Streamlabs PLUGIN for OBS Studio: How To Setup Alerts, Overlays, Chat, and MORE!

[@MidnightMan]

With this plugin now available, which live-streaming app will you be using? OBS or Streamlabs Desktop?

[@Besteddygamerjelly]

Both 😂

[@MidnightMan]

@@Besteddygamerjellythe only right answer

[@MariamJackson-nh5id]

Both for some reason

[@MariamJackson-nh5id]

I tried stream Lubs mobile and one hour ago I was streaming

[@singrlisa]

I was just going to ask what is the benefit of me using Streamlabs in OBS versus just streaming via Streamlabs desktop?

[@KraZeReeper]

Just spent the last couple hours messing with what I want and referencing your vids. Can say this is not the first time ive done this with a new feature. you are a great help to the community! thank you!

[@luckywaifu]

You're one of the best, most straight forward teachers and video creators I've ever seen! Restoring my faith in YT. I actually know how to use OBS but your newer streamlabs plugin vid has me hooked and you've replaced my comfort anime *(JJK)* as calming background noise

[@GamersnGains]

Wow, it's been so long since I streamed and it's amazing how much improvements have been made! Very user friendly!

[@ChaosGamingSA]

Thanks for the epic detailed video. Big question. Is it possible to multistream to Twitch and KZbin (Horizontal) through OBS and have seperate overlays and alerts popups.

[@MidnightMan]

Yes it is! You can use the aitum plugin. I made a video here you can check out kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4SraIKYhruplZIsi=r6ZEhntaDygMMEXH Thank you for the support!

[@ChaosGamingSA]

@MidnightMan sorry bro but that video just showed how to multistream horizontally Not set up seperate alert pop ups and seperate overlays (for example twitch saying recent follower under the camera and youtube saying recent subscriber) Completely separate

[@MidnightMan]

@@ChaosGamingSA That showed how to stream vertically closer to the end. To set overlays up you would need to make sure you have both your youtube and twitch merged in streamlabs so that the alerts are ingested together. Stream labels are the overlay type for showing names like recent follower. streamlabs.com/dashboard#/settings/account-settings/platforms You can also try using two separate streamlabs links. One from twitch, the other from youtube.

[@ChaosGamingSA]

@MidnightMan but if the alerts are ingested together is someone donates bits that will show on KZbin as well which won't make sense? The only way I see around it is maybe running obs and streamlabs and having twitch setup on one and youtube setup on the other (horizontal). Custom alerts and layouts. But having both obs and streamslabs running will eat up my resources

[@mmbrown82]

I couldn't get my 4 channel Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 to work with OBS without am ASIO plug-in, and it would not work with StreamLabs. This is a game changer for me. I can now use StreamLabs within OBS, and utilize my ASIO plug-in, woohoo!

[@NouHsPeeD]

thanks for your OBS tutorial bro, i love your videos so much ❤🔥

[@PandexOnYT]

Thank you so much i needed for streaming on multiple apps at once luv your tuts

[@DeroDinero]

Wow, I can't thank you enough for all the valuable insights you shared with me on my streaming journey! You've truly opened up a world of possibilities, and I can't wait to explore all the exciting new opportunities that await me. Thank you so much!

[@Besteddygamerjelly]

I’ve watched the Video now this is really cool I also like the end where you said ‘chat with people as you can see’ all you can see ist me haha. I will be using this plugin now though because it is really cool. Keep up the hard work!❤ Loved being apart of the video in very certain ways 😂💚

[@MidnightMan]

Much love man! And thank you so much for helping me with it! You definitely made it more interesting haha 👍🏽

[@arsevel]

Very helpful tip! Btw when are you going live next?

