Ummm, this is amazing, incredible. May the Lord preserve you for more Kingdom service.
Great video, churches around the world had to make a quick live stream set up!! You are a blessing!! The Gospel is reaching the unreachable now!! Romans 8:28 ALL THINGS
This was EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! We have a small church plant, and have been using Zoom. We want to continue this for some new people who have joined us from farther away after we get back together. This will help me get this set up! Thank you so much!!!
Wonderful to do this; kind, gracious, clear, thorough, and done in love for the sake of our Savior. Thank you much.
This is the best video out there to talk about setting up live stream. I found it a month too late, but it's quick and no nonsense. Good work.
I am a minister for a very small church and have had my hands full trying to get our live stream working for worship services as well as conferencing for my weekly Bible discussions. I am a former IS person and also a web guy so I feel right at home with the technology. The audio/video is a different story. I have watched hours and hours of UA-cam videos and this video has been the most helpful for live stream video information!!! Thank you so much! You answered some very important questions I had.
Hi brother,
Thanks for sharing this very helpful procedure for setting up Livestream for our church. This is our Time, declaring the LOVE of God for all the nations.
God bless you and more power.

Thank you so much bro! This is so easy to understand. This will be a big help for our church, for better live streaming. Godbless!
Greetings from Philippines!
Cam Link definitely works for Mac. Just another reference point. Team, if it’s avail to you, it’s an option. Great video. Thanks!
This was technical for a beginner but your precise and enthusiastic teaching made it palatable, I also realized at the end of the video that the ambient music helped alot too haha.... thank you and God bless
Ours is using a basic ASUS laptop, with no inbound inputs. We're using the laptop camera for video, and a Zoom H5 to throughput and mix the audio, with a JBL small box speaker to feed audio to it. We are using the pastor's UA-cam channel.
I have NEVER commented on a video in my life but this was so thorough. You really increased my confidence
This has been the BEST video information-wise to help with my church live stream...Thank you brotha!
I'm the AV guy for Calvary Chapel Northtowns (and the worship leader). We just did our first online service two Sundays ago because of the shutdown. We used OBS that first service to stream to UA-cam. For our second service (yesterday), we used vMix so we could stream to both UA-cam and Facebook at the same time. We have a mixer that digitizes the audio and sends it straight to the computer, and we're using a very basic webcam for video. Our first video was a bit rough, and we're quickly learning how to make a more polished video. I think a lot of churches are in the same position - needing to quickly set up online streaming for the first time.
Can you just send me the link bro...

Wow, thank you for that video. Our German school's planning to livestream the divine service for our graduents. I was about to cancel that, but maybe we'll suceed with your advices...
Thanks for sharing this! May the Lord bless you and your church!
This was by far the best streaming video I've seen. Keep up the good work.
We use the CamLink 4k on our Mac setup for our church. it works just fine and its plug and play.
We are using a couple similar adapters (one for a camcorder feed, another to bring Powerpoint slides from a Windows PC) to bring video into our 2015 Macbook Pro... I tested quite a few before settling on these ... which have a pass-through HDMI port, which cuts down on adapters on my desk: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BVP5CLM/
Brilliant, what a great help your are. To the point , clear and concise and a great voice! Thank you very much.
Just want to clarify. We use the Elgato cam link with our iMac and OBS in order to stream our services and it works 100% fine. Not sure what you were mentioning when you said that it is not compatible with macs.
Tablesauce yeah, same case here.
Thank you! I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm trying to figure this out for my church by myself and it's rough but I believe that I'll be able to do this with this video.
So helpful! Wish I had seen your video before going thru all those steps blind. Got it working!
This was a big help for my church and let us know what is out there. Thanks a ton, stay blessed brother.
Dude, this is so easy to understand. Thanks!
Hi. Really well put together video that I am sure will help many people out there during these extraordinary times.
I will be looking to livestream my mothers cremation service this coming Friday. Due to covid restrictions on the island on which I live we are limited to 10 people at the service. We are also limited to just 15 minutes for the entire service. No point complaining, we just need to work with what we have and make the best of it - as my Mum would say.
The crematorium will not provide any form of help in this, nor do they allow access to wifi, so the whole thing will need to be done using an iPhone on a tripod and livestreamed over facebook using 4G. I was going to use a Zoom conference, but there is really no need for the 2 way video element - it is more about freinds and family that are not allowed to attend watching what is going on and leaving comments.
My concern is mostly about the sound, and avoiding any unfortunate noise that might otherwise drown out the words being spoken or not capture the music being played.
Any words of advice or warning on any of this would be welcomed.
Many thanks
Julian
You have such a clear voice and you made it simple even for beginners like myself
Thank You all the way from South Africa. Im working with no budget as we stand but i believe i need to make a start and see what i can put out there with the resources I have God bless stay safe all
For anyone on an extreme budget, check out the iVCam app on your phone's appstore. If you have a decent phone it's a good sub $20 solution to the camlink (sold out almost everywhere) and video camera solution offered here. There is a free version but the resolution is limited to pre DVD SD quality but it would allow you to test it before buying the app, however if you want HD resolution (and you do) you have to pay the small amount they want for the app.
