Hey, I'm Dale and this
is Live Streaming Tech
and if you want to learn how
to live stream like a pro,
make sure that you
subscribe to the channel
and turn your bell notifications to on
so you don't miss a single video.
Hey, what live streaming
platforms do you enjoy?
We definitely would love to hear from you
and hear what your insights
and experiences have been so far.
I know that, for me,
I've been playing around
a little bit with the Restream.io platform
and that helps me aggregate
or send out to multiple
platforms at the same time.
However, my brother Walt leans
a little bit more in favor of Mobcrush.
In fact, he finds it to be
a bit more cost effective
but it does have its fair shares
of headaches, hassles, and horse manure
but I don't want to poop on this
because he does like it
and there's a good reason
why he continues to use it
and you're gonna see how easy it is.
So check it out.
- [Walt] Okay, so here we are.
We're in Streamlabs OBS,
here I am in my account.
I have a $11.01 bonus, I did
have $15 and I went ahead
and picked up Mobcrush
through the App Store
and you can find all these
cool little apps down here,
some of 'em are good, some of 'em aren't.
I mean, I shouldn't say
that they're not good,
it's just I don't see that
I would use many of 'em
but I guess it depends on
taste, it's kind of like music.
I picked up Mobcrush,
I am a big fan of multi-streaming software
or multi-streaming services
that will put it up on there.
Now, however, I should
probably put this out
and give you all fair warning,
if you are affiliate or partner of Twitch,
you have to remember your
live streaming content
is there's for 24 hours
after the stream ends.
So, it's kind of a big no-no
to be streaming on YouTube
and Facebook and Mixer while
also live streaming on Twitch.
Here's the thing, if
you're a small streamer,
you're more likely to
probably get away with it
but I'm just putting that
warning out there right now.
I used to do the multi-stream a lot
and pretty much stopped doing it shortly
after I got my affiliate status
because if you read through
the Terms of Service, the TOS,
that basically that's what they say,
is that content is there's for 24 hours
then after that, you can do
whatever you wish with it,
upload it to YouTube,
chop it up, turn it into highlight clips,
whatever you want to do
but it is there's so this
is the word of the warning.
Let's go ahead and let's get on with this.
Let's go ahead and get started.
Step One, it says Link Accounts.
Log in with your platform of choice.
Then, make sure to link your
accounts from other channels
so you can stream everywhere at once.
Step Two: Before every stream,
you can choose your stream destination,
game title, stream title, and description.
Now see, I like that.
So, for instance, before
you start your stream,
you can choose your stream destination.
So, for instance, say you are
a Twitch partner or a Twitch affiliate
and you're afraid of breaking
these Terms of Services,
but yet you still want to multi-stream
to YouTube, Facebook, and Mixer,
you probably can get away with that
as long as you're not live on Twitch.
However, that will increase your
streaming time
so, because obviously
you're still gonna want
to put your time in at Twitch
and stream on Twitch as well.
For instance, I used to do Fridays,
Friday mornings were my
Facebook only streams
where I streamed mobile phone content,
such as little mobile games
like Clash of Clams, Clash
Royale, those type of things.
So, that's also another idea.
So this is another way to build,
and that's the other thing too.
Those of who are working hard on building
their Twitch channel,
their Twitch content,
that's the other thing too,
build on other media platforms
such as YouTube, Facebook,
Instagram, Twitter,
so on so forth.
You gotta spread that net
out to catch more fish.
And the fish being the viewers.
All right, show off your
skills on every platform,
blah blah blah blah.
All right, let's go ahead and Get Started.
All right.
So this is the first time I've
done this so bare with me.
Continue with the, let's see here,
continue with all of them, right?
All right, here we go.
So this is where you all close your eyes.
We went ahead and we put in
the Twitch verification code.
If you don't have that
set up through Twitch,
I recommend doing it especially
if you are a Twitch
affiliate or Twitch partner
to where you are getting
payments from there.
You don't want anyone else
accessing your account very easily
so definitely set that up.
It says, "You are creating a new profile,
if you have a previous profile,
sign in with the existing account.
Are you sure you want to continue?"
Yes.
All right, and there we are.
So I guess we put our Username in here.
So I'm gonna stick with...
Hit Continue.
Thank you for checking out Mobcrush
Be sure to click Save Broadcast Info
before each stream.
Now I did read some forums on this
and the majority of the
people's issues that they had
was it not broadcasting to the platforms
that they were wanting it broadcasted to
and that's because most of
the time the data came back
and said, "You have to make sure you
Save Broadcast Info before each stream."
So, notice this, they are basically,
they even have a little
picture of a wolf down there,
so we said, "Ok. Got it."
Hopefully that pops up again
because that is probably easy to forget.
Especially if you're in a hurry,
you just got home from work
or just got home from school,
and you're wanting to stream.
All right, so here we go.
Streaming Targets:
Here's where you can link
your live streaming platforms,
toggle any of them on or
off or unlink them entirely.
You can also log in with
any linked platform.
So, I guess now we have to connect
the Facebook account or YouTube account
and our Mixer account.
Monitor incoming messages from every
enabled platform while live streaming.
Okay, cool.
So, that's the Unified Chat.
Let's connect with our Facebook account.
Mobcrush are like the Manager Pages.
This is what I was wanting.
There we go.
Yup.
Boom.
Done.
Okay, that's what I was wanting.
Connect YouTube account.
Let's do that.
(clicking)
Okay, now it's gonna
manage our YouTube account.
Very well.
Continue.
All right, let me see if
I can't remember my Mixer.
I dabbled in Mixer for a little bit.
Wow, that took forever.
(mumbles)
There it is.
So it looks like we
have everything set up.
Okay, so it opens up another browser.
Okay, let's go on and look at this.
We'll test that later in a minute.
Target Facebook Page
here we go
Stream Duration 4hrs+
If you set your stream for
longer than four hours,
the video will not be saved
on the Facebook website.
Mature Broadcast, Mixer only.
We're definitely mature broadcast.
We used to have that on Twitch.
I think they took it away
but I still have mine linked as mature
so it has never came off.
Select Game
Ask us to add it for future streams.
Okay, so we're gonna do
this like as a test thing.
We're gonna do Rick and
Morty, Pocket Morty's
What's in a title?
Everything's in a title.
People sit there and think.
Other people ignore the new titles.
We have that, everything looks good.
And I usually keep my stream
anywhere around two to three hours.
Broadcast Description:
Okay, the broadcast
descriptions you are using
exclusively by YouTube and Facebook.
Okay, saving info overwrites any previous
Streamlabs OBS settings
with your Mobcrush
multi-stream key and settings.
So we can come back to
this at a later time
but I'm gonna go ahead.
I'm gonna jump on and I'm
gonna test all this out
to see how well it works.
And our stream this
month is zero to 45 hours
so hopefully when we come back,
we'll see at least an hour or two on there
and I will let you know what
I think of this Mobcrush.
