How to Start Streaming on Twitch | Complete Beginner's Guide | OBS, Donation Alerts, and Bot Setup

[00:02] streaming on Twitch. I've watched a bunch of guides, but they all tear apart a beginner from start to finish. That's why I had to spend about a week just to understand many aspects of Twitch, and

[00:15] small part, but I already want to show it to you. The first thing I want to do is give advice to the guys. In order to stream on Twitch, you need to pour an audience from somewhere, so create your own YouTube channels, VK, upload shorts, make sure that your

[00:30] ask why this is necessary, yes, because Twitch itself does not promote you, for this you need to complete some achievements, more on this a little later. And that's why, in order to the audience for the start, you need to generate content and then pour it

[00:45] want to do what I did. The same mistake, you know, no one will watch you, but you understand, sitting alone and staring at the screen is

[00:57] not the way to play. Also, my recommendation would be that before you do anything at all. To stream, you need to work on yourself, start making some recordings, work on the camera, come up with some of your own jokes, your own tricks, because the most important thing on a stream is the

[01:10] guys' mood. If you're not in the mood, you're just sitting there staring at the screen, then you're not interesting to watch. Don't make the mistakes I made. Well, since the introduction is over, let's move on to the settings, because this is the most important thing and the

[01:22] first thing I recommend starting with is Twitch itself. After you've Author's Control Panel. Go to analytics and achievements. Here we can view absolutely all the achievements. We physically need them for

[01:35] Twitch to start promoting our account. There is also an achievement here: "A lot or a little?" We need to complete it so that Twitch will allow those who that Twitch will allow those who watch us on the stream to change their

[01:48] quality. That's why in the future in OBS we will set the optimal After viewing all the achievements, go to settings and broadcast. Here we turn on protection when

[02:01] the connection is lost, low latency mode in order to communicate with our chat live. Then there's a warning about the sound. copyrighted save past broadcasts we need this point so that

[02:16] after we stream this Stream is automatically saved for 7 days, this is a very useful function After all, some highlight moment can happen on your stream and if you don’t save it or don’t click

[02:31] Well, I personally would be sad about this I even have an example of how I was streaming alone, but then two guys flew to me, first they wrote and then I was

[02:43] just in shock, they threw me a small donation and this donation raised my spirits so much that after that my hands were shaking and I was just beside hands were shaking and I was just beside myself, honestly, I was in shock, you know It’s like a

[02:58] small child Oh, to give that very toy that he Oh, to give that very toy that he wanted for a very, very long time, wanted for a very, very long time, that’s the same for me, these two guys were there and

[03:12] honestly, I would like to click on them, but because I had this setting turned off, I couldn’t do it, so we turn it on, then the clips, accordingly, we turn it on in the same way so that you yourself could fake it, it’s either

[03:26] your subscribers or Not subscribers Just who is watching this Could make a clip out of this from some funny moment Next, the setting is to add the clip to these clips are displayed on the main page of our channel Next, the rest of the

[03:41] settings will be dynamic I'll explain what's what By the way, they are the permissions for the channels that you can manage as an editor If you are appointed a moderator, you will have a list of this channel of these channels of people

[03:55] who can broadcast on your channel This is accordingly You will also give access to other people, so I'm saying all the settings that will be further they are dynamic they will change depending on

[04:08] how many people are watching you, what situation you are in, and so on Next, raids here I have set the optimal

[04:25] from the moment of account creation is 30 this is necessary so that bots are not cheated with the help of a raid on A your Stream Although this can be done using a third-party link there are paid services, but now, in short, that's not what Let's

[04:40] protect ourselves as little as possible so that bots do not watch us We don't bots do not watch us We don't need this Twitch if it sees Such and such a need this Twitch if it sees Such and such a ban, then go to the channel here.

