Full Screen Windowed mode is required to stream games. I use FMLE 3.1 with no problems. I'm at work so I don't have exact details, but I use something like h264 capture 60fps, stream 30fps, 2 second keyframes, main profile, 5.1, 1920x1080/960x540

hey so i cant get my ingame sound done - i can only record the sound from my mic and once i put stereomix as audio in the adobe flash live media encoder i have no sound at all. I think my problem is that in my HD Realtek audio settings i dont have a playback volume - just recording volume. How can i fix that problem with ustream or is it not possible without paying for stuff?

is it better on any other livestream platform?

Thanks!

Great thread! Do you think a mod could change the title and add [Guide] in the beginning so it can be found easier?

There is no solution if you want two audio sources (game and mic). You have to have a stereo mixer or you have to pay for software that does it virtually. (Virtual Audio Cable)

but normally it should work if you have the stereo mix option right?

it's kinda stupid though. i might just start streaming without gamesound or something like that. meh.

So, I've been able to get a stream up and running fine and dandy, but once It's going my bitrate just plummets. I start out at the setting Ive chosen (500Kbps) but quickly drop to 30 or less Kbps. Anyone had similar experiences? I have comcast with 12 Mbps down and 2.5 Mbps up.

If you want to capture stereo mix of your mic + game, please use a headset/earphones. Then, goto your microphone properties and enable this option: http://i32.tinypic.com/newdi8.jpg

Your mic will now come through your speakers (headset). The reason you want to use a headset is because your mic will feedback on regular speakers, making for a terrible echo.

addendum: i see alot of newer posts since last i dropped in here. for the majority of you, please try livestream procaster before this ustream/justin.tv method. procaster is ridiculously easy to set up and use, and cpu-to-quality performance is quite good for most users. just play with the bitrate and resolution settings to find what's best for you.

Why can't i have skype on at the same time I'm streaming with 'what you hear'? I didn't expect myself to be heard, but i thought i could at least have skype online so i can hear someone else.

I had planned on having a guest commentator tonight for a local tournament who would solo-cast the whole thing. Any ideas on how i can get skype to not try to send my voice at all so it will let me hear someone else?

The error i'm getting is 'problem with recording device' or something along those lines.

Or do we need to use like ventrilo?

Thanks in advance!

Great guide! But i've have encountered some minor problems that I believe someone else has also run into (posted on like page 7 or 8). I seem to be getting background noise when stream but I don't think it's my mic because I don't get the noise over skype. Is there anyway at all to fix this?
Whatever floats your boat.

but this doesn't cope for not being able to enable the stereo mix option right?

I've got it to work. Open the XML and just copy the URL and the stream info and paste it into FMLE.

Now I have a problem when opening Starcraft. The stream shows just a black screen... any ideas?


This has been my problem since beta. My screen shots are always blacked out as well. Any ideas guys?

i had the opportunity to cast for a local tournament, and it was super fun. i used TotalBiscuit's settings, they worked wonders. one thing to remember is that the number of keyframes you set is important, 5-10 sec keyframes is too much. keyframes are the same thing as they are in flash/AE/cartoons. basically a keyframe is a high quality frame/image, the frames in between are 'tweened' to create motion and are a little less quality. if you can do 1 second keyframes, and maintain a high FPS output after encoding, then use it, your viewers will probably notice. i'd say 3 second keyframes are the most i would consider to deliver a 'lag free' stream.

anyways, i WAS having trouble with ustream/FMLE/vhscr cap, but i seem to have fixed them by using total biscuit's settings. there is no point in having vhsc capture at 30 or even 60 fps if you are going to stream at 20 fps...capture with vhsc at 20 FPS.

Q6600 @ 3.0 gHz/4 gb ddr2 1066/wd caviar black 6400AALS/1920x1080 native res
output to: 1280x720 @ 20 fps 1000 kbps upload

Co-commentary tutorial. Let me start by saying this solves 2 issues. First, when I use my mic from my computer that is streaming with stereo mix, my viewers cannot hear me at all. However, they can hear my co-commentators. This strategy solves this issue. Second, this strategy allows you to get MANY co-commentators on a single stream.

1. Set up stereo mix appropriately, adjust volume settings for the game
2. Download Skype, all commentators much join a conference call
3. Ensure that the conference call is audible through the streaming computer. DO NOT plug your MIC into the streaming computer, you must join the conference call from another computer or MIC. Your cocasters/commentators must do so as well.
4. set up casters in game, and GO!

also, working on a tutorial on how to get webcam view in the bottom/top right/left corner like PsyoniC has.

Hey guys.

I´m having some trouble with my streaming.
I´m using a laptop with the specs: Quad Core i7 1.6ghz (turbo boost to 2.8ghz) 6gb Ram, and ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5650.

It runs Starcraft 2 on High with no problem, even with FME on but i kick it to medium just in case.

Well, i can´t seem to get good quality rates or image. I´m using VH camera and FME, and even copy some user settings but for some reason it has some freezes. No flickering cause it´s in windowed mode, but it´l lag a bit like "unit move stream freeze, units move a bit more, stream freeze" etc.

Usually: VH 60 fps - FME H264 max input res, (30-60 fps) - 1280x1024 on output, 1000-2000 bitrate.

I am linking the xml of my stream too

Anyone know what´s wrong?
