    I am a lecturer and this current global pandemic situation has meant I have needed to switch to online teaching. I really wanted to ensure students continue to receive a high quality education (after all, it’s not cheap, right?). After much research, I realised the Live Streamers are the people who I need to learn from to create a better experience for my students. In particular, your tutorials and resources have been EXTREMELY useful. So thank you, on behalf of me and all my students, for allowing me to ‘up my game’. Heck, at this rate, and with my setup, I may as well go all in and start playing video games live too!....

    It's not only difficult to find half-decent tutorials on streaming. It's nearly impossible to find a creator who doesn't bore you to death by the end of it. I always find these engaging, helpful and entertaining. It helps that you can tell he's genuinely excited to help out new streamers and teach them some tricks of the trade. Alpha is like what Peter McKinnon did for photography tutorials. Thanks man!

Also showing what you use and where to get them is like icing on the cake. You're a true G and as soon as I wake up tmrw, hopefully, my next stream is gonna go from just a plain gameplay screen to a full out near professional stream, thank you

    OBS is fantastic and it helped A LOT in our remote teaching regime during C19 thing. We could stream from laboratory directly in a multicam set-up, without the need to prepare videos in advance, saving time on recording, editing and rendering. We fed 3 cams and screen capture in various scene configurations and used virtual cam as an input for MS Teams. Worked like a charm. 100% live interaction with students.

Especially during these tough pandemic times of physical distancing. I’d like to learn more about setting up scenes and transitions. I realized quickly on that using the hot keys on my keyboard is a hot mess so I will be probably expensing a stream deck. For now the hot keys will have to work. I’d also like to learn how you quickly and seamlessly zoom into your face and back out and how to change the cursor on the display capture vice having the tiny arrow. Thanks for posting.

    This is nice to see, after a while. I'm moving from Streamlabs to OBS.
    Edit: I started to make the switch after watching Nutty's videos about it, and I realized that regular OBS is just better, and it has more features, and *I think* uses less hardware.

    I am SO glad this popped on my feed! I am not new to gaming as I am 48 and started out on the Atari system. I know to record and upload videos to my YT channel Mad Ferret Studios. I have used computers since the day they came out available for the public. But when it comes to using OBS for live streaming I am very much overwhelmed. I want to start live streaming now that our channel is slowly growing. And this is a whole new beast of an area. And I have to echo the sentiments of another commentary, I feel like a fricking non-tech savvy granny. Thank you for taking the time to walk us newborn noobs through. Looking forward to starting streaming soon!

    Ive been playing a bit around with OBS (Im just getting into streaming, im more interestes in just recording editing but i gave it a go).
    I tried streamyard with fortnite and a webcam on me, it was unplayable, no rendering ingame. (I belive because i send to streamyard, it sends back to me and then to youtube)
    Tryed the same woth OBS, much better results but when a few players interact on screen it goes to hell.
    Again not padticulary interested in streaming fortnite but i was testong the limits
    Tryed streaming Project Winter (far less PC power needed) everything went much better.
    Anything software wise i can do to improve basic stream quality?
