ChronicMayhem

Oh yaya

I haven't been on DC much

Thercio

And Discord doesn't show any context (or content) in the server log.

you could say we...nibbed him in the butt (edited)

Oh god

Should i stream on twitch and YouTube or should i stick with only twitch (edited)

Pick the platform you feel has the best tools for your content

7:16 PM

You can always try things out, but don't over-stretch what you do just because you can do it, instead of focusing on what you can do best with higher quality

I want to stream on YouTube and twitch because on YouTube no one follows my twitch and i will try to stream on both and if it won't work I'll stick to twitch

How was everyones Friday?

ChronicMayhem

How was everyones Friday?

It was good, finally had my internet stabilized

Hi guys this is my first time on discord I’m a new streamer to twitch and Facebook

Welcome

Thank you

Welcome

Goooooooood morning ho's

Good morning!

Good morning everyone happy Tuesday!

Hi wondering if you have any advise I’m trying to hit level up on Facebook gaming and my views are good but I’m just not getting followers I have a reach of nearly 3k

How does Facebook reach work? Like if they put it in a page is that considered an impression even tho the person may not have even seen it in their feed?

yoo

1:08 AM

anyone got labyrinthrine wanna stream with me ?

I have it, but you posted that at 3am my time so we may not have compatible timezones XD

Hey i have a random question. Do you think donating streamers with hot looks is often based on their looks more than their personality?

I’m sure there are sometimes when they are actually funny and good at the game, but I’m also sure that the other times it is exactly that

I’m a streamer and as a women the comments about my body goes to far ( for reference I’m a chubby woman so it’s not nice comments) I wish people would watch for the skill not for my boobs

Original message was deleted or could not be loaded.

I mean that’s a little bit rude considering you don’t know what I look like however I actually really enjoy gaming and despite being female some respect for skill level from people watching my streams is not too far fetched to hope for

Original message was deleted or could not be loaded.

I’ve profited from my looks in another line of work I just don’t bring that line of work into my streams and yes I would have a problem with it because it sexualisation of women based on looks it’s messed up

4:13 PM

It’s why I don’t use any image of my face on branding or my profile picture

4:20 PM

At what point did i complain dude i also made no comment of race or a patriarchal comment the original conversation was regarding how all streamers no sex mentioned earn more if they’re hot that was it you’ve blown a harmless comment out of proportion dude get off your high horse

4:22 PM

Dude I mentioned boobs seriously because I dared to make a comment you’ve started this and shown your true colours

4:23 PM

I’m not even gonna continue I’m not gonna have my character called into question f that we all start out somewhere and you’ve just proven here is not the connections I want thank you everyone else for allowing me to join anyway

hu

4:33 PM

hiu

4:33 PM

hi

Well that was an interesting read to run into after work

10:10 PM

Looks like both are gone now?

10:10 PM

Simple reminder to everyone - just be nice - don't start fights or anything crazy

hey, someone come watch me die to jevil over and over in discord stream channel

Shanecus

Well that was an interesting read to run into after work

Damn that was toxic, I'm just going to scrub Rosibert

Misio

Damn that was toxic, I'm just going to scrub Rosibert

Yea unfortunately with the new work schedule I only get phone access on my break and then of course once I’m off. Usually I talk to the fiancé during the break tho, but if I have an @ I’ll always hop over. Just a bummer that people decide to go that way and get people to leave.

Even worse when you condiser that they don't contribute anything themselves to this community.

2:40 PM

I was spending time with my girlfriend yesterday, otherwise I'd have seen that conversation and stopped it short.

I've tried messaging mlb to check she's ok but she hasnt accepted the friend request and honestly I dont blame her

Yeah that was all in all totally uncalled for

Felimancer

It was worth trying at least, and that guy kinda came out of nowhere - there wasnt much more we could have done at the end of the day

Hello everyone! ^^

8:25 PM

Anyone here uses Spectralizer? I'm trying to find a way to "move" the bars to another place on the screen, but can't find a solution.

AxieIRIS

Anyone here uses Spectralizer? I'm trying to find a way to "move" the bars to another place on the screen, but can't find a solution.

I've used it before, but I'd move the bars by just dragging and resizing them

Thercio

I've used it before, but I'd move the bars by just dragging and resizing them

I tought I would be able to do it, but don't know what's happening. They're just fix at the top left corner.

