I'd just like to say I really appreciate your quick and to-the-point video. I have a presentation I'd like to record with multiple video inputs and this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. VERY helpful!
Wow wee - you have given me idea's for playing around with OBS. Not specifically using camera, just generally capturing the screen 👍 Once again... THANK YOU !!
I need some help: I somehow figured out how to add a second camera view on my own, but it stopped working when I tried to adjust something (sorry, I don't remember exactly what I did) and now I cannot get a second view when I add the second source, i.e. the program displays a black screen as the second source. I checked in my computer's camera feed to make sure the second camera was functioning properly, and I can clearly see the second camera's view. But for some reason, no matter how many tutorials I watch, I cannot figure out how to activate the view for the second camera. The only way I can do so is if I unplug the main camera. Can anyone help me troubleshoot adding a second video capture device? Any suggestions would be most welcome!
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand lol now I really have no idea, but something worked and now it's working! 🥳 [edit: thanks for you reply, I wasn't sure if you would check the comments]
Quick question. Would I be able to use3 of the exact same camera to keep the image quality consistent, or is OBS not smart enough to recognize 3 individual cameras of the same type?
I have 3 video sources for my current setup (1 camera, 2 webcams) but 3 cameras will require more: 3 video capture cards and how powerful your computer is to process especially for higher resolutions/frame rates.
My computer shows the 3 cameras are working properly and are updated however obs can't find the image of one of the cameras even though my pc tells me it is working properly.
Dummy here, as far as the new technology.... IF I am using a POE+ Gigabit Switch 100/1000 OBS should be able to recognize all cameras on the network am I correct? And do you think it would have enough bandwidth to pass the data for the pc to received and stream?
I added 2 1080p cameras to OBS, it freezes either 1 or both cameras after a few minutes, I have to unplug/plug to reestablish the video. I have an i7 16gb ram gtx1660 , I would think it should handle it. Any ideas?
Hey Brent I'm not entirely sure as I haven't yet experienced the consistent freezing issue although I have had video source issues but just like yourself, once I unplug/plug things worked.
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand I removed my Pengo 4k grabber from the equation, replaced it and seems to be working fine. NVIDIA said my gtx 1660 will not support 2 1080p cameras but its working ok, some flickering, I may need to dumb down to 720p.
I am looking into a 4 camera setup and Game capture (from another pc feed). I have been hearing that NVIDIA does have issues with this. At the same time, I Have also heard that you really need to separate USB hubs for each input. So not only is the Processor an issue, but the Video card is a big one as well as the capabilities of any PCIe USB/Vidoe capture devices. I am easily pushing $2500 for a pc build to do all of this and I don't see anyway possible that a Laptop can handle this kind of processing power with the limited input capabilities.

Hi, how can add a video source remotely? I want to capture a live video from someone who is at a different location. thank you
Hmmm not sure on how to do that or if it's even possible 🤔
I found out that I can't unless I use a different platform such as real stream which I am using now. Thank you
Thanks so much for the tips
You're most welcome Robert!

Not sure myself and that's odd if it was working before🤔

how do you add 3 cam video sources in one scene?
I created a scene with multiple video sources with each camera using its own USB port

@@analuizadealmeida I've run into that too. I've fixed it by either restarting OBS, re-adding the camera as a source or rebooting my PC altogether.

As you can probably see, I have a very simple setup so not sure myself 🤔
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand Just thought I would ask. Thanks for your honesty
Hey, how do you make the video (square) bigger?
just drag the corner
Great thank's, but I'd like several video tracks I can manage on Premiere. ;)
Hmmm maybe you can try using OBS multiple profiles. I made a video below if you're interested:
