FINALLY an OBS tutorial that doesn't waste time and gets right to the point and actually answers our questions! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Sounds great, you're welcome 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
@@PrimalVideoyes thanks so much❤
@@PrimalVideocan you have 2 cameras live in the same scene? I’d want to use iPhones as webcams. My host and I both want to have our own video source (simultaneously)(same scene) at the same time. Is this possible?
Must admit, set the benchmark on video tutorials. Kept it simple, informal, engaging, punchy but with enough detail to get you going. Awesome job

This is such a great tutorial! It has relieved a lot of the stress and anxiety about going live, getting confused and my brain shutting down!
So awesome to hear it, cheers! 😊 - Hazel, PV Team
2-years later and your video is still amazing and relevant. Thinking of doing something livestream using OBS. It's definitely powerful and I thank you for going through the steps to get this newbie started. Gracias!
I'm glad this video is still helpful to you after two years. Best of luck with your live-streaming journey! 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
Justin, your tutorials are heads and shoulders above everyone else on the CZcams platform. Thank you so much. Very clear. Very concise.
You're welcome, Randall 👍
Wow! Perfectly paced. All the basics. One of the best tutorials I've ever seen on anything!
So awesome to hear it, cheers 😊 - Hazel, PV Team
Wow thank you so much. I just downloaded OBS and have been watching various tutorials-- yours is by far the most clear and concise beginners tutorial I have seen. Thank you for making this software seem less daunting!
You're welcome - glad you enjoyed it 😊
Unbelievably clear and helpful. Just love the straightforward step by step as though we are paying you big bucks for every minute. LOVE it. Was very apprehensive until I watched this through, then love learning to master it myself, all new vocabulary, slowly doing what you show us to do. THANK YOU.
You're welcome, Susan - glad you liked it 👍
@Will Swift He did do that. You need to go back and watch it again. Write the instructions down.
I wrote notes during the video first time. Second time I will walk through it while I watch it using my notes.
@@jackseve I may have to do this too, because this seems like too much work when others seem like point and click drag and drop.
Hi Justin, I have been hesitating to use OBS because of its apparent complexity, however your wonderful clear and concise video has changed my misconception. Now I can feel more confident in setting up my facebook livestream course on an Introduction To Playing The Blues. A big thank you.
So awesome to hear that! You're welcome! 😃
@@PrimalVideo can I have your whatshap... It's difficult for me to just understand with video
He really clarified so much ...really great video!
@@repairstudio4940 EXACTLY, he was very clear and made it very simple. There is no question about the directions.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! You made it so clear and helpful and I love how instead of spending so much time yapping about other stuff you got straight to the point! TYSM!!!
You're welcome - so awesome to hear that! 😃
Awesome break down, I have watched several and was still lost until I saw this one. Thank you for actually doing a beginner friendly version.
You're welcome - glad you liked it 😊
As someone that hasn't done any type of capturing on pc or streaming, this is by far the best video I have found. I know there are a lot out there but I have no idea what I am doing. You broke it down and showed it step by step. I'm not done watching the video but you have my sub and I will be checking out your other videos to learn more. Thank you so much for your work on this video, this is what I was looking for!
You're welcome, Matt - glad to have you here! 😃

Thanks for the tutorial. You made it so simple and easy to use. Loved your presentation.
You're welcome - happy to help 👍
Doing our first online streamed event on Saturday (online benefit gig). I was panicking until I watched your video but you broke it down in a super clear way - feeling way calmer about it all now. Thank you so much!!
So glad it helped - no problem!

Justin, I have tried using my webcam to go live on youtube with not success at all!! I had no idea that I had to download a software. I've watched a dozen of videos on how to go live on YT and not one tutorial helped me at ALL!!! The best and I mean the best tutorial that I've seen on CZcams! Thank you so much!
You're welcome - so awesome to hear it!
Today was my cousins birthday, and he was turning 18, he was on his computer, he showed me he was a streamer, a small one, and showed me all the needed programs for the stream (including OBS and some others I think). I didn't understand anything and was very surprised, excited. Now I found this video and is very helpful. Thank you a lot. One of the most helpful ones out there.
You're welcome - so glad it helped! 😊

@@PrimalVideo also, do you have a video for those multiple monitors streamers have? But simplified? Like the setup and how to use them etc.?
Wow. One of the best CZcams tutorial videos I 've ever seen. Incredibly professional, informative and interesting. And, I'm sure it was intended, but as I was going along, I realized I that the tutorial itself was (obviously) made using OBS and was therefore a living example of a nice, basic OBS-made video. Bravo. Thanks, Justin!
You're welcome, Matt - so awesome to hear it 😃
Thank you Justin! When my colleague initially shared his screen to introduce OBS to me, it seemed complicated. You took the intimidation out of something new in a very short period of time, and I appreciate this.
Learning new software can be difficult, but I'm glad that the clear and concise approach made it easier for you 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
Thanks Justin for this Step-by-step lesson. I've long downloaded OBS App but could not be able to use it because of its complexity. Now I'm confident of loading videos to my empty CZcams channel. May God bless you.
That's great, all the best! - Hazel, PV Team

Love it - I’ve used OBS for a while and I just wish (and hope in an update) they give Mac users Chat decks to have the chat on the side like PC users have.
Great tutorial 🤜🏻
Thanks, John Paul 👍

Out of all the OBS tutorials I’ve watched this is by far the best explanation of this software! Thank You!
Wow, that's awesome to hear! You're welcome!
You. Are. My. Hero. Thank you so SO much for creating this super thorough walk through -- I used OBS in 2019 for our first season of the podcast and attempting to relearn it today -- GAME CHANGER! Thank you so much for your energy!!
That's great to hear - you're welcome! 😃 - Hazel, PV Team
This was exactly what I was looking for. This was an awesome beginning video to help me get started. I know this took you a good amount of time to create, so thank you for taking the time to do it. Excellent!
Glad you made it here, Rob - you're welcome! 🙏
It is awesome! Thank you God!
THIS WAS FREAKING AMAZXING
Thanks
Was browsing CZcams just to figure out how to start YouTubing and specifically using OBS. Well three vids in this is the best one so far and very detailed in me learning all the screen setup in the software. I’ll have to even revisit and rewatch this vid again so I understand everything. It never goes to say if you make a tutorial explain it properly so a new person can understand and know how to use the thing your explaining and this was explained in detail I needed and will help me on my first video. But you got me as a new subscriber.
All the best - great to have you here! 👍
Wow! This is a very comprehensive and easy to understand tutorial for OBS. Much appreciated that you created this Justin - it has inspired me to take the leap to Live recording. You have shown all the various use cases (screen I was not sure sure of creating). I am definitely saving it for watching again ... until I become an OBS fundi. Kudos JB.
So awesome to hear it, Kay - wishing you all the best! 😃 - Hazel, PV Team
Hands down the best tutorial on OBS. Clear and easy to understand, for a novice like me. Great work. Thanks heaps.

Appreciate the great feedback - no problem 👍

I agree. I have been searching for a good video that don't just tell you something here and there and without all the stupid stuff in the middle lol.
This is by far the best video I have found. Just need to know a little more. I will keep searching his videos to see if maybe he teaches the screen record, and if you can record a section of the screen.
I am new to Linux and have to learn all new software after dumping windows.

The best OBS tutorial I've seen yet! Love it for it made things so easy to understand. thanks for the great work
You're welcome - so awesome to hear it!
Thanks. I needed this for one of my jobs where we need to record virtual tours. I wasn’t liking the idea of holding my cellphone up and recording a screen for an hour.
Plus with this I can do so much more than just screen capturing.
I am a beginner to OBS so this video has been super helpful Justin, thank you. I am trying to record a tutorial demonstrating how to use an online ordering website. I am using a highlight for my cursor. When I play back my video I can see the cursor but it doesn't record the highlight. I downloaded the cursor highlighter from Microsoft. Is there a setting I am missing?
I have looked at many OBS tutorials, finally someone who is an outstanding teacher, who knows his subject and how to present it. I would pay money for this one!!!
Wow, so awesome to hear that! Thanks! 😊
You are just amazing. This is the simplest tutorial I have ever come across so efficient and engaging. Thank you Justin
You're welcome - see you in the next tutorial.
Simply A-MA-ZING. Thanks Justin.

Great tutorial but when I load obs studio its just disappear I can't very explain very well I need help with this
Oh my gosh! I think I can do this once I figure out how to get OBS to let go of my webcam. My OBS is set up with virtual cables for audio and video (A + B) so I can hear my Zoom participants through OBS. Unfortunately, I am unable to get the webcam out of this mode so I can use it as an actual webcam for facebook or You Tube (sigh). Anyhow, I'm a lot farther now than I was and you've made pulling a thoughtful video together so easy. Brilliant!