Maybe it's inside a locked folder/scene?

8:59 PM

I had it as part of my webcam overlay, so in my case it was in a fixed position

9:00 PM

So I could drag the entire piece without having to worry about anything going out of their positions

I've never used it. Do each of the bars have a unique process ID?

Nope, you just select the source from the audio, pick the colors, choose how many bars you want, then you can position it wherever you like.

I'll look at the code in a little bit.

I'm able to drag now. It was my mistake the reason I couldn't drag.

11:26 PM

Thank you ❤️

Hey guys, not sure where to ask this but I want to stream and downloaded Twitch studio, but when I do stream it's extremely choppy even with changing the quality and bitrate of it. I don't see as to why I am having issues, as my specs are gpu: rtx 2060, cpu: ryzen 7 2700x and 16gb of RAM. Internet speeds are download: 950Mbps and upload: 200Mbps. Any help?

Welcome back

So, about your original message, you definitely should not care about whatever your viewers have to say about your body. More than half of the content of each channel is the streamer (character, personality, opinions, topics you like to discuss and how you approach them). It's about you interacting with your viewers in your own way, and they appreciating what you do, forming the connection that will make them accompany you in your journey. This is the fundamental part of developing your own brand as a streamer. They may find the same game, gear, entertainment, cool overlays everywhere else on Twitch, except for you. But if they don't like you, the streamer who's creating the content for your own channel, they always have the opportunity to be reasonable, say hello (or not) and look for content that better fits their tastes. Or they can choose to be assholes and try to harass you. Which you should respond with a ban, and move on with your life.

4:15 PM

Your body is your own to care and to make your own choices on what to do with it. Unless they are paying all your bills, they have no say in your life.

1

4:16 PM

Only thing I would say about your body is don't do crack lol

4:17 PM

And avoid bungie jumping without the safety rope

4:18 PM

Always wear seat belts

4:18 PM

You know, this and that

Thercio

Only thing I would say about your body is don't do crack lol

It's so moreish though

2

Honestly I was a cam model in a former life streaming is not new to me game streaming and starting from scratch is I don’t even think about it anymore when someone comments on my body or style it’s just how it is that’s why I’m the convo with him I said I’ve profited from my looks before and it’s not for me anymore I really enjoy game streaming because I’m the most relaxed when talking to other people and yeah I’ve heard crack is moreish hahaha

1

No questions or judgment from me. Money is money, and the bills aren't paying themselves based on what job do you have to do.

Some of the biggest vtubers used to be cam girls, making the switch is perfectly viable

and no one deserves to be purely sexualised, maybe thats just my ace viewpoint but I wasn't considered attractive until puberty stuck two lumps on my chest and that was awful, we're more than whats on the outside ❤️

2

Honestly I just wasn’t condoning him sexualising women for the sake of it if he’d said what he said in person it would have been deemed sexual harassment and I’d hate for someone not as strong willed as me to be broken because of people like him

4:34 PM

Anyway peeps on a much lighter note how has your day been?

I've cleaned the oven, thats productive right? XD you been up to much?

Cleaning the oven calls for a celebration in my house

I bought the new farcry so just getting my bearings and grabbing a takeaway with the hubby in a little bit x

Ahaha I'm cheating with this spray on cleaner stuff that just needs to sit for an hour then I scrub XD Hope the new farcry is good, I enjoyed watching someone play the last one :3

Honestly guapo the croc gives me life x

If you’re uk oven pride is the best to use @Felimancer

I'm in Sweden unfortunately and have to trust my housemate because I can't read the instructions XD I learned that oven is Ung though so thats something

Hello! Does anyone have an idea of how I could add a CRT-Screen effect to one of my video sources?

2:14 PM

Something like this: https://www.pling.com/p/1265542/

CRT Screen emulator

Well actually its just an overlay border on top of your desktop. See 'CRT Screen' project.You can add a transparent border to your desktop, making it look either like- a crt screen (ie glass like...

You'd need some serious setup to do that

4:31 PM

You could run a source that renders from After Effects in realtime

4:32 PM

I'm considering that myself, but the logistics are kind of nuts. I might have to incorporate a separate render machine for AE-driven scenes (which would make my rig a 3-PC setup)

4:34 PM

If you just want an overlay, the link you provided has the downloads. They could be edited to just be an overlay image that you can apply to any source that you want, but if you want it to be dynamic/animated, you'll need something like AE.

