#OBS MAC AND ISHOWU LICENSE#

The results are pretty good! And given that my Wirecast license is about to run out, I think I’m going to move to Streamlabs OBS permanently-and save a whole bunch of money.

#OBS MAC AND ISHOWU FREE#

I use Rogue Amoeba’s Loopback to create a custom audio input for use by OBS, but Streamlabs also suggests that you can use the free iShowU to do much the same thing. While it doesn’t offer some of the precision layout tools that Wirecast does-I’d like to be able to specify the exact size of objects on the canvas-it’s got some nice shortcuts that make it easy for me to create a new layout in a hurry.Īudio capture can be an issue. But it somehow seems better integrated with streaming services like Twitch and YouTube than Wirecast does. (It’s powered by the OBS engine, an open-source streaming system I’ve tried a couple of times and always felt way too rough for me to want to use.) Streamlabs OBS is open source, free, and I think I like it better than Wirecast.ĭoes Streamlabs OBS have rough edges? Sure it does. So a funny thing happened earlier this month: Streamlabs OBS, one of the leading video-streaming apps on Windows, arrived for the first time on the Mac. You can stream to services such as YouTube or Twitch, and record in a variety of different formats to either edit later or publish to video sharing websites.

#OBS MAC AND ISHOWU SOFTWARE#

OBS, or Open Broadcaster Software, is a free, open source software package that allows you to record or stream what's displayed on your computer screen, as well as other sources. I might not get my issue solved but at least we can help each other figure this stuff out.For a few years now I’ve been live streaming stuff on YouTube, mostly Dungeons and Dragons play sessions as a part of the Total Party Kill podcast. Or let me know if you have questions about using OBS, Audio Hijack, or any other streaming on a Mac issues. Hopefully someone can chime in in the comments below with some suggestions. If anyone at Wirecast wants to talk sponsorship ideas, I'm all ears! :) But it's $495USD (almost $700CAD) and this is a hobby for fun. Wirecast would likely work and probably take care of it all for me.Audio Hijack would also give me the benefit of being able to record my audio in case I wanted to do an audio podcast with whatever I'm streaming. Audio Hijack by Rogue Amoeba - is what I might try next if I can't figure out a way to get iShowU Audio Capture to play nicely with everything else.It didn't seem to help and for $75USD (currently over $100CAD), it seemed unlikely to be helpful in my situation. Loopback by Rogue Amoeba - They were very helpful in attempting to figure out some of my issues.Sound Siphon - this seems to work ok except it doesn't seem to quite work.iShow U Audio Capture - free and seems to work except for the last issue.Screenshot of OBS and Other Software Settings Open up the Audio MIDI Setup app from Applications > Utilities. I just can't get their audio to be piped through to OBS and out to Twitch/YouTube. The audio call works fine and I can hear them, they can hear me. I seem to have gotten the first 3 items working ok - it's just when I add in an audio call with someone that it breaks down. If you check out my Twitch channel, you should be able to see a few videos there showing what I mean. Send audio from a Discord or Skype call with a friend to Twitch.
