Oh wow, i can't wait to try this out for my stream. My live stream has been down because xsplit is too much for my computer and glad something less cpu intensive is available! ^.^

This is such a great piece of software. I had it up and running in like 5mins which is great, took me quite a bit longer to set up xsplit and it's FREE!!!

I know it has been posted already but check out the thread by GTR about streaming with OBS really well written guide.

Yep I have been using this program for a few weeks now. It's simply amazing. Allows me to stream 720/60 or 1080/30 from a laptop. Simply amazing

how do you change between 480p and 720p and such, is it just the resolution and framerate? This program is so much better and less cpu intensive then xsplit/dxtory.

i got 2mb upload, whats the best i can do?
savior did nothing wrong

You should check out GTR's thread on this. Generally it's just about resolution and at 2Mbit upload you can stream any quality up to about 1500kbit with low variance, 1200kbit with high variance while leaving some bandwidth for the rest of the system (and the games). How much your CPU can handle depends, really. Typically an i5 can handle 1280*720@30fps.

It isn't working for me. I get this error.


Could not create d3d10 device and swap chain. If you get this error, it's likely you probably use a GPU that is old, or that is unsupported.

My GPU is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650.

In my uneducated opinion and experience, OBS outweighed Xsplit in pretty much any aspect I could notice, with about the same amount of effort setting things up.

How does the low latency mode actually works? How do I use it? What is the latency tuning factor?
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

One thing I liked about Xsplit is that I could set it to capture BW and it would capture it perfect when I switched between normal windowed mode and 2x windowed mode. But when I try to do that in OBS it just captures the top left corner instead of actively resizing the capture area like Xsplit does. Is it possible to get OBS to do this?

It tries to smooth the stream into a constant rate to eliminate big spikes which cause queuing / latency. You shouldn't change the advanced options unless you're trying to fix a problem.

It's also written entirely in C/C++ and Direct3D 11 to maximize performance. It does not support windows XP, as windows XP unfortunately does not support direct3d 11

That is a big limitation. Maybe a developer who knows DX9 or OpenGL can fix this problem. I only know DX7 APIs (except D3D7) from back in the day so I cannot help. Pre-DX8 game like Starcraft and Diablo 2 look best on Windows 95-XP because Microsoft remove hardware acceleration for GDI and DirectDraw since Windows Vista.

It's not really that big of a limitation, Vista or higher is an increasingly common requirement. XP is pretty much dead, and anyone still using XP probably doesn't have the necessary hardware to stream in the first place.

What kind of hardware would you deem as minimum for streaming 720p@30fps? My desktop is rather dated today, so I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough even with OBS that's not as heavy as xsplit.