4:35 PM

@AxieIRIS My intro sequence is very CRT as well, and it was designed in AE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzuRuf1brGo

TenderSausage

Thanks! My next goal is to recreate it in a proper 3D space, like Blender or something.

Thank you very much for all of your answers. I'm very inexperienced, but trying my best. Do you mind if I show you what I'm thinking, and you could tell me "Okay you need the serious setup" or "Just use the overlay."?

Sure, go for it

So, I'm online at my testing channel. I guess I'm not allowed to send the link here, so I will post the link in "promotions" tab.

10:35 PM

I linked there. What I want is to have the CRT-Screen effect in that screen.

10:35 PM

When you open, you will see which screen I'm talking about.

How are you making this happen now?

10:39 PM

Or is this a video?

This is a game.

10:39 PM

Video source as game window.

10:39 PM

I'm using some 3D effects to give perspective and stuff.

I see

10:40 PM

So are you just looking for alternate layouts? It seems like you have everything implemented right now. Maybe you can help me understand what's missing?

10:41 PM

You mean a LUT to make it look CRT-esque?

I want the CRT effect on the screen, like the round corners, and bubble, you know?

10:41 PM

In the game source.

Try looking for a LUT

10:41 PM

It's a filter you can apply to that source

10:41 PM

Maybe there's a low-fi CRT LUT out there. I can look, too.

I will definitely have a look. Thank you very much!

10:43 PM

I will learn how to use it first. xD

https://obsproject.com/wiki/Filters-Guide#lut-filter

Wiki - Filters Guide | OBS

In OBS Studio we have the ability to add filters to our Sources, Scenes and even our Audio Devices. The following filters are available in OBS Studio 23.0.0: * [Scene and Source …

10:45 PM

It's very simple. There are a number of LUT packs for free. Just pick a file, hit apply, and see if you like it. Then you can turn it on and off as you see fit.

But this won't give me the round corners, will it?

You can add a vignette? (edited)

I guess I'm not familiar with the translation of vignette.

You may need to create an alpha mask to put over the top of the source, and you could use another mask to create the rounded edges and add a slight vignette to it to give it the retro look.

Got it.

10:52 PM

I'm having trouble with the rounded corner + bubble effect.

10:52 PM

Because the screen need to... retract?

I might have to play with it myself....

Do any of you use stream labs if so is it worth paying for prime I feel like my stream is boring but I’m not the most techy and have no idea where to start

The bots to add things are normally free I think? I've seen all sorts from an emote wall that makes emotes people post in chat float across your screen, to a bot that makes pokemon appear in your chat that people can catch There's plenty of free ways to spice up your stream from what I've seen

Yeah I’m gonna spend tomorrow morning having a play about with it I have no idea what I’m doing though

9:34 PM

On another note has anyone else played vanguard what do you think ?

Prime has some really cool tools, but it also depends on the amount of time utilizing them and the reach. like waiting until X viewers to add Y things too the stream could help you snowball more. Taking the time to focus on content before adding the helpful flare. I add prime and its tools on big months like March

Heres a question for everyone. How many actual go to promotions and click on someones stream? React to this if you do it regularly. Genuinely curious

i have tried streaming before but when i try to stream the game i am currently playing lags or has lag spikes is this to do with my internet not being able to keep up or something else i get about 25 mbs when im not streaming?

@willyg We can troubleshoot over in #🔧│tech-support-archive

@AxieIRIS I looked into the CRT project you sent over and it is something that would have to be re-written in a way that it could be leveraged in OBS, probably in Lua or something. This specific one is written for Godot. The alternative would be to write an app in Godot that would take control of an input device, apply the effect, and then pass it on as a virtual input to OBS. Those are two ways I can think of making that happen.

8:12 PM

You can play around with the Godot engine for free online, if that's a route you want to go: https://editor.godotengine.org/releases/latest/

Free and open source 2D and 3D game engine

Use the Godot Engine editor directly in your web browser, without having to install anything.

Thank you so much for your answer. I will take a loot at it, but I guess I will need to hire a freelancer web developer to try it, because I don't have the knowledge to make it work.

I'm actually looking at the current OBS Shader plugin to see if it can be ported.

10:27 PM

It might be an easy thing, might not. I'll let you know maybe tomorrow.

No need to have a friggin screen if you're not gonna use it really.

