurations captures chat from every open tik tok livestream window. If you open another live during this time, your chat window will become a mess.

Yeahhh - you got me with this one. I saw the title and was like - NO way!

[@TriHouse]

I was so against multi streaming for a long time, but once you have an established audience on multiple platforms it simply makes sense. I don't have the time to do 3 different livestreams on 3 different platforms. Optimize the chat and and just go live on all of them at once

Recently decided to start my streaming career as a kick streamer. Still trying to make this decision on if multistream g is for me. This video is very helpful though. Been running with a lot of good ideas for my stream hopefully I can figure out what's best. Either way I have been enjoying my time on kick!

[@AlainJP]

Now, the video is gold 😂

[@ButtersChannel]

Finally, these are the type of videos I've subbed to you for, these and product reviews

[@RevyMorelia]

I am originally a twitch enjoyer but watching corporate vtubers made me nowadays watch way more youtube streams. And I gotta say, some features there are really neat. Like community posts (I try to stay away from other social media *coughtwittercough* as much as possible and sometimes you simply wanna get a notice out to your viewerbase), or the waiting rooms and the fact that the VOD is automatically saved AND under a different tab then when I'd upload it by hand to youtube (which makes it much more organised if you also upload edited videos). It's also neat that you can give perks specifically to paid subsribers. But twitch also has it's perks. A worse encoder for example... ok but aside from that, I like the interface of the platform more, I like the whole using emotes site-wide, the animated emotes, the chatting culture, no ads for subscribers... Somehow, writing this right now, I feel like youtube actually has the better features imo... But I decided to stream on twitch anyways, because it was what I was more used to when I first started out. I just weirdly don't see myself as a youtube streamer. Also, I get tons of small indies recommended on twitch and regularly find new people. But even after watching streamers on yt for like two years, I only recently got small streams recommended and then it was only people with like 2 viewers. Where are the in-betweens? It always felt like the indie scene on youtube doesn't exist, so it felt like I'd be streaming into a void. Anyway, because of aforementioned features, I considered dual streaming. But at the moment it's just too much of a hassle for me, I don't wanna change all my settings because I am not knowledgeable enough to know what all the settings really mean and stuf... it seems like a big hurdle still...

[@tyr_rex_]

Thank you so much! I was pulling out my hair trying to find my stream key for tiktok. Going to try the virtual camera trick.

[@ArashYT]

5:19 Harris. There is a web browser widget that shows that all-combined chat as an overlay on restream! its in your chat settings where you can find this link and customize how it looks.

[@ZamyPlayer]

Hi I love your videos! I have a question. If I want to stream normal on KZbin and vertical on TikTok at the same time using the Aitum plug inn and the configuration you talk about on this video, the microphone that I'm using for the stream on youtube will be pick up by tiktok? or do I need a second microphone for tiktok?

[@Isaiahmathew]

thanks for the link to that OBS plugin real helpful

[@RogerPlaysTV]

i was thinking about Tik Tok + twitch even if i think i don't like to have 2 separated chat or stuff... but this video is right on point!

[@Zyveon]

Your an inspiration for streamers ❤️

[@erikaksland]

Thanks for the info! Was going to start multi streaming and this was super super helpful. One thing, your vertical plugin is supposed to have that camera capture for TikTok live-ability. I believe my version of the plug-in is up to date but I’m not seeing it? Is it a PC only thing for now? When/is it coming to the Mac version of the plug-in? Or am I being dumb 😅

[@Alucard5715]

Wait, so can we use the verticle plug in to stream to both kick and tiktok at the same time while main OBS is doing twitch? And let us have alerts on Kick too? Cause I feel like that's a missing point for me. Tried the plug in to stream tontwitch and kick and didn't have any alerts popping on stream for kick. Just the Chay alerts. Which kinda blows, inwant each platform to feel like it's getting equal attention. And the chat combiners I've seen you and others use. Is that just for stream to see or can you (the streamer) use that too? Cause trying to have my vertical monitor set up with 2 chats and 2 activity feeds was a little hard to keep track of. 1 chat thats color or platform coded would be much easier would be much easier lol

[@Stream-Guy]

Quick question but do you put your videos in the gaming category when posting trying to figure out what streaming guides are considered on YT

[@Alaiing]

Twitch now allows multi-stream! BUT you are not allowed to merge chats. The idea is to prevent anything that would draw viewers outside of Twitch.

[@devzaren]

I stream On KZbin, I multi streamed in Twitch and KZbin for 3 years if i remember right, and now only here cos i have more people in here that watched my content. I used Restream when i multi-streamed and it worked Really good! Recommend that

[@BlueLineVibes]

Stumbled upon your video here about restreaming. Was hoping to find the links you mentioned in your description or a pinned comment. For example the OBS Plugin, The restream link, but pretty sure I can find that on my own. However, I do see several links to product links lol. Thanks for the content though. BTW for those that are wondering about Multistreaming from Twitch to KZbin for example is allowed now and not against TOS, started about 4 or 5 months ago. Just a few small restrictions in the TOS that would not impact most if not all people.

[@MoonDoggie82]

The problem is it's easier to get monetized on Twitch, so streaming there is the focus. I would love to stream on KZbin but I'm not going to make it the main place if I'm not getting paid.

[@Insight_Gaming]

you the real homie harris!

[@dinu_paturica]

Thanks for the info! Might try it.. Only on Twitch atm and barely have time for that as a mom of toddlers, but maybe someday it would be fun to stream to multiple platforms 😊

[@akira541OG]

Yeah restream has a overlay and when i streamed in kick and KZbin they were having full blown conversations (more like debates on the superior streaming platform lol) in the middle of my gaming lol. Restream honestly is the better option purely for the resources favor

[@immoneyron]

@@RhinoThunderHLV I have version 1.2.5 of the plugin installed in OBS version 29.1.3. At the bottom of the vertical plugin canvas, there are 4 buttons. The last one turns on/off the virtual camera.

[@PixelShaun]

Im bouncing between twitch and yt, and twitch and kick. Gonna use the vertical plugin and send that to kick while i restream to yt&twitch. Use botrix to combine chats and have 3 streams at once. Itll make me lose the verticle capture button on my steamdeck, but i can always write down a timestamp and edit later on
