THANK YOU so much for keeping the bloopers. You could have easily edited them out, but your easy-going real time working is so helpful in itself. Thanks again!
Great video, Cat. Thank you!
Lots of vibes and positive energy form you & Ron
Your videos are excellent and your personality makes learning even better. Thank you.
Thank you so much 😊
For my audio control I use voice meeter potato (I know meter is spelled wrong but it’s how they spell it) it’s really great for using a virtual cable and of course has the mixing board so you can run all your software’s audio through each channel and adjust accordingly. Like Ron said, it DEFINITELY takes some time, even for someone who knows audio, to wrap your head around the virtual cable, in audio app settings you choose the virtual input which is really the softwares output - like he said have patience I found voice meeter potato has the most tutorial videos and the easiest to use, in a lot of ways it kind of fills in the blanks after you start setting up. It’s also a free open source software for Windows anyways I don’t know about Mac.
Hey Cat. Great tutorial! So easy with Skype. Can't wait to try it out. On the audio question, I am using VB virtual audio cable effectively to into Zoom. What has been a game changer is the Audio Monitor plug-in for OBS that came out earlier this year. With that it is so much easier to control (mute, monitor, levels, etc.). You no longer have to mess with Advanced Audio Properties.
Thank you for sharing about the Audio Monitor plug-in!
Thanks for your time. This was really helpful!
Fantastic tutorial, Thank you so much for this.
Great tutorial, so lovely and smart. Thanks!
Super helpful Cat. Thank you!
Thank you! very clear and the little issue when Ron froze, help to know that setting things up not always works at the first try ;)
Thank you very much indeed Cat... It was very helpful for me 👍👍👍
Thank you Cat for the awesome guide! If using your setup as an example, do you know if it would be possible for Ron to share his screen as a different scene in OBS? Or even have his screen shared while both faces on screen, kind of like what you can do with Streamyard?
Great tutorial! I struggled with the delay on Skype, but there was no delay whatsoever when I tried on Discord.
Thanks for sharing the comparison.
Hey! Some awesome local artists from my neck of the woods, north of Toronto! I came here for the OBS info and ended up learning about some local artists.
Win-win!
Very charming ... I can't stoping watching this video ... Thank a lots. what about WhatsApp calling ?
Thank you, you made it so easy to do!😃
You’re welcome 😊
i like ur vids thanks for the tuts
Hi Cat, today on team replay. I moved my office/studio into a different room yesterday and that took way longer than expected. 🤣
All good! Hope the move went well.
Yea. You should set the audio monitor in obs to be the virtual audio cable. The basic way to understand the virtual cable is, that is a virtual audio device. Just like loopback in Mac creates virtual audio devices, VB Audio cable is a virtual audio input. So whatever audio output you assign to it, it will route the audio in that way.
The audio monitor option from obs is an output. So if you choose the virtual audio cable there. Whatever audio monitor comes from obs will be an input for that VB cable.
Inputs and outputs. Hope this makes sense. :)
You are awesome.. thank you so much
Thank you 😊
Hi Cat, Thanks for the demo SKYKE NDI OBS. I would like to know MS Teams and also Zoom. Especially Zoom, I only can do OBS > NDI> Zoom. What about Zoom > NDI > OBS.
Beautiful and intelligent woman...thank you!
Beautiful smile 😍
Question. If a guest and I recorded a podcast with separate video. Can I place preRecorded video into the Obs overlays?
I wish there was something like this for Teams.
I got to where I initiated the Meeting on my PC with Skype and used my Tablet as a fake "Second Guest", to try all of this out. I got my feeds all lined up in OBS and was surprised to see my "Second Guest" side by side in OBS, after I had myself Join the Meeting. The thing is... I hit Record on Skype and got the audio, but my audio was not in the OBS Recording. That is, I was doing an internal recording that was saved in my previously-specified folder, but should I not have Recorded in Skype first? I have a feeling either one recording 'grabbed' the audio from the other OR that the NDI Source didn't pick up the audio from the selected NDI Sources, even though I was 'seeing' the feeds? :)
Hi .. I need to understand how to do a live broadcast on UA-cam with Ecamm Live so that the guests are from Zoom? Do I need a Loopback? Please explain the method to me
Hey love , I use Zencastor would I need the ndi I think you called it 🙈
hello thank you for your amazing help, im new user to obs and I would ike to knw how can I get the similar free overlays you showed in your tutorial... thanks again , you are really amazing and very helpfull
They are easy to make! I have some videos in my Create Your Own Graphics playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLvHSfPVVKOLHKZDD7K_WfODTqvS2uHfRx.html
The problem I find, is the mix of cameras, so assuming you have one decent camera that you are using to stream with OBS, then you can't duplicate that for Skype. So essentially the person you are talking to through skype will probably have to deal with a grainy built in webcam unless you have the budget to buy another decent one just for Skype. Its not a major problem I suppose, but it would be nice that the camera can duplicate.
THANKS 10,000,000 Times For doing this tutorial !!!!!!!!! This Video is more than GREAT!!! greetings from Arkansas!
You're very welcome!
what camera you're using for talking head?
Hi Cat, great tutorial, just wanted to know where you got the overlay pack, thanks a lot
I make my own overlays 😊 I have videos showing how I do it: ua-cam.com/play/PLvHSfPVVKOLHKZDD7K_WfODTqvS2uHfRx.html
I also have two overlay packs available for sale: catmulvihill.com/digital-downloads/
@@CatMulvihill Life has to treat you AMAZING. You are not just a talented and beautiful young girl but the way i saw you in the video , you really care about helping people how to use these platforms!!! GOD bless you young beautiful lady !!! and thanks a lot!