And it allows you to have things like... Features that you'd only get with multiple screens.

Zoom for example lets you pin two speakers on two separate screens, but you have to have 2 or 3 screens total.

There are a lot of people that use them as a virtual desktop for VR, apparently. I'd not considered doing that before.

I don't know nothing about VR. Haven't delved in there yet.

8:52 PM

I was really good at my job, it's a shame they laid the whole team off.

What'd you do?

I be flicking through OBS scenes like a bro!

8:53 PM

Uh, just managing virtual rooms and streaming.

8:53 PM

For doctors and the like. They'd be presenting and I'd have to manage tech issues while also streaming to a live audience.

Oh, I see. I have some friends that do virtual event management.

But yeah, I was really quick and pragmatic, you know. Very practical.

8:54 PM

Quick and effortless! Like this whole virtual setting is really comfortable for me.

8:54 PM

Virtual event management, yeah! I was a webinar technician.

Nice!

I could probably get some freelance work but it'd be really minute.

8:54 PM

And I'd be part of a bigger team, getting paid by the hour.

I feel a bit stupid after reading that, I'm quite involved in software in general and I have to be honest I totally assumed that Streamlabs OBS was the commercial version of OBS in an attempt to monitise/support the open source project.

You could take a HDMI out from your Xbox and USB it in as a camera into your computer using one of those.

2:26 PM

But I bet there's cheaper ways to do it. This would be hi-fi, though. For sure.

I feel a bit stupid after reading that, I'm quite involved in software in general and I have to be honest I totally assumed that Streamlabs OBS was the commercial version of OBS in an attempt to monitise/support the open source project.

Yeah, SLOBS is not an org I’ll be supporting. I support OBS. SLOBS has made many attempts to steal work and make money off of it.

3:05 PM

I hope Pokimane and Hasan leave them hanging. They’re ruining the ecosystem.

SLOBS has so many good plug ins and features, but at the cost of them being scummy. It’s kind of a “I like the product but hate the owner” thing. Like Harry Potter.

It’s more than that, though. Every optimization and new core feature are given to SLOBS to profit off of by people working for free on OBS. Plug-ins that we’re written, for free, re-written and obfuscated into SLOBS with no credit to the original author or anything. Literally stealing an entire website from a competition to make sure your branding is competitive? It’s more than scummy. It’s exploitation. It should be illegal.

3:56 PM

Streamlabs doesn’t deserve the money. They didn’t make anything new, just assembled it inside a fancy shell.

3:57 PM

But this kind of thing has been happening for decades. Red Hat vs. Linux, etc.

3:57 PM

At least Red Hat innovated a bit on their own.

On a side note... My review of throwing up: 0/10, would not recommend.

Shanecus

SLOBS has so many good plug ins and features, but at the cost of them being scummy. It’s kind of a “I like the product but hate the owner” thing. Like Harry Potter.

What "plugins" do they offer that you couldn't solve with a bit of research, or even the free plugins on the OBS forums?

I don’t doubt they are available elsewhere but the ease of them being right there I mean. Like want a linktree, it’s on the dashboard, it makes you a website, it’s a merch store, it has auto reminders for hydrates and fun stuff, built in timers and alerts and all that. It’s easy. Just a plus sign and boop it’s there. OBS is better, but it requires more work. Even if that work is just looking it up in a forum or a tutorial, it is still more than a little drop down add to menu. I use OBS for YouTube stuff tho. Then again my point is moot since I haven’t even streamed in a month

10:22 PM

Oh and the auto sponsors is cool, I got 400 bucks from raid shadow legends from using SLOBS

TenderSausage

Streamlabs doesn’t deserve the money. They didn’t make anything new, just assembled it inside a fancy shell.

The fancy shell bit tho is what gets people 98% of the time.

The ease is their steeze

10:27 PM

Especially with notifications

morning all how we all doing

anyone wanna follow eachother on twitch

4:14 PM

?

@mommysbathwater No, not really. Follow-for-follow isn't my cup of tea.

It doesnt really help you in the long run either, I see people with thousands of follows but only a few viewers per stream and it does impact a person's initial opinion of your channel

mommysbathwater

anyone wanna follow eachother on twitch

How are you gonna measure your actual growth if you get follows of people who are just helping you get to a higher number? How accurate would your results be, comparing the number of viewers you have to the number of new followers you get on a certain time-frame, if some of them aren't actually watching the content that you create?

