You mean like using the iMac as a monitor for your PS5? Not sure if you can because the iMac outputs HDMI not inputs. So it wouldn’t take an incoming HDMI signal from a console like a TV/Monitor would…
What is a good camera that you would recommend that is a good quality, but also a little cheaper in budget, when I wanted to move away from my Mac camera?
Good question! I have a list of these cameras you can get here: kit.co/DatSamurai/must-have-streaming-equipment-for-beginners-in-2023 Anything good will be around $60-70 starting off. If you can budget it, Elgato Cams are pretty good. The Facecam Neo is still coming out at around $99. But you could pick up the Facecam MK.2 for $150 or the previous gen for $130, but the $20 more isn’t bad to get the latest hardware. If you’re looking for less than $100, look into Logitech’s webcams. And if you want a one and done camera for all content creation, you can get the Sony ZV-E10 which is what I use. It’s $700 but for a mirrorless camera of this quality, it’s a steal. Chefs kiss for sure 👌🏾
@@DatSamuraiawesome!! Thanks for the feedback. Loved your video. I’ve been streaming from the PS5 directly to Twitch and it’s become a hassle. Definitely switching to OBS.
Use my phone camera, it's over wifi I believe. This is a Apple feature. If you're using a webcam or mirrorless camera, then you connect with an USB or HDMI out.
bro thank you so much for this, insanely helpful! i have a question, my game video is glitching in OBS app, how to fix it? i use PS 4 Pro, Macbook Pro, & Avangarde capture card.
Hey bro - Love the video, can you please explain how to connect an iphone to OBS and use it as a camera. I can't seem to connect my phone to my Mac. Thanks
Yo! So make sure you’re signed in to the same Apple ID account in both your Mac and IPhone. Try also hooking your phone up to your Mac via the usb c cable. That should bring up a window asking you if your Mac should trust your iPhone. Close out of OBS then re-open it and add a new video capture source and it should be there.
I have Mac Studio M1. Roland 400UHD does not show video in OBS application when connect via USB 3.2. Ideas? Streaming is my goal, but I cannot even achieve basic connect. ROLAND tech support is VERY difficult to contact.
Hey so I found a video from Roland explaining how to connect it to OBS: czcams.com/video/_uD762EHf7g/video.html Basically, if the Roland 400UHD doesn't have the USB Streaming port on the back, you'll have to use a capture card to convert the signal from the Mixer to USB and then add that capture card source as a Media Source to OBS. Check out the video I linked and that should help you out 🙏🏾
Here's a video on how to stream with OBS and PS5 without a capture card: czcams.com/video/Bd6-dY3KPkg/video.html For party chat, you can use Discord. Just have your friends connect to Discord on their PS5 and you got it. Then add the audio from Discord to OBS as an audio input source.
Hey man! Great video. Do you know how to read chat while gaming? It's driving me nuts that I can't create a transparent chat overlay with Mac and one monitor. It's as if I bought all of this equipment only to not interact with viewers.
There's a few ways. If you only have one screen your MacBook), you can do a popout chat window and have it on the side, or set your phone up and use it to read chat. You can also use third party plugins that pin your chat to the side of OBS. I use StreamElements.com. With stream elements. you can make a transparent chat overlay on your stream so people can see it.
@@DatSamurai Thank you! I was trying to figure out stream elements yesterday and could not, for whatever reason. I really appreciate the help- it's been a bit of a struggle lately.
You’re all good! I got a video on it already. The EASIST Way To Add Twitch Alerts To OBS czcams.com/video/Usaxycy7bTA/video.html It’s more focused on alerts but I can definitely do another video focusing chat. 🙏🏾
@@DatSamurai awesome, thanks! I'll check it out for sure. Streaming is fun, but it sure is a learning curve. If you do make that video, I'll make sure to check it out and like. There's definitely a place for this on YT as many of the good streamers teaching this posted about 3-4 years ago (OBS).
have tried so often to stream to YT via OBS and constantly get the message that Encoding Overloaded. Driving me nuts. Have messed with video resolution, bitrate, FPS, constantly get laggy useless stream that freezes up. At my wits end. Any more tips? CPU has storage space. Using a 2019 Macbook Air. Tried with capture card, then tried without one using Remote Play. Tried so many different things I am ready to give up.