[@MarcusSevel]

I hope soon 😭

[@MidnightMan]

Have your notis on this weekend.... 👀

[@arsevel]

@@MidnightMan Just remember that I asked first 🤣

[@NECards]

this video was super useful, I will hopefully have this all working by my next livestream on 14.06.2024. Thanks for the video

[@manpougaming4581]

This actually helped me a lot and ahah eddy at the end 😆

[@spryzen_10]

Thank you for the Tips👍🏻 it's really helpful 😄

[@GibbyxGaming]

Not sure why but I just tried using the stream labs obs plug in and my alerts do not show on obs strange

[@Besteddygamerjelly]

Watching this now!!❤

[@MidnightMan]

My man!!!

[@theharshest8620]

Thank you for letting us know about this. You're really helping me out!!!!!

[@Degenbetgamer]

Nice man, can’t wait to try 🎉

[@Ninja_Walrus]

learned a couple things, very helpful thank you!

[@KevinKLSYT]

Thank you very informative and also you explain it with a nice vibe give me the feeling to watch more just came to find out how to setup but I'm gonna watch the entire video I might learn something

[@redrangernelson]

Bro this helped me out so much like you don’t even know, me and technology don’t mix well lol 😅

[@MidnightMan]

Glad I could help! 😀

[@Yelq]

The audio is not working for the redemption overlay : /

[@Geostays]

the plug in downloads and installs but everytime I boot up obs the plug in docks don’t show up and also when I installed the pop up after installing didn’t appear either, I really dk what to do

[@bewtwoyt]

Is there any way to set up commands or giveaway raffles with this plugin?

[@Nitr0ben]

When i test the twitch events, i cant see the animated gif but can hear the audio, is there anything i can do to solve that?

[@Eli-DestroyED]

Could you make a video on cloudbot store redeem features it works fine in some moments, but then has problems with the redeem features with the plugin. Do i have to disable it for it to work? 😅

[@huntersausageandredbeardsh2360]

I can't find that dashboard page. Is that in the app or no?

[@Kizzrr]

yea same i’m trying to look for it but nothing

[@KPBronx]

Another banger thanks Midnightman

[@Besteddygamerjelly]

Yes, it is!!

[@BattleStorm78]

Great video as always. Would be great to see one on how to set up multi-stream chat and alerts. ?

[@Triggity_Tron]

If you multi stream, can you get the chat windows from both streaming platforms?

[@diskostoo]

Great vid as always mate - appreciate the update. However - I’m still struggling with the ‘why’ on this topic. Like aren’t you just better to migrate fully to OBS rather than using the plugin. I get there are some UX differences but tbh the only thing I felt SLOBS gave me extra over OBS was heavier CPU usage 😂

[@indePhoenixx]

Question: For the multi stream option, would you need double the bandwidth to push out those streams to both platforms? For example, if I see my bitrate for streaming to 9000kbps for KZbin, and I want to stream on Twitch and give it 9000kbps, would I need at least 18mbs upload speed in order to do that? Or does some some server take care of the second streams bandwidth? Hopefully I worded that correctly. Edit: I just searched it and it says that their servers will take care of the rest. My next question is is there anyway to change resolutions depending on where you multi stream? For example, if i want to stream 1440p on KZbin but 720p on Twitch, is there a way to do that? My last question is there a limit to how long you can multistream? Thanks

[@jensheinke1344]

Very helpful, but no matter what i do, nothing is shown on stream. When i test a follower alert for example, It works in my obs. But when i am streaming, follower alerts just dont appear. Tried several things i read on reddit. Just wont work 😢

[@Slow_Down_TY]

anyone know how to access "enable twitch vods" with the new plugin? the option has just disappeared from settings with the plugin installed

[@CARLTONMOXLEYUnknownpianist]

It's such a big headache I own a Mac and I shouldn't have upgraded my my OS Mac OBS is not working properly. Have any other alternatives??????????

[@ItsOmare_]

what would you recommend is better stream elements or this plugin ?

[@Logan20079]

The problem is all the good overlays you need ultra but great video👍

[@gottabeinspiring]

This is simply Amazing! Thank you so much!

[@shuxhop]

can I use streamer bot with this method or it's not needed?