6:50 PM

How would you be able to improve if you turn one of the numbers that represent your success of your work as someone that creates digital entertainment into 'just a big number'?

6:54 PM

I'd say anyone would be better of trying to raise their numbers on their own on Twitch (even though it has all these fucked up barriers to newcomers) and improving their skills, and subsequently quality of their content, to a point where the audience you are aiming for will connect with what you do. You are free to take the easy way, but I don't know of a single good streamer that has succeeded this way.

Anyone have Friendsgiving plans?

Morning

TenderSausage

Anyone have Friendsgiving plans?

Nah still don’t really know anyone in this city xD

Aw man. Is that Vegas, or did you move again?

Yea in Vegas

6:12 PM

But who knows, maybe NEXT year people will be less stand-off ish from social distancing xD

Its certainly been hard for those of us who happened to move just before the pandemic, fingers crossed you can meet people soon ❤️ (I'm just glad the internet exists)

We've had to postpose/cancel Friendsgiving as a gathering the last two years, I definitely miss having that event

6:16 PM

Used to brine up two whole turkeys and host 20+ people. God, I miss that.

6:16 PM

I'm optimistic that we'll be able to host it safely next year

Yea I’m sure things will be normal in time lol January 2020 was for sure an awkward time to move tho yea xD

It's definitely not the same but could always share some favorite recipes with long distance friends or try some new ones at the same time to do a "virtual" friendsgiving

8:53 PM

Hopefully it will be easier to meet people in 2022

morning all how we all doing

Heyo

yo yo yooooooo

Yo, what it do?

slow life

There’s literally a chat specifically for promoting your stream

bruh

yo how’s life for y’all

Tired

Hey, does anyone here do mobile streaming? (ie: IRL, travel, etc.)

@TVUBrenin Not yet, but I'm really looking into getting a few Logitech Mevo cameras

Elgato stream decks half off!! Idk if I can post this here but

Yes that's fine, unless you're an Elgato mole

Damn, I wish I could get it.

Whoever recommended obs instead of Streamlabs, thank you

7:41 PM

(Wasn't me, but I'll take the credit, thank you)

2

Are there any level up Facebook streamers here?

justaberner

Whoever recommended obs instead of Streamlabs, thank you

Really? I find there software clunky and there discord extremely non helpful. But they work for free, Streamlabs has a paid staff and doesn’t rely on bots. I asked a question in OBS one time and they said “We don’t 1v1 support or private support”

Streamlabs literally takes the open-source code from OBS Studio, strips plugin functionality out of it and adds their "apps" with a pricetag. Plus ripping off ideas from their competitors... And even their website (as what happened with Lightstream, which started the whole bashing against them).

11:55 PM

Using someone else's branding and trademarking it makes it obviously clear that this isn't a company that should be supported by anyone, much less in the streaming community. https://twitter.com/OBSProject/status/1460782968633499651 (edited)

OBS (@OBSProject)

Near the launch of SLOBS, @streamlabs reached out to us about using the OBS name. We kindly asked them not to. They did so anyway and followed up by filing a trademark We’ve tried to sort this out in private and they have been uncooperative at every turn https://t.co/r1eXr3VxcJ

Though is there any other tipping program one could use?

found Se.pay from streamelements, yall knew trovo live exists? cos i didnt till i saw it on elements

I've been thinking of adding a Binance button on my channel's description for donations.

11:00 AM

Or even creating a custom page with my crypto wallet address.

11:02 AM

But there's still a lot to consider, crypto isn't easy to adopt just for a donation for a beginner.

i pass on crypto im not even considering so ill stick with Elements

Morning all how we all today I took Mrs Ginger and kids out to get some new Christmas decorations this morning to finish off with a cafe breakfast loved every bit of it

Morning all how we all doing

Tired

Just got done draining a hot tub. All was well until the last thing needed to go to the garage and of course I hurt my back. Other than that, its a great Sunday

@Jahlon You gonna refill that hot tub so you can take care of that back?

Yeah that's the plan. Takes 20 mins to empty 400 gallons, but it takes like 1.5 hours to fill and 6 hours to heat

Damn. Turn on the afterburners!

4:44 PM

My McGuyver ass would be figuring out how to recirculate the hot water heater in there somehow.

When I move I want to get a heated pool.

