YouTube OBS streaming help needed.

[yourkingsley]

Hi,

Streaming live directly from OBS studio to YouTube.

I’ve tried live streaming to YouTube directly from OBS studio but despite following advice and looking at posts etc my stream is still totally out of sync when appearing on my youtube stream, it’s fine on the OBS display screen as it’s all in sync so for example if I wave i can see myself waving but for those watching my youtube stream there’s about a 20 second delay until they see me waving.

The reason why I want to stream directly from OBS studio to YouTube is because it’s easier to add images to my live streams but with having the delay issue it’s pointless.

Streaming live directly from YouTube live.

My YouTube live stream works perfect and is all in sync but I can‘t seem to add images to my YouTube live streams via OBS if I’m streaming directly from YouTube but streaming directly from OBS to YouTube I can get images to appear on my live stream.

If I’m streaming directly from YouTube live is there a way to add images to my live YouTube streams through OBS? Or is there another way I can add images into my live YouTube streams?

sorry for being a pain and hope this post makes sense I just get a bit confused due to a brain injury, but thank you for taking the time to read my messag.

best wishes
karl.

IIRC YouTube on default settings has around 20 seconds delay as normal, you need to adjust the latency setting but that can require adjusting other settings and/or losing features - a YouTube rather than software limitation/problem.

Thank you I’ll give it a go