[04:56] Directly set the username, display name, write about username, display name, write about yourself, what we want to fill in. Yes, it can be some big text, maybe small. It does n’t matter. Links to social networks, of course,

[05:09] n’t matter. Links to social networks, of course, we put all our profiles there, VK, YouTube, donation, and so on. Next, go to Brand. Here is the profile accent color. You can change the profile banner at your discretion -

[05:24] profile banner at your discretion - this is such a thing when you rub it, people will go to your channel instead of an empty space, they will see this banner of your ban, the profile banner. By the way, I need to change it. Next, the video player banner

[05:39] when you are offline, you should have some kind of picture, so you can also insert something at your discretion. Next, the schedule, I do n’t really recommend you set it because it is much easier to create your own

[05:53] Telegram channel for the future and announce your Stream there and notify your subscribers about it because Twitch has this thing that it doesn’t always notify your subscribers in advance that you will soon start a Stream, if it

[06:08] does this at all, of course. For me personally, the schedule is some kind of US Here's the recommended suggested channels. I checked this box. When I'm offline, depending on what I'm streaming,

[06:23] my subscribers will be offered channels on the same topic. I recently used this. Well, it's obvious what you play, what categories you stream. Everything will be displayed here. Next, go to moderation.

[06:39] dynamic setting. But first, you can set the parameters that can set the parameters that I have. Let's pause it there and take I have. Let's pause it there and take something from this. I'm slowly

[06:58] phrases. I have a large list here. Of course, it's very large. You can find all the words online, but I'll leave a link to a YouTube leave a link to a YouTube video in the description where there is a database of these words. I'd

[07:14] even say it's a small list. In fact, the allowed words are obvious. We have them here, skip detection, ban bypass, and I have level two access information about bans. Well, it's obvious. I have n't banned anyone yet. Block

[07:27] hyperlinks if any, say, So, a good or bad person is watching your stream and suddenly decided to leave some links. This isn't always a good thing.

[07:39] But since you won't have much online traffic at first, you can leave this, this, and this. This is exactly it. much online traffic at first, you can leave this, this, and this. This is exactly it. Further confirmation for chat participants here, I set minimum security

[07:54] because you are nobody on Twitch. Let's talk about the facts and see. You may have zero accounts, yes, it's possible that bots will write, but for me, bots write very, very rarely. And this is the setting. Every person who

[08:09] comes in can calmly write to me in the chat. Further, the chat rules. You can fill them out because every time a person starts writing to you in the chat, this rule will pop up. This is a very convenient feature. Further,

[08:24] very convenient feature. Further, requests for unblocking and other dynamic settings. Here we go through the basics. So, we've finished with the basic Twitch settings and I'll leave all the useful links on

[08:38] how to configure the description and other Twitch settings in detail other Twitch settings in detail in the description. Go and see. He goes into all this in depth, just like I did. We're right here with you. We're talking about complete

[08:53] beginners who don't even know where to start, so the next link is obs donation alerts, and we'll start with obs. You

[09:06] obs donation alerts, and we'll start with obs. You developer's official website or download it all from Steam. After you've downloaded and installed it, a window opens. For now, don't pay

[09:21] attention to all this and the decorations. Go to the settings, select the service you need, YouTube or Twitch. In this case, Twitch. Register in your account and you don't need to enter any keys. Twitch chat extension. Set bttv and

[09:34] Twitch chat extension. Set bttv and Fe. As far as I remember, this chat extension opens for us, or rather, not for us. It opens for chat participants. It opens the ability to use certain emoticons. It's a kind of easy-to-

[09:47] install extension. I would even say so. Next, go to the output here. Audio track. Set the track to one on Twitch. Check the box and set it to six. Then the audio encoder. F. Aa. Video encoder. Let's

[10:03] If you have an NVIDIA video card, you won't need it.

[10:15] which is very sad, then you clearly need a powerful processor. Here we insert H264, then we immediately understand that our Stream will heavily load the processor. Well, for those who have AMD, it is

[10:29] clear that we choose AMD. Each video encoder has its own fine-tuning. But since I have NVIDIA, I will show you using my example. Output scaling is what I

[10:43] mentioned earlier in the achievements at Twitch initially. When you start streaming, Twitch will not allow those who watch you to choose the quality, and if someone has a weak Internet connection, then not everyone will be able to watch in 1920 by 1000.

