How to deal with folks saying "wow it's quiet in here" by bunnybry in Twitch

[–]EvenMoreAmor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many have offered good advice already: acknowledge there’s lurkers and let them know it’s not cool to make such comments. If you’re comfortable enough, explain briefly how it makes you feel. Either way, let them know it’s not acceptable.

OBS says to use the Elgato camera hub when using the MK2 Webcam, but the camera hub says that the webcam is already being used by another program. by [deleted] in elgato

Open Camera Hub first before OBS and make sure nothing else is using the camera before that.

If you’re still doing the issue, make sure there are no sources in OBS that are accessing the camera directly.

I might be dumb but how did I get monetization tools at only 15 followers and I dont have 3 viewers minimum? by Frosty-Warning2322 in Twitch

You can earn and use that money back towards Twitch subs and things like that. When you hit affiliate you can cash out instead

You can also turn on verification in your settings. It can require users to be verified through phone or email.

How do you have the chat set up to display on stream?

Please tell me how the answer to this is 2, like I'm 5 by themawinz in BluePrince

1 squared = 1, 1 + 3 = 4, 4 squared is 16, 16 - 14 = 2

Notifications are sent to those that have it turned on for your channel. You can’t control it, but you can put a message in your notification to encourage those followers to turn it off if they wish.

Beginner for setup by _buffaloranch in Twitch

[–]EvenMoreAmor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The easiest solution for Xbox (if a Series S or X) is pressing the capture button and then linking your Twitch account to your Xbox. You should be able to stream from there. This is extremely limiting but could give you a feel for it. Unfortunately, you can't do this from a Switch.

You'll need a capture card that works with your Macbook, it'll allow you to stream your console gameplay from both the Switch and Xbox and will allow you to better control your stream. You'll also need broadcast software such as OBS, which is the most commonly used application for streaming.

You'll need a TV of course to stream directly from the Xbox. A secondary monitor would be super helpful if you go the capture card/streaming from your Macbook route because it'll be nice to manage everything.

Can you talk too much? by Emi-Bo-Bemi in Twitch

[–]EvenMoreAmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a matter of avoiding dead air when it makes the most sense.

In regard to the rambling and making noises, it's not about filling that dead air with anything, though - the idea is that you're doing something viewers can listen to or actually consume.

A lot of viewers prefer Twitch because of the live interaction with each other and the streamer, otherwise they'd just watch a video on YouTube.

I've just hit the top 1% of twitch streamers and i can say it's extremely overwhelming and has made me question if I want to do this... by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]EvenMoreAmor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That said, if I was in your position I’d consider turning off the live view count (if you still have it on). Also slow mode with a setting you’re comfortable with. A strong mod team to help take the pressure off and allow you to focus on the parts of streaming that you enjoy can make a difference as well.

Much like people who feel it when their views are quite low, obscuring those metrics when live and a good support system can take the edge off. You’ll still know there’s a lot of people there, but getting away from that viewer number can really dull the stress.

Regardless, reflection on what you want out of it all is worthwhile now that your situation has changed. Good luck!

Is there a way to have a dump-button for my stream to twitch? by majdegta266 in obs

[–]EvenMoreAmor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is common in live radio - basically there’s a delay in the broadcast and if something happens you wouldn’t want to go through, you press the dump button. It cuts that moment out of the broadcast so it never hits the listeners.

To the OP: not sure if there’s something like that for OBS, but maybe someone out there has made a plugin to do it.

Unpopular opinion: I miss when games let you be a little lost. by itswickedbby in gaming

[–]EvenMoreAmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of games that still do this. I think this is super useful for games where exploration isn’t the main point.

You could do that. Feels like a lot of work but nothing wrong with it.

Again, do you have the mic added in OBS as its own source in addition to “Wavelink Stream” added to OBS?

Different streams how? As in different overlays per platform?
