The Easiest Way to Multistream on OBS (100% Free)

About this video

This tutorial shows how to multistream from OBS for free using a multistream plugin downloaded from the vendor site named in the transcript (products > Multistream), with a paid Stream Suite option mentioned for multiple or vertical canvases. OBS must be closed while installing or, the presenter says, the plugin will not install properly. After installing, the plugin appears as a dock in OBS. The presenter recommends making Twitch the built-in stream in OBS Settings > Stream — connecting the account there — because Twitch-specific features such as the VOD track and enhanced broadcasting only work in that built-in slot. Additional outputs are then added from the plugin dock’s settings for the main canvas: choose a platform (other services such as LinkedIn are mentioned), or for YouTube, copy the stream key from the YouTube creator dashboard, paste it in, and create the output. Toggling the stream button starts that output, but the built-in stream must be started first before any additional output can stream. The presenter cautions that multistreaming uses more computer and network resources, advises testing settings, and notes each platform’s encoder can be customized individually under its advanced settings.

Key takeaways

• Close OBS before running the plugin installer, or it will not install properly.
• Use Twitch as the built-in OBS stream if you stream there, because VOD track and enhanced broadcasting features only work in that slot.
• Add extra platforms as outputs on the main canvas; for YouTube you paste in the stream key from the YouTube creator dashboard.
• The built-in stream must be started first — additional outputs cannot stream before it.
• Multistreaming consumes extra computer and network resources, so test first; each platform’s encoder can be tuned separately in advanced settings.