[11:00] Yes, in 1080 and 60 frames, so here we set the output scaling to 1280 by by 720. Then, bitrate control is CBR and

[11:13] Tray 6000 is the recommended setting of Twitch itself. You do not need to move anywhere left or right. Stream, you will have a stable keyframe interval of 2 seconds. Preset slow good quality adjustment high

[11:28] quality dual pass quad resolution profile psychovisual correction This is the checkbox here Yes we put it so that we do not have various flickering there freezes and

[11:40] various flickering there freezes and so on and the maximum bi-frames is two we will briefly go over the settings What is Tray and how to configure it correctly install for tube and other link in the description guys link in the description next

[11:56] preset adjustment press and profile we set everything depending on the power of your PC remembered yes we can play with these settings as we want For me it allows for now Yes preset slow

[12:10] good quality adjustment Well the settings that I showed you that's why I set them exactly like this then we can go to recording here I have settings you can pause basically this item We need it so that

[12:25] this item We need it so that during twitch we can record some video or something else and then make a cut from it in good quality As for example Feni does this as far as I understand then go to audio here

[12:40] we set the microphone additional sound we set what we will use to communicate with the viewer if you have several Here we set the microphones in several Here we set the microphones in the same way as the equipment with

[12:52] which we will record the sound, then the decay rate is slow and measure the type of VS. This also affects your processor. Therefore, if the computer is not powerful. Yes,

[13:04] processor. Therefore, if the computer is not powerful. Yes, here we set the simplified and the decay type is this, you here we set the simplified and the decay type is this, you no abrupt break in the sound, in essence, then the listening device. Well, it is

[13:20] clear that by default it is either some headphones that you will headphones that you will insert or VS speakers. Anything here I did not touch anything, but still for beginners. Let's analyze. I also

[13:34] I'm a beginner, no need for now. Let's go into all this further. Next, go to the video. Here we have the basic resolution of the ST - this is the resolution of your monitor. We set the one that is needed in my case is 1920 by 1080. The

[13:50] large-scale output resolution is what we will record, as I understand it, in the new will record, as I understand it, in the new version of OBS. The slit does not affect the settings of the broadcast itself, so I have it here

[14:08] the broadcast itself, so I have it here when recording. Since it is convenient for me, we go to the extended version and set the process priority to medium if We see that our Stream is lagging, we set it to high to show a warning about active

[14:21] output operations when exiting, if we start to close OBS, it will warn us that, dude, you're recording, come on, pause it, and think a few times whether you need to turn it off. This is a good

[14:41] As I already said, CS Pub and other things, here we can set it to 20 seconds so must understand that since we have a delay, accordingly, your responses to what they write in the chat will also be delayed. With the settings, we

[14:58] figured it out. Let's go to scenes and sources. To create a scene, you need to right-click, add, need to right-click, add, name, click Okay, or through the plus sign.

[15:10] Whichever is more convenient for you, then go to sources based on my sources. Now we'll figure everything out in order. What is a Media source when viewing a large number of Guides? I noticed that many people just take and drag the file

[15:24] from Explorer directly to OBS, but I have Unfortunately, this doesn't work, so I'm using the Media source, and let's say before my Stream starts, I course, with editing, but in order for it to play automatically in our OS,

[15:40] right-click, add the Media source, click on it, name it, select a local file, click on browse, and select its path here.