His comments on audio are spot on though, I don't have a better method of doing that for cheaper than what was mentioned here. A cheap 2 channel audio interface is really about as cheap as you can go to get that done. That said you can obtain used ones for less than $100.
iVCam is an app that lets you use your cell phone as a web cam over your LAN wifi and since most people are walking around with decent phone cameras these days it's actually a respectable option in a pinch. If you want to mount it to a tripod there are cell phone tripod mounts on amazon for about $15-20, I recommend the Manfrotto Universal Smartphone Clamp as the cold shoe mount was a nice touch and it seems pretty well built.
Also I realize this sounds like I am somehow affiliated with the app or something, I am not. I was just impressed with how well it worked on the cheap and wanted to share.
Thank you so much for this!! This is exactly what I've been looking for
We use a ATEM blackmagic mini Pro for our church. The usb exit goes in the computer which is connected through Livstream studio 6 to the internet. The audio signal comes to Mic 1 of ATEM from the mixer Yamaha TF3.
GREAT Video...we are already up streaming, but as the "tech guy" in the area I'm sending this to all the people that have said "GAH! How do we start streaming!"
First class video. Technical - but clear with logical explanations. Thanks very much!
Great info! My church has been doing pre-recorded sermon messages which I've been editing, but as we slowly re-open we want to explore live streams. Thank you for this, God Bless.
This was on my recommended list when I got on UA-cam this morning. Thanks for the tips. I'm looking forward to learning more to help out our church livestream our services and make it easy for our team. New subscriber.
Some churches I work for want to stream for no other reasons but they feel that’s the only way to reach those members that have decided they’re not ready to come back to church and also because it’s the “thing” to do. “All the churches are now streaming live services so we have to also”.
This was amazing!! Made something that is so overwhelming into a do able project. Thank you so much!
My church does livestreams since years - usually we have about 20 or 30, who watch, but in this time we get so much people. We did some praise and worship times on a normal working day at 11 am and got about 200 people.
Plus all the people that watch later, are about 800 and more.
Big help, great video. God bless you
Thanks for your concern for our smaller churches who don't have the technical expertise we would like to make live streaming easier. A couple of issues we are dealing with:
(1) We are using a Canon Vixia HF G21 camera and a ClearClick Video Capture Stick. We also used a Scarlett interface between the mixer and the laptop. Last Sunday we used Zoom conferencing software, but the video and audio are out of sync by about .5 second. How can we get them synced?
(2) We had originally taken a feed from the mixer and fed it into the camera's mic jack. The video and audio record perfectly on the SD card, but the audio will not feed to Facebook.
I am the pastor, and unfortunately I am the most tech-savvy person in our church. I have invested way too many hours in this endeavor that I need to spend on other areas of ministry, so allow me to thank you in advance for any suggestions and ideas. Blessings to you.
omg Godddd the setup of this video is superb i had to comment what gear did you use for it
Thank you so much, this has been helpful.
Best video I've seen on this topic! Thank you sir!
I actually sent back the Delgato Cam Link as I could not get it to be full frame on my Windows laptop. However, you said it doesn't work on Mac. Yes, the Delgato does which threw me as I could get it to work on my Mac, but not my Windows laptop. I was told my i3 laptop was not the right processor by Delgato. I actually bought a cheap $6.95 USB interface on eBay that works better than the Delgato. It actually works quite well on my i3 laptop using a Canon camcorder for the camera. As far as audio interface, I'm plugging from the headphone output on the church console directly into the mic input of the camcorder. Works great. I don't think I spent more than $500 for our church's whole set up.
Improving the Church: Create Apologetics programs in local churches, get active on social media, reach out to non believers with kindness & love, create good quality Christian UA-cam channels, create Christian memes, create more Christian podcast.
This video was very informative! Thank you!!!
Incorrect, the Elgato Cam Link 4K is definitely compatible with Apple products. I use it all the time on multiple apple machines.
Ian Hazzard what do you need to set up the an apple MacBook?
@@evercontreras7028 Nothing! It's plug-and-play. The other elgato capture cards have problems but the Cam Link works great!
Which programs have you used it with? My church got a Mac Mini for running Pro Presenter right before the ban on services and I had to find out the hard way that the Elgato HD60 won’t work with any program other than Elgato’s proprietary Game Capture. I tried a hack that should make it available in OBS as an NDI source but all that did was crash OBS every time I’d try to set it up as a video source.
@@rickbiessman6084 the cam link 4k works without the software. You are correct that the HD60 only works with the software.
@@IanHazzard Ah, that’s great to know. Thought this applied to all Elgato HDMI cards. Thanks for clearing that up!
Nice sharing myfriend!
What a nice content!
Keep safe always with your family.
More S.bers!
