Also an error message appears sometimes that says "Video Capture Device Not Selected Please select video capture device connected to your system." However, there are no options in message box and I have to click around to find the hidden okay button to make it go away. What am I doing wrong? Also I tried skipping to the "Configure Camtasia" portion of the tutorial and under Tools-->Options there is no tab a called Capture and I wasn't able to find or select any of the options I'm supposed to configure. I apologize if this makes no sense. This is my first time using this software. Not to be sexist but I think I sound like a stereotypical female talking to a mechanic about her broken car and all the weird noises it's making 
Did you also install Live Output Support when you were installing Camtasia? You can select Camtasia in FMLE right?

Until now I streamed with Camtasia but I am not satissfied with the quality.I tried to stream with Xsplit and window mode but it lags very hard (in windows mode) even when not streaming.I heard that it is something that u can do to not lag on windows mode.Tx
What is your upload rate and what are your current settings in FMLE? Video bitrate, codec used, resoultion and fps is enough.
You can get it to look good using FMLE if you set it right.

My stream randomly turns off sometimes.
A viewer says "It doesn't even load"; as far as I can tell, my FMLE and camtasia are working fine, and I think the online/offline is working on TL too. Just at twitch.tv it just turns off.
I just started using minilauncher to play on fish. Anyone else have similar problem?
On top right off the stream it says OFFLINE but I can see viewers. Also the viewer can hear music.
?_?
Sometimes twitch has problems, I'll check it out next time you stream. See if your vods also have this problem or not.

Hello, would it be possible to stream BW with such a comp? AMD Turion X2 Dual Core, ATI radeon 3100, 2 gb ram
Just try. You can download a demo version of camtasia and xsplit and fmle are free.

Tried it again. Stream turned off sometime in the middle, TL indicates it's online, but twitch says offline.
Actually it seems to be a problem on my end; this is repeated in FMLE

This happens just as I tab into bw and during it. Going to reinstall all bw stuff.
Actually not just during bw. Going to reinstall everything.
EDIT: reinstalled and it fixed. Not going to use minilauncher though, because it started when used mini to get on fish.

My specs:
CPU: Intel CORE i5 760 2.8 GHz, 2x4 DDR3, ATI Radeon HD 5570
OS(i.e. Which version of Windows you have): Windows 7
Your justin.tv/twitch.tv page: www.justin.tv/Zepish
Upload speed: About 2 Mbps
I'm trying to set up a stream using the fullscreen method (FMLE + Camtasia).
This guide is amazing, and I can stream my desktop just fine. However, whenever I open broodwar, my stream completely crashes. Not only does my stream turn black, but it stays black after I close the game (FMLE is still showing my screen), forcing me to restart my stream on justin.tv to make it work again.. At this point I really don't know what to try (I tried pausing/unpausing camtasia, running bw without the iCCup launcher, even reinstalling bw and none of it worked).
Are bw streamers still using camtasia? Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
Any help is appreciated, I hope to start streaming very soon!
Edit: It's Working now. Thanks fold for answering my pm so fast :D

You are still streaming, yes? Did you remember to stop and start recording at the start of every game?

Hi. Just got it working but probably wont stream due too fps issues (if anyone wanna help please pm :D)
If anyone cant find the setting up camtasia part i at last found out what to do:
When you go too make new recording (or something) on the view tab in the new pop up you must select main toolbar.
From there a little sheet icon with arrows appear and if you click it and then press the capture text you will get the window the handsome, intelligent and happymaking OP was reffering to

"How you fill the next entries depends on your upload speed. A good estimate on how much bandwidth to use for video and audio bit rates is to first take 60% of your upload speed. Put 85% of that into Bit Rate under Video and the remaining 15% into Bit Rate under Audio."
How do I know my bitrate?
I currently have; Bitrate -> 200 kbs // Output Size -> 640*480
Also my audio is working but video is not.
edit: everything works but what do I do to reduce quality so I lag less on fish? or will I lag on fish regardless with stream.

Windows 7 64bits Ultimate
Stream did not work with FMLE 3.1 initially but started to work with 2.5 (and camt 5).
Still need help with color issues, f9 doesn't work when in game despite setting hotkeys correctly.
It only works outside of the game, help would be appreciated

Guys, is there a way to reduce the blurriness of this:
http://www.twitch.tv/kola_veri/b/310303001
It looks uber pixelated when I begin to move around with hotkeys..or is this the max I can get with 200 bitrate..my upload speed is 400, so going above 256 will probably cause me to lag. I'm using fmle 2.5 with h.264 at 3.1 baseline

that's just how 200 will look.

Awww....oh well, come to think of it, it reminds of the free gom player stream when they have a big match :p
Increasing the frame rate to 30 seems to have helped a bit, but that also increases the bandwidth. For some reason I cannot register a beta version of xsplit, so havent really tried that out. Guess I'll probably experiment with that later...

yeah 200 kinda sucks when you are in fullscreen and the you are screen flipping in game. other than that, if you watch it in window mode it dont look too bad.

How do I solve this looping of recorded stream?
My stream auto loop itself within a stream. So a Stream within a stream. It does that by itself.
And there's this random annoying wind noise.
Help please.
http://www.twitch.tv/reclusive0/b/310437480
Starts at around 0.37
Thanks for the help
Apparently that's normal because I watch my own stream so yeah it's solve.

Ok, I've been testing this out and I'm a little bit of a loss with the bad audio quality for the music. It sounds like it just coming through the external mic whereas I assumed stereo would feed the music directly through.
Not sure which stats I should put up.
Windows 7
CPU Intel i5-2500K @3.30GHz
Using Camtesia 5 and FMLE 2.5 because windowed mode lags too much.
I enabled the Stereo Mix and made it my default.
My logitech webcam mic pick up my typing and talking just fine, but the music sounds digitally distorted like it's playing through skype.
Edit.
Actually it's stranger than I thought. Testing the viewing on my laptop, I hear the mic audio, but no music. Testing with my brother's laptop, he hear's the music perfectly clear but no mic at all.

Okay so...does anyone know if it is possible to have both my in-game sounds/music as well as me talking on the stream? Currently the only way I can manage this is if I set it to integrated microphone and turn the volume up load on my computer so the mic pics up the game/music.
If I go to stereo mix I get only my game sounds and none of my own talking.

Use Virtual Audio Cable. Don't know if they have a free version, but you can put both your mic and stereo mix onto one sound input which you can select in FMLE.

Working on that now.
I've got it to the point where I am trying to run VAC.bat but am getting a "windows cannot find '\Virtual Audio Cable\audiorepeater.exe' error. "

That is because the location of audiorepeater.exe might be different on your computer so you can help it out by finding out where it is and replacing the location that is in the batch file.
Edit: If you don't mind, PM me if you have any further questions and I'll help you there.

Ok, I think I've got it all worked out with sound and all. However, the stream is quite pixillated when I hop around a lot. I'm wondering if I can get away with a higher quality without running into lag or latency.
My upload speed is .78 Mbps (although once it was .68 or something) ping 35
I currently have video bit rate at 200 Kbps and Audio at 128kbps
I think that's the one part the guide I was confused because it said 85% 15%, but the options for Audio only go as low as 96kpbs- 112kbps being the next step up.

Change the sample rate to 22050 and you can set the bitrate lower. It'll be pixellated because the video bitrate is low. You need around 500 for it to not look pixelated. Using H.264 instead of VP6 under video format might also help if your computer can handle it.