Thanks for the tutorial! Only a question:How can I avoid moving my computer to center my webcam image?
If you have some room to zoom in on your camera, you could adjust your camera in OBS (zooming in means you have some extra room to adjust the positioning).
@@CatMulvihill I have to move my pc to positionate my image, I don't understand what do you mean about "extra room".
I can help you cat, a few schoolboy errors with the NDI sources. Critically just add one NDI source in a full screen a scene and then add that scene into a source.
Are you required to make a scene for every combination of guests? Like you have 1 guest, then 2 guests, then 3 guests.... Can OBS dynamically allow any number of guests on the screen?
Hi Cat, Using OBS/Zoom, all now default, desktop audio. Looking to bring in guests thru Skype, and use VB cable to route audio from OBS to Zoom. I am helping for one of non-profit and looking to get done, bought VBCables also but initial run was not success, so left it as the sound room is all time engaged and as it is working we dont touch now. Appreciate if you could give some reference videos/articles. Thanks
I haven't used VB cable myself, but I know there are videos out there about how to use them. I do hope you can find a good teacher for this. It may be a while before I can learn it/teach it.
What did you do when Skype froze to reset?
I have no option for any Source Name when going into the drop down, even though I have my friend right here in Skype. NDI is enabled in Skype as well. What gives?
It looks like skype calls aren't always free. And you have to make a skype call to make this work, correct? And if its not free, then what's the point? Am I missing something? Restream has free trials too. Please help. Advice?
how about if you have multiple guests in a skype call, how does that work ?
Would love to do this same exact thing but with Jitsi Meet. Could use some guidance. Also, what software do you use for lower thirds and titling. My channel is brand new and so still exploring whether to use NDI, virtualcam or what not with OBS, but have some experience, just not with all that can be done with OBS.
Did you ever figure this out?
@@kjergens1 Yeah, not using Jitsi, just use video ninja for this and I am creating my own graphics and lower thirds .
@@RadioTeal Thanks for sharing! How is VDO Ninja working out for you? I need to record a podcast with just one guest, and I am thinking of going this route. The Skype or Zoom route seem too finicky. I also want to record the episodes at 720p , preferably at 1080.
@@awayre VDO ninja works fine for this. You really only need your OBS Studio and VDO to make a great podcast. Even if it is going to be audio only.
@@RadioTeal Thank you so much! Is it fairly easy for the guest to understand the instructions and participate? My guests won't necessarily be highly skilled in messing around with their camera and audio settings.
It’s the same process for “Stream Lab OBS”? Or does works only in “OBS”?
Hi Diego. I used StreamLabs a long, long time ago. I use OBS now… and if I can remember, this process is relatively the same. Open Skype, toggle “Allow NDI Usage” in settings, add the NDI source, and then add the screen graphics. The one question you might have is ‘How do I add an NDI source to StreamLabs?’ Again, it’s been a very long time since I used StreamLabs. But this is my humble guess. 🙏 hope this helps you!
@@calebmccool I have never used Stream Lab OBS, Before I used OBS and them Ecamm Live (Only for Mac, paid) But I was wondering why did you move from OBS to Stream Lab OBS? I thought that Stream Lab is better than OBS.
@@diegoescobar_ StreamLabs is a lot more user-friendly. But from my experience, OBS is much more customizable than StreamLabs - which obviously makes it more confusing. And not sure if this is true or not, but I've heard from people that OBS uses less pc resources than StreamLabs. I might go back to StreamLabs one day, but OBS is doing well for me right now 😄
@@calebmccool thank you! If OBS uses less resources and memory that’s means may that the computer works better right?
@@diegoescobar_ That's correct. If it's true that OBS uses less resources, then the computer can focus on other programs
Hello madam. Can you share me the overlays please or can you suggest me from where can I get ?
Was Ron able to see you? I tried this but I wasn’t able to see the other person I could hear them and they could see and hear me
Can you add two guests with Skype?
Hi cat does NDI work with Pc
Yes, it does!
@@CatMulvihill Thank You Cat…
I am an online radio dj, I want to be able to one be able to add someone that can talk over me and be broadcasted live. Second I want to be able to interview bands.
Hi Cat me again, I brought somebody with Skype, everything worked but the audio from Skype was out of sync , any Idea what I can do, thanks again!
I wish that was something I could help with, but audio tech is not my area of specialty 😢 I'm sorry that happened!
Might be worth trying an alternative method like VDO Ninja to see if that works better.
@@CatMulvihill thanks a lot again🙏
Would people pay for something that just works? Meaning, add a guest in one click using obs.
As soon as I added the NDI plug in now OBS does not work, I tried uninstalling and I cant even reinstall MY OBS now after hours of set up. I don't recommend this. Now I have to look for a new straming software because MY OBS will not work even after a new download. What happened here?????
How about obs zoom with 2 guests
oh my god i'm in late! oh that's okay your clock is unaccurate!
This was two years ago. Do you have any better free easier newer way please
NDI plugin no longer works in OBS
4:03 seconds to actually get to the point. With all due respect, a content creator's value has a lot to do with how efficient you can deliver on what they're looking for. If 3 minutes go by into your video and we're still learning about a guy named Ron, something's wrong. There are 59 comments now but hundreds more who didn't bother, opting to click off the video after 30 seconds when they realized they weren't going to get an answer anytime soon. Something to keep in mind.
I don’t understand how he came up under the source did he have to be invited to Skype then …
25 mins to say SKYPE is a bit overkill
Why are you interviewing a guy on a tutorial video?