I used Elgato HD60 S+ with a Sony Camera 6400 and installed OBS on my macpro computer laptop and work fine need a hub stay and go and connect the hdmi from camera and ethernet cable straight to the stay and go which have a ethernet connection and I had good audio and no lagging in video and audio. That is the most basic set up I you can have. It is simple and portable. Really important run a internet speed in your computer while you have everything connected and run the setup wizard in OBS for most optimized settings. I hope this will help. The first streaming went well via Wifi but not was too reliable suggested to be wired. I hope this will help to have you running for your services. Also if the you can not stream in the Pastor house, suggest he sending the video in facebook or a youtube account where no ones knows he upload the video and then you download the video in your computer and make any rough edits. Have a nice day.
Praying for this in our small church in the Philippines someday. Thanks for sharing this.
Great stuff bro. We are going to share this with all our SCBC churches.
so much God in you and your speech. God bless u.
I used a Webcam and USB Mic with OBS. I setup a stripped down worship area. I found my upload speeds were really slow so I'm gonna record ahead of time and upload for a premiere.
Thank You! I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this and sorta had an idea how it works, but so many other videos aren’t clear! Thank you for making this easy to understand! God Bless!
This was helpful. Grace to you and your team
From South Africa
Thank you 4 the info brother. Stay blessed.
Real good over view... awesome brother. God bless!!
You did a great job explaining. Many of have small ministries .
Thank you sir!!! Very very nice presentation quick and easy to understand if you really need to do this
Great points!
Very concise, I appreciate the hard work,
God bless bro. That was succinctly taught. Kindly confirm to me how many streaming destinations can i simultaneously stream to using obs ?
Only one. You can try software like castr.io . Works great
Your a good guy!!. Thanks for this. Take Care
Hi, blackbar, love the video, is clear and straight forward. I am working on live streaming from different location , do you have any suggestions/tips as how i can go about doing that? Thank you.
Wow! Amen,this is by far complete ans easy to follow tutorial bless you.
Excellent. Will pass on to our newly elected tech team :)
Thank you so much for the video. It help me a lot.
Una buena propuesta nunca deja de ser intrtesante. Compartimos.
Best instruction for fast broadcast
If using a Phone: Turn Airplane Mode ON. That way you won't get any texts or calls while you are streaming on your device.
Thank you brother.
good info bro love it
Thank you, really useful 🙌🏻
Wow super way are thinking of how we could do this.The Best way.thanks
Thank you for the video, great information!
Thank you so much for this video!
What a blessing! Thanks!
Dude, i can suggest you to try the most lowcost device for capturing HDMI video signal ever.
It calls RULLZ. Cost 10$. You can find it on Aliexpress. It really works and it gives you fantastic quality for it's price. 4k/60hz (as disclaimer says, but really u can get 1080p/60hz and it's guarantied).
And you can plug them like 3 or 4 devices in your streaming pc and get really cool multicam stream in like 40$ can u imagine this?
Tell me if you have any questions about this usb plug. I try to help you with this
Thank you for this valuable information
i love this thank you
We just use a tripod mounted cell phone live streamed to our Facebook account using the audio and video from the phone.
Extremely helpful! Thanks!
Very good video about the content thnx for the help on streaming
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Good stuff guys. Thanks.
Great video....! God Bless
Really inspired
What a legend!
Thank you very much. i will to set up in our church.
Brother if you believe in Yeshuah (Jesus) who is the Son of God the Father you know you should understand that Sunday worship is okay if not thought of as a Shabbat but when you think it is the Shabbat my Brother you are changing the holy day which is Shabbat (Friday sunset to Saturday sunset) I love you in God I would love to chat and hopefully show you how the "Church" is broken the congregation is small but we can come together in Yeshuah!
Muchas gracias por tu orientación. Todo fue muy útil y fluido. Fue al punto y muy beneficioso. Dios los bendiga.
Thank you!!!
Thank you for this video. We badly need help.
The Cam Link 4k and HD 60 are listed as being compatible with mac on Elgato's website. Is this incorrect?
Jason Swanson Yes, I use it with my MacBooks. It works great. (The 4K)
A solid and to the point
On Facebook, you can skip OBS and just click live
Definitely appreciate the setup video you have here. Would you happen to have a direct link to the specific blackmagic ultrastudio mini recorder?
Excellent, concise and straightforward for us beginners. :-)
So, I attempted to hook up an Atem-mini from our sound board. Using a Samsung S10 to record the Worship service, upon playing back all was fine uh until the 20 minute mark and a loud hum came in thg through the end of the 45 minute session. Now, I was picking up my audio through the headphone jack. Is that problematic in itself, though the first 20 minutes was fine? Thank you...a first time viewer. :-)
Thank you for this!!!
Thanks so much for this!
If I'm coming out of my camera via HDMI to a video capture card and out of my mixer to a Scarlett interface for audio, how does OBS know to exclude the audio coming from the camera's internal mic?
Sorry on the multiple questions, why would we need use Stream Key with OBS SOftware and not use the Facebook Camera directly. Well I know I am not able to use the Live Camera directly use Canon RF800 and Elgato and hence the question