Does anyone know if I was doing. A sports podcast and had the standings on either side on the screen would I get nailed for copyright?

8:52 PM

For example how I have the standings on the side of the camera here

If you generate the widgets your self then no you are good to go.

I used the windows snipping too

8:56 PM

Snipped it from website to use. So instead if I were to make my own graphic and input logos I would be fine.

8:56 PM

Right now ESPN could nail me?

Yes

8:57 PM

Because you are using their assets

8:57 PM

Now if this is something you really wanted to do, you could make your own tool that pulls data from a spreadsheet and then you have your own assets

I like you're thinking

8:58 PM

I guess I have some reading to do about scraping websites

Finally cleaned up my desk enough to take pics of my streaming setup

Morning all how we all doing

Does anyone have any contacts at instagram? I've got an issue with account security and the normal avenues aren't responding.

Reminder that promos go in the #old🔴streams channel. Thanks!

What do we think about the Ludwig news? Youtube making big moves these days

Morning all how we all doing

Good how are you doing man up a little early huh @Ginge__05

@PearseM55 I think it makes room on Twitch. Good luck to him.

Hey all anyone doing some fun series over December I'm playing ark single player run-through what are you guys doing

I’m gonna try and finish my play through of Pokémon shining Pearl

@Marmaduck sick how is it so far man do you like im holding out for Legends in January

It’s pretty fun, though that’s from a true Pokémon fan who doesn’t care what changes they do (...sometimes)

I'm one of those fans as well

Hola everyone. I could really use some help streaming from a Chromebook.

I have a few limitations that I'd like advice from someone who knows

@DannyMiii A web-based streaming option is probably best since Chrome OS can leverage the web APIs. (edited)

I use restream, to great success, and am waiting on a soundboard and capture card. Really excited about doing this more professionally (edited)

TenderSausage

@PearseM55 I think it makes room on Twitch. Good luck to him.

Who moves in to take that spot? I think most of his viewers will just divide up between the likes of Mizkif and Hasan. I dont know who breaks into that spot. The person with the biggest potential is Atrioc maybe, Im surprised he doesnt have more viewers already

Everyone things going to YouTube is the next "big move" the thing is Twitch doesn't need to respond yet. Twitch has never not been in first place for streaming platforms. Being in first place for a long time makes you fat and lazy. You want competition because it makes you strive to be different and better

But if you get fat and lazy its very hard to get started when that competition catches up! Classic tale of the Tortoise and the Hare

1

Most advice videos I've watched have said you're better off 'diversifying your portfolio' - do something on all the platforms and you're much safer than trusting one platform (especially those that have shown they dont care about their creators)

Morning all hownwe allndoing

Pretty well. Happy December. Still trying to get my stuff together here

Can we promote our stream here?

There's a #old🔴streams tab ❤️

just remember that no ones gona click the link if they dont knowanything about you- show you are active

Do not try to promo anything in here. This isn't even remotely related to streaming.

Best program to take clips of gaming other than OBS?

hey everyone!

6:23 PM

6:24 PM

Good morning!!

7:46 PM

How are y’all?

More or less okay. Getting over a bout of bronchitis which sucks.

Anyone try the new Warhammer game on gamepass it's awesome

Morning all how we all doing

Just curious and taking a unofficial survery, what hand do you use your stream deck/audio mixer with??

Right, same as my mouse.

morning all how we all doing

Yooooo morning everyone!

2:13 PM

@Ginge__05 good! Yourself?

2:15 PM

TenderSausage

Right, same as my mouse.

Thanks, ive been using my left and it stops my WASD movement in games. Appreciate the feedback, probably gonna switch

What kinda shortcuts does everyone run on their streamdecks? I have scenes and basic stuff set up but would love to try and experiment more

morning how we all doing hope you all have your christmas jumper on today

PearseM55

What kinda shortcuts does everyone run on their streamdecks? I have scenes and basic stuff set up but would love to try and experiment more

I have a page for system stats coming from HW Monitor to see live performance graphs, and a few other functional shortcuts, like having windows open and move to the correct positions on my screens.

I’m looking for a really good movie streaming app like Playhub. Is there anyone who can suggest or maybe send me a invite please?!

Wrong kind of streaming, sorry.

Stay hydrated, everyone

So this V8 soundboard is not what I thought it would be. Was hoping for a place I can press buttons and play programmable sounds during a stream for intended effects (audio and perhaps visual). What is this thing good for?

