If your stream is getting stretched, you most likely have your streaming or recording settings being rescaled, disable it in the output settings (i had the same problem)

Damn I never thought I’d see internet as good as curry’s 😂

Oh wow, I needs this. I was wondering how to stream some of my videos to shirts. Because that's where I get a lot of my views and subscribers from 😮 nice job man. I really appreciate it.

[Kratzyau]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and help on this matter.

[rsmith]

Will it automatically stream to shorts? Or do I have to do something else?

[FBI_Gaming]

Bro thank you so much I have been trying this for a year and only you could help me!!!❤🎉😊

[wisdomfromyoutube]

after u follow these directions, if your stream isn’t vertical do this;
​​⁠
go to ‘View’ then ‘Preview scaling’ then ‘Scale to window’. you’re welcome

[Coolpeanut]

When people click on my stream will it stay vertical or will it go horizontal??

[Skeltoz]

Just found your videos on setting up the YouTube Shorts streams, super helpful!

One question, so I was able to set it up in the past where different audio sources went to YouTube and Twitch cause I listen to music while gaming but that is a no no on YouTube but couldn't seem to figure it out for my Vertical Plugin going to YouTube Shorts. Do you happen to have any experience with this?

[yigamooo]

this video helped me a lot, thank you so much, Very clear step by step process

[knokd_]

I think I forgot to check ignore YouTube recommended settings. Thanks for the video

[SherlockHohms]

Dude, love how you get right into it. Awesome style and content. Keep it up man!

[Brotinho]

When I do it, my stream just forces itself to horizontal and gets stretched

[MexicoBeachFloridaLiving]

Nice explanation...just what I needed.

[AshuraDrakarys]

new here! nice video tho, when you go live you recognize as a short? or will show in live as a regular streaming but in vertical? thanks you

[WhiffWizardGaming]

You need a capture card for console to do this right? Yes or no?

[eggopolis]

I want to do pre-recorded video stream for youtube shorts
Please explain what should i do

[duhzyy]

When i do the 1920x1080 on both, it doesnt change shape to the youtube shorts layout

[CapnFlags]

Just to make sure, there is no specific “YouTube short” live-streaming option, right? The format is what enables it to appear within YouTube shorts?