[@DJzero7]

i love your videos mann and ive been NEEDING THIS lol because multi streaming on obs Alone is annoying

[@gogamingfn]

Great video 👏🏽

[@notchap_]

Hey, I have a problem signing into Streamlabs OBS. When I click sign in on any platform, or with the id, it wont work/do anything. Do you think you could tell me how to fix this?

[@Weronika_Preet]

You should reinstall it i guess

[@cocomo3141]

This was awesome 👌🏾

[@BannyBoo]

For some reason my OBS will not allow me to log into my streamlabs account with this new plugin and I tried uninstalling and redownloading as well as restarting my computer. Not exactly sure why.

[@chevydito]

Any way I can just hide screen with 1 click ? Or like how can I hide screen from using streamlabs

[@aastinee]

Does using SLOBS plug in be heavy for the CPU? I used SLOBS before for recording it it takes 25%-35% CPU usage ang it makes my game lag. So I was planning on using OBS. Sadly it doesn't have any widgets so I have to install it.

[@mafixyt]

Tq soo much bro

[@T-Virus_x3]

What are you’re setting for recording on obs for Macbook pro?

[@HG4k_]

I gotta try this tonight I just fix the he black screen on my capture card it’s shows so perfect

[@lilx4647]

nice vid brother this came just on time, chapters would have been nice btw but good vid other than that.

[@YTMoJoe]

Bro I added the plug in and it just destroyed all my scenes and deleted them what do I do

[@XtremePot420]

What’s the difference between the Steamlabs OBS and the streamlabs plugin for OBS?

[@XtremePot420]

Does it matter what capture card you are using for this?

[@Toepy]

I have a hp probook 450 g6 and i want to make it better how can i make it better

quick question does this mean that if my internet fails streamlabs now will (like the other one) reconnect to the stream?

[@MidnightMan]

it should try to auto reconnect yeah

@@MidnightMan thx

[@realsarco]

So should I use this or botrix?

[@BIGXARES]

Can this work for the ps5 setup as well?

[@NeoStarling]

Solid video you save me with the Multistream as I couldn't figure out why my Twitch didn't start automatically but the "Start Streaming Flowing" Being off was why I couldn't multi stream. Thanks again. Subbed.

[@Casadorperfect]

I like this video, but it doesn't explain anything about the chat box… How do I make my LIVE chat visible on my stream using Streamlabs?

[@TheABExperience-901]

The audio still isn’t coming through the stream, any ideas?

[@SenorCoconut10]

When i press login and get started it doesn’t do anything

[@itsnazareth17]

What do you mean by restart my computer 🖥️😅 do you need to turn it off and then turn on or do you mean restart it and lose all my data

[@KakashionFortnite]

can u dual pc withh streamlabs now?

[@viperwolflen]

i did everything right but not letting me stream

[@CraytonTv]

Awesome 👏🏽 tip & detailed information bro 😎 keep up the good work! Great way for Streamlabs to input that plugin for OBS since Streamlabs is built off OBS anyway 😂 but great video nice and smooth for PC and coming for macOS very soon. Your video editing skills look great also God Bless 😇

[@MidnightMan]

Thank you bro!!

[@DaZZ3L_Gaming]

Question: Does the free multi stream plug-in for OBS still work after this update?

[@MidnightMan]

Yep, just push your stream through OBS only, not through the plugin. I showed how that’s done after the pushing stream section of this video.

[@DaZZ3L_Gaming]

Thanks, I'll re-watch the video 👍 Ahh, the start streaming g flow part lol got it

[@RagingPachu]

hi should i use a personal account or business account for starting a gaming channel

[@MidnightMan]

Interesting, I was able to get it to work

[@Atlas.444]

I have a question because Iam ignorant. Why do people need a streamlabs plugin for OBS rather than just streaming from Streamlabs? Aren't they essentially the same software just one has more customization and other external services and such?

[@Nyc_llynx]

saying the file needs an app associated wit it for preforming this action, have no idea what that means
