So with this screen being a little more compact, and squashed down to 720, it is probably going to give you a higher quality live stream at little to no impact on the viewer. These days, when people watch live streams, they watch them on a variety of devices, including phones and laptops.

I just got my 4K monitor, and I don't feel like resizing all of the different elements that I have on my normal live stream, so I'm going to leave it at 1080.īut the output scale is what's going to directly impact your broadcast, and I'm broadcasting at 720. In theory, I should probably raise the base canvas resolution, but that's okay. You'll notice the base canvas resolution is 1920 x 1080. Like I said before, this is going to take testing on your part, so maybe 2,500 is a good place for you to start, and you can go from there. And I'm going to do a bit rate of about 5,000 because I already know my system, and I know it can handle that. Personally, I prefer using NVENC when I'm streaming, so I'm going to go ahead and select that. Depending on what you're doing, the game you're playing, or the type of broadcast you're doing.

This is going to use my CPU to do all of my encoding for me, but if you want, you can change it to NVENC or the new version of that.

In the example I use in the video (above), it's set to software x264. If we visit the output section, we can choose our encoder. Now let's tackle some of the more technical aspects of live streaming on Streamlabs OBS.

Adjust the screen size so it fits the window.

If it has trouble doing this, click on the drop-down menu to capture a specific window.

The software will now search for a game on your system to capture.

Let’s say you want to add a game capture, just click ‘game capture’, then ‘Add Source’.

First, you’ll need to connect to your YouTube channel by logging in - just follow all the prompts! Let’s go through the Streamlabs OBS set up. You need to run test streams on your own channel, and maybe even get feedback from viewers on different testing streams you try. All the things I'm showing you are going to depend on you at the end of the day. Thanks to how powerful these encoders have become, using something like Streamlabs OBS allows you to stream a game on your computer at a much higher quality than ever before.īefore we dive in head first, I will warn you this set-up can get very technical, and I'm going to cover it very briefly, in the most basic way possible, just to get you started. There are a lot of encoders out there, YouTube actually has a list of recommendations, some free, some not. Anything you've used to live stream is an encoder, but I’m going to focus on Streamlabs OBS for this tutorial. When we talk about software for live streaming, we're actually talking about encoders.

The bottom line is that top-quality hardware is great, but with software advancing so much, not using the very latest state-of-the-art computer doesn't have to limit you. If I try to push it any higher than that, the game performance and stream quality drops.

I can play Minecraft at 1080p with 30 frames a second, or I can play it at 720p with 60 frames a second. These items allow me to stream with 10 megabits per second upload. I’m also using an older AMD Ryzen 7 processor. Now for the type of computer you need to play a game, and live stream it at the same time, I have a GTX 1060, three gigabytes, with 16 gigabytes of RAM. 5 is just my personal recommendation because I think any less, and you're going to struggle when it comes to quality. Personally, I have 10 megabits per second for my upload speed, and it allows me to push a better quality live stream. The best speed I can recommend is no less than five megabits per second upload when you're trying to stream on YouTube. The Internet is such an important element in the mix because, in some areas of the world, you just can't control what kind of speed you're going to get when you sign up for your Internet plan. This is going to be the biggest bottleneck you're going to face while live streaming. First off, let’s talk about the Internet.