I just used the stream deck for that

12:57 AM

It has a good free addon called Soundboard, lets me add whatever in

12:57 AM

for visual things, it works too

That sounds like what I'm looking for - where could I find it?

It's by elgato

12:58 AM

it's probably the premiere piece of streamings equipment, its available most places you can buy games

I've seen elgato debates over reddit

https://www.elgato.com/en/stream-deck

Stream Deck | elgato.com

With Stream Deck, take full control of your content and focus on what matters most: your audience.

I'm intending to go pro, but am trying to start in my budget of next to nothing right now

basically 15 little screens that you can customize with infinite pages and folders

12:59 AM

yea, it was one of the first things i got

12:59 AM

definitely gives you more of a producer feel

I wonder if there's a phone app I can use (I have a backup phone that connect to wifi, so I use it for all sorts of stuff)

There's a free one for the phone by elgato

1:00 AM

ive never used it though

1:00 AM

https://www.elgato.com/en/stream-deck-mobile

Stream Deck Mobile | elgato.com

With Stream Deck, take full control of your content and focus on what matters most: your audience.

looking it up right now! So what does the V8 Pro Sound Card even do?

I don't know, from a glance it looks like it would add standard effects

1:01 AM

Might be a good replacement for voice mod, if you're ever trying to modify your sound output

1:01 AM

but i never saw a use for voice mod personally

That sounds quite useful, actually!

yea, like to sound like you're over an intercom or a girl

1:02 AM

or to add bass

1:02 AM

im sure it does most of the basic, highly requested things

I go into a few characters, so it might help differentiate.

Absolutely.

1:03 AM

But Soundboard on the elgato app should be very good for adding in air horns or whatever

1:03 AM

it also has integration with obs

Streamdeck Labs - what are the main differences between that app and the elgato app? (I'm getting my other phone so I can dl stuff)

I dont use any of the Labs products, not well coded and always grubbing for money

1:04 AM

I would avoid using anything that adds subscription fees for perks that used to be free

1:05 AM

Id probably stick with the elgato version

Makes sense. I cannot tell you how difficult it has been the past couple of weeks to even get to this point. This helps a lot. Thank you!

It's a process, but learning your gear gives confidence

1:06 AM

Took me about 1.5 years to build my ideal studio, every purchase fulfilled a need and now i cant think of a thing to get

The biggest issue was hoping to use my chrome book, because it’s more reliable and powerful than my older laptop, but that turned out to be a dead end.

1:06 AM

So OBS on older PC it is, for now

hey, you're getting there, and remember that tv behind the second monitor could be used as an extra screen!

1:07 AM

Probably just needs an hdmi cable

I’m like Ariel in that regard. I’ve got plenty.

1:08 AM

I’m starting an announcer for higher gig, where I do commentary over other peoples live content.

1:08 AM

So like, commentating a Super Bowl or fantasy draft in Madden, Online debates, speed runs, things of that nature.

That sounds good, but make sure to follow the rules of fair use

1:09 AM

Make the content transformative, otherwise people get weird about copyright claims

1:09 AM

sounds like thats what you're doing though

I have that on my list of research. I have a whole list of questions to make sure both myself and the client or comfortable and satisfied.

1:10 AM

At the end of the day, it’s their product, and I’m just adding my service to it.

1:10 AM

But I am very much game to review any resources you might think can help!

well if theyre hiring you thats no issue

1:10 AM

but most reactions are unsolicited, which is okay if you follow the rules of fair use

Gotcha.

Wonder if #royalty-free-assets got looping BGs cause I am TIRED of this damn basic background

Like, your wallpaper?

1:20 AM

You could always do like what YuB does and let your Reddit community pick your background for the week.

1:20 AM

Swap out Discord for Reddit or whatever

I do NOT have any following lmao

1:24 AM

see ik twitch bad for growth but 4k1k killed my YT channel

1:25 AM

I was literally average viewers away from affiliate.... but I lost motivation cause I didn't even average 1 viewer

You hopping back on the horse?

Of?

1:37 AM

Streaming yee

1

Hello everyone

yo

Hello

But yeah. Might remake my Limeberry fade background.

9:43 PM

Or might do that shorter background so you appear over the background lol

I'm gonna get my s*** together this week. I have too much equipment to not be streaming.
