▶ Play ClipThis video provides a step-by-step guide on setting up a music ordering system for live streams, where viewers can donate to request a YouTube video clip to be played on stream. The tutorial covers configuring Donation Alerts, integrating OBS with browser sources and dock panels, and adjusting settings to avoid copyright issues.
The video explains how to set up a system where viewers can donate to request a YouTube clip to be played on a live stream.
In Donation Alerts, under 'Media placement', enable the feature and set a minimum donation amount (e.g., 35 rubles). Copy the OBS link for the media widget.
Add a browser source in OBS using the copied link. Name it appropriately (e.g., 'media' or 'music').
Create a dock panel in OBS using the 'Latest Messages' widget from Donation Alerts to control media playback (play, pause, skip).
Test the system by sending a donation with a YouTube link; the clip should play in OBS. The video demonstrates successful playback.
In Media placement settings, set a minimum view count (e.g., 50,000) to prevent inappropriate or low-quality clips from being played.
Apply a color correction filter to the media source and set opacity to minimum to hide the video visually while audio plays, reducing copyright risk on YouTube.
Place the clip behind a full-screen webcam or background to avoid copyright strikes, as demonstrated by other streamers.
Streamers with small audiences can earn significant money through music orders via donations.
Setting up a music order system via donations is straightforward with Donation Alerts and OBS, and can be a lucrative feature for streamers. Using opacity filters or background placement helps avoid copyright issues on YouTube.

03:30[00:01] video. Hello everyone, in this video we will set up a music order for a Donation. Users will be able to send a link from YouTube directly to a stream with any clip. Go to donation alerts and here we are interested in the tab called
[00:17] Media placement and here we see the instructions. We have written that this function will allow your viewers to place media files on your live broadcast along with the usual message sending. I mean with the usual sending and
[00:30] here. The minimum amount is included. I set 35 rubles and now whoever donates 35 rubles will be able to attach a link to the video to the donation. This is very really like it. There are YouTubers who make such alcohol streams with
[00:46] music, but I will explain a little later how this is done. Go back to Media placement and copy the link for OBS. Here, as usual, we add a browser. Let's say it's media or music, there, as convenient, you can already
[00:59] name the address and add the link. Well, all the links that we will broadcast through this browser, but we need to create another control for this, and here it is written that when placing a media video, it will play the
[01:12] latest messages in the widget in preview mode and there are also available controls, this is very convenient, so go to the latest messages widget of the latest messages here I will leave the checkbox to display paid messages and
[01:24] copy the link to this widget in OBS only in this widget only this T we will no longer copy for the browser in sources but for dock panels go to the dock panel and select users Doc panel browser make a name that is
[01:40] convenient for us Well, let's say a widget for music insert the URL of the widget that we copied Well, we pin it where it is convenient for us, for example, I pin it here on the right and now we will do a test of the Media placement for this we go back
[01:52] to the donation alerts site go to the Media placement tab and there we will have a button for our placement go to OBS and see if it works or not as we see the clip went so that the clip lights up in OBS You also need to
[02:06] click on the eye, this is a video from YouTube, so I will not add this sound to my video. Well, I mean the music itself, but the music has already started playing and the clip has started playing. Everything works fine in the Media placement settings. You can set a
[02:19] view limit, that is, users should send us clips with at least 50,000 views because you never know, they might send us all sorts of bans and all sorts of bad videos that haven't passed moderation, let's say on YouTube, still bypassed. Besides all this,
[02:32] we can skip, let's say turn off the video, pause and change the volume on YouTube to watch various music clips, and therefore I will now show how many streamers bypass this. We apply a filter
[02:47] to Media in Media. We select the color correction item and in the color correction we change the opacity, set it to minimum, this way it will be safer to broadcast clips on YouTube broadcasts. You can do this without
[03:02] opacity, but on YouTube. Just in case, so as not to get banned or streamed. Not enough. Is there anything that could happen because everything here is copyrighted? But if you have a background, for example, set your webcam to full screen and
[03:16] opaque clip, and after the the broadcast, then there will be no ban and no strike. So, this will 100% be useful for someone. Use it. I watched streamers, and streamers with a small
[03:30] audience, but with music orders like this, for a donation, they earn pretty good money. I was even surprised. I hope I helped everyone and this will be useful for many. Be sure to like and subscribe to the channel. Also, go to the
[03:43] the design for yourself and subscribe to the VKontakte group. There is a free design for streamers on the wall. Have a nice day everyone. Have a nice day everyone.
