Prepping for my first YouTube Livestream after streaming via Twitch for three years. Super helpful and thank you for taking the time to explain the set up! Feeling less nervous about streaming on YouTube now!

I have been learning OBS since 2020, watched over hundreds videos, and this one is definitely THE BEST OBS streaming toturial video!!! Just realized my GPU setting is targeted at intel onbaord UHD Graphics 770 (GPU 0) not my Nvidia 3070 Ti (GPU 1)!!!

Great explanation. I will follow it so I can set up my YB with OBS. I just updated it. As far as overlays, I use Canva.

Thank you! Just a tiny correction. Not 'MegaBytes', but megaBITS (that's 8 times lower than Bytes). MB measure how much space is on the disk and Mbs measure the transfer speed of bits per second.

Great video, thanks. But keep getting <live streaming is not enabled on YT> message when hitting broadcast (streaming just defaults to broadcast option) - any solutions most welcome? I'm using mac.

Very informative and well presented, nicely done.

Have you covered streaming and recording at the same time on YouTube?

[Jurassiccanonking]

Help! The dock and live controls will not appear no matter what I do and OBS will now only capture the left half of my screen.

Hi - I have a question. I have a variety of nature sounds and white noise videos that I have already published on my channel. If I wanted to live stream a pre recorded youtube video, how can I do that using OBS? Can I somehow browse to my YouTube video using OBS, or do I have to download my video from YouTube and save it on my local drive in order to use it as a "media source" from OBS? Hope my question makes sense. Since I would be live streaming a pre recorded Youtube video, I will not be using my camera or microphone, so what video settings would you recommend I use in OBS?

[DubRgames]

just one question about the bitrate. I got about 100k as my answer to all the maths bit, so what should I set my bitrate to in OBS, if i've configured it for 60fps at 1080p?

[TheSTRMZzzzz]

I’ve done all of this but when I open my manage broadcast button (3:08) it gives me me the error saying live streaming isn’t enabled even though when I click the live stream to go live I don’t get the timer. Whenever I click go live it tells me my webcam isn’t enabled what do I do to enable it? On my pc I don’t have it disabled.

[Dudesnaps]

Is there a specific setting I need to turn on to get the other Encoder Settings or is it just my computer specs?
For context I don't have the Tuning Option nor Multipass mode ect.

Awesome video, just one request - cut the music or keep it low.

Does changing streaming services change your stream and record settings?
