Thank you so much! I had been struggling with this for like 4 hours straight and this was the ONE tutorial that finally worked and didn't make a weird echo on my stream! My streams are now saved, thank you GenX Tech! <3

Im not finished with the video yet but so far I think its awesome

[nosweatsports]

Excellent breakdown. Does this apply for the TikTok live chat as well? I can’t get the my TikTok chat messages to show up in OBS

[runescape]

yours was the best tutorial in a sea of fake

[WreckingBallers]

Awesome tutorial. Explained everything in a simple way, and the chat webcam overlay technique is a great idea.

[abijacob]

Does this method work with Youtube live?

[DerekSpeareDSD]

how do you get the Youtube chat dock that shows up in OBS to stay on top so i see it when playing a full screen game and streaming? I can't get it to stay on top so I can see the chat :/ Can you tell me?

[QwerginMemes]

the chat doesent appear on my screen and it only appears in the screen of obs idk why this is happening

[xxostepolse]

i was using youtube for this, and when i typed something on the chat the messages didn't show. is this a common mistake?

[farouk]

when someone writes a long message it will dissapear from the right edge !!??

[sandpiperbirdie]

After watching this tutorial, I was not able to have my overlay. OBS has had a major update recently and this is probably why.
I'm on an Alienware Aurora R8 OS Windows 10.

Hey man, great video. A few comments from a random that doesn't know anything:
1. The transitions are a bit jarring.
2. Also I don't think you need an intro. It makes your video perform less well.

Keep up the good work! Enjoy your day/life.