Mac pre M1 chip isn’t too great to stream on, especially on an MacBook Air. Stream using the x264 encoder and use CBR as the bit rate. Drop your bitrate to 6000kbps. Try these setting for your case and let me know how it goes.
lol sorry this video assumes you got a capture card and ready to set up OBS. You don’t need one though but I highly recommend it. Here’s a video I’d did comparing different price points and qualities: czcams.com/video/2Qdx4wwwk90/video.htmlsi=xqlJUYEiMig3iHSh
To answer your question tho, your video encoder setting is probably on “Apple VT H264 Software Encoder.” Change it to “Apple VT H264 HARDWARE Encoder,” and you should get the CBR option.
Thanks, glad I could help. And B-frames usually controls the video quality of the stream. The more b-frames you use, the more complex the encoding will be for the stream. For Mac, I find turning B-frames off (defaulting to 0), results in a better stream. You can play around with it if you like. 2 b-frames is the default number most streamers use on PC with graphics cards.
Yeah, had another subscriber run into the same issue. You gotta crop and resize the window to get rid of the black bars. It the only work around I know for Mac at the moment. Check out this video I mead explore to do it: OBS Help for Ben | 04/25/2024 czcams.com/video/5mM203VZ1eI/video.html
Had this question come up in a call with another subscriber. Here’s a quick video I made explaining how to do it: czcams.com/video/5mM203VZ1eI/video.htmlsi=14rt_pEPgVdH-y7o
Switch your video encoder to x264. CBR should do up. If it doesnt, then use ABR. The Intel Macs have slightly different settings than the M series Macs.
No there are ways to stream to OBS without a capture card, but the quality isn’t that great and it highly depends on your internet speeds. Here’s a video on how to do it: czcams.com/video/Bd6-dY3KPkg/video.htmlsi=L6s5E5Nshafk3AY4
Make sure a your iPhone is up to date and signed in to the same Apple ID as your Mac. If that’s all good, the just restart your Mac and try it again. Usually this works.
Add it as a custom RTMP. You just need the destination URL and Stream Key and enter it into OBS. Bigo should give you that info when you’re setting up your live stream.
Sometimes it’s finicky. Make sure your iPhone and Mac are on the same internet network and Bluetooth is turned on. Close OBS and reopen it. If it still doesn’t pop up, close OBS, put your computer to sleep using the apple symbol at the top left, the try everything again. Also, if you have never connected your iPhone to your make a physically, try that first, then try it again.
Hi! I've been having issues with my gameplay audio using the HD60X, PS5, chat link cable and a Macbook pro. Do you use the Elgato capture utility for Mac on HDMI, Analog audio, or do you not use that at all? Thanks for any help in advance!
Hey! So I don’t use capture utility, but usually you’d use HDMI unless you are using a chat link. Then it should be analog. Try switching the audio to analog in capture utility and see if you get your audio back.
You mean like capturing you mobile game in OBS? You should have an audio input souce for that or when you capture the video, it should have audio attached. Let me know if this helps.
@@IkarusTroy57 I just tryed this myself. Make sure your phone isn't muted. Unmute your phone with the button on the side. I think the iPhone 15 has a button now for the mute switch. Just make sure your phone isn't muted lol
question what if you dont use a chat link pro? I am having a bit a of trouble. I wanted to know if I can do it in Bluetooth way as as far as like connecting it to my ps5 ? and using another mic for streaming? meanwhile I am using the headphones just for gameplay?
So the chat link just allows you to capture game chat audio while using your headset. If you don't have that setup, then you can stream like I do. I use a separate mic for my stream (Elgato Wave 3 plugged into my Mac), a completely separate mic for the PS5 chat (Plugged via USB into the front of the PS5), and Bluetooth headphones connected to my Mac to hear the game. I just monitor the Game Capture Audio in OBS. There's no delay in the sound.
@@DatSamurai okay so I use the 4k capture card from TikTok and I’m using a MacBook Pro and I have a adapter for it to connect it to the capture card and I’m using obs as well. I just want to be sure about the audio. The mic is for the viewers to hear you and the headphones is just for The game audio correct ? What if you play online with friends wouldn’t it be an echo?
@@DatSamurai also I wanted to know how to get good video quality I’m only using webcam from the MacBook like whenever I start to record myself it says that encoded is reached and to lower it down how much fps you recommend?
No because the audio you’re capturing is only from the PS5 via hdmi not your headset. Party chat and Game chat are two different things. Party (your friends in a private chat) and Gamechat (randoms in the lobby and on your team). In your audio settings, you can change the party chat output to be HDMI instead of headphones. That way, your stream will hear your friends in your party chat. You talk to them via a separate mic plugged into the PS5 and you hear everything through OBS.
You’re on PS5 or Xbox? If PS5, you need either a chat link so you can use your headset and controller audio, or in the audio setting you can change your party audio to HDMI so the capture card picks it up.
