Ever wanted to stream your computers screen to Instagram? With this easy guide it will be a matter of minutes before you are live on Instagram with OBS Studio.
Streaming with OBS Studio on Instagram is easy! The only thing you need is Yellow Duck, OBS Studio, a Webcam and a microphone of some sort.
To be able to stream to Instagram with OBS Studio you need to set up a new OBS Studio Profile and OBS Studio scene collection. To stream to Instagram with OBS Studio make sure to set the OBS Studio canvas to 1080×1920 this is FullHD but in vertical mode.
Next simply arrange your OBS Studio input sources for you're liking. A tip to Stream to Instagram with OBS Studio is to only use half of your desktop in OBS Studio, so you have a vertical aspect ratio when you stream to Instagram. I usually set up OBS Studio to split my view in top 1/3 Webcam and bottom 2/3 desktop or the application I want to stream to Instagram using OBS Studio.
Next up you need to set up your Streaming destination in OBS Studio using Yellow Duck. Once that's done you will be ready to stream your computer to Instagram with OBS Studio

Thank you so much for breaking this down. It's helped us immensely while transitioning from live concerts to streaming!

[@GreenBoxMedia]

Glad to help. In this case, you might want to sub to this channel because there are more streaming videos coming up shortly.

[@GreenBoxMedia]

Thanks for the clarification!

[@ZacharyAghaizu]

@@sen1109 maybe check his new tutorial Update?

[@DNoelProductions]

This was amazing. I'm new to all of this, and this was very thorough AND entertaining. Just a couple of questions. What software did you use for editing this video and how did you actually record this process? (Like showing what you were doing while you were teaching)

[@GreenBoxMedia]

Glad you enjoyed it! To edit my videos I use Adobe Premiere Pro which is a Pro tool. To record the process on the MacBook I used an external HDMI capture card. But on OSX you can also use QuickTime Player to do a Screen Recording. Within the next few weeks there will be a Setup Tour on my channel where I will go into more details. ✌

[@denniselliott2823]

Great tutorial! Thank you so much for the awesome breakdown

[@brendenwright]

Thanks! Was trying to figure out how to record in Insta format for another purpose and this helped perfectly. Appreciate you doing this! 🚀

[@GreenBoxMedia]

Unfortunately I don't have a iPhone but Elgato has a product for that.

[@GreenBoxMedia]

Many of you seem to have problems with yellow duck. Therefore, I am on the lookout for an alternative to update this video. If you already know a good alternative feel free to post it under this comment! See you soon!

[@amorvacio2157]

please. after installing it shows "Oops! An error has occured. Please, restart the application to get latest update" Do you know how to fix it?

[@GreenBoxMedia]

As stated in the comment over yours there seams to be an issue with yellowduck. so no I don't know how to fix it other than just trying again after a few hours.

[@ClauMoyaMusic]

Yeah, I have a problem with instagram too, every time I put “its me” and I put next and nothing😔😔😔 help please

[@fhzdfhdfh]

Hello Greneey, great structured video! A stable and working alternative can be Promovgram. It is not free as Yellow duck, but their platform is working always and they have great support.

[@fhzdfhdfh]

​@@ClauMoyaMusic This is a common problem with Yellow duck, you can try Promovgram, they offer the possibility to receive an SMS code confirmation from Instagram to allow you to add your account succesfully.

[@florenhart]

Thank you SO much, this video was PERFECT!

[@markcole948]

Thanks brotha. Very descriptive and professional. Helped me out a lot