[15:52] Don't forget that if you delete this file, it will disappear from your OBS too. Next, to make this file loop, click on repeat here, restart playback when the source becomes active. That is, it

[16:07] will be looped. We set the speed to 100% if we want to speed up this file, of course, we set it faster or slower. The color range here is set automatically. Click OK. Next, we see that I have a large

[16:20] OK. Next, we see that I have a large number of browser windows, and using donations as an example, we'll now figure out how to add various widgets. To do this, go to donation Alert, log in, register through Twitch, and we'll say "Father,"

[16:36] then go to notifications and see what we have. There are a lot of notifications and see what we have. There are a lot of windows here, but don't be afraid, two absolutely standard groups presented here and Let's talk about donations, here we

[16:51] settings in the main settings, set the duration of our donation message, we want to see it in speech synthesis, we can turn it on or off, or even do it for an additional fee. Yes, so that we have voice acting, we also set the

[17:07] volume, and so on and so forth, we also set the price tag, how much it will cost us, then go to the view, here we see the design how the entire Donation will be located, that is, how the picture relates to the text,

[17:21] I have an absolutely Standard option, then select an image in order to upload it, go to yes, click upload file, select the file we need, I uploaded a cat here, Yes, click

[17:36] uploaded a cat here, Yes, click apply and leave everything. For now, so on, go to sound, here we click here, also absolutely, upload a custom sound or choose something from the gallery, I chose the

[17:50] coin sound here and click apply, then the text, go to styling, here we set the font, color, animation, etc., etc. The only thing I recommend you do is

[18:06] go to the background and remove this background completely. Otherwise, if you do this, then your text will have a black background like this. I don't like it,

[18:18] so I'm removing it completely. Everything will come to us. Donations will come without a background. We don't touch this thing, then go to the touch this thing, then go to the audio message, because when donating,

[18:31] messages and send them directly to you. But if there are any restrictions, then it won't bring anything good for you. Next, the background for the message. Well, accordingly, you can also set it to transparent here. Then save all

[18:45] set it to transparent here. Then save all these settings and how can we these settings and how can we see? Well, is everything working for us? How can we insert this into OBS? To do this, show the embed link,

[18:57] click copy, go to ABS, right-click, add a right-click, add a browser, and here we do it, for example, we write Donation there. Yes, and click Okay, here we insert the link

[19:13] from OBS. Oh, I apologize for the donation alerts. Yes, here is the body, we remove this background, and we essentially get a ready-made window like this, and

[19:25] how can we check whether Donation is working for us or not? Let's go back to or not? Let's go back to clicking on the gear to make a test notification, please, everything works. We received it with

[19:37] voice acting because we have it enabled directly, and using this widget with a donation as an example, we do absolutely everything the same. If we want to put stickers there, please put their subscription, raids, tops of the month, media from YouTube,

[19:56] subscription, raids, tops of the month, media from YouTube, and so on and so forth. Now, in more detail with these widgets, I found you a guide and I'll leave it exactly the same in the description. Next, we'll move on to the basics. Yes, and we'll figure out the webcam. Let's see, so

[20:11] I have an e-mail. Yes, I have it, please, here it is. How can we make it? Right- click, add, insert a video capture device here, click next. We'll get this

[20:26] window open. Here we select the device. If we have a webcam, of course. Yes, here we can configure it in detail, how it will work for us, and click Okay, calm down. We've figured it out further. Raids, subscriptions, all

[20:42] browser windows, of course, we inserted. Next, see. What is window and screen capture? Well, a screen is Of course, add and here we do a

[20:54] screen capture. Look, the following situation arises. If, for example, you want to reset Alta there, go to your desktop or open some program, but at the same time you don’t want to burn it on the stream, it’s better to turn off the screen capture. Of course, turn on the screen capture.

[21:08] And for this, it’s better to enable window capture. As we do, as we add this source, right-click again, add window capture, press Okay and select directly our window that we want people to

[21:24] see on the stream. Let’s say if we have some game, for example, CSGO. I’ll have some game, for example, CSGO. I’ll explain. Go to the settings and there, not the full screen, the settings in the window, then you go to the

[21:38] settings in the window, then you go to the window capture, here you indicate the CS and that’s it. You can calmly, ataba, and you will be able to see all the donations. Yes. Well, of course, the window should be at the very bottom, everything else should be an

[21:51] overlay on top, you will be able to see the CS. You can calmly, Alta, and do your business there, let’s say during some break. We’ve dealt with this perfectly with Webor, let’s move on, now we’ll deal with our windows. That is,

[22:06] I have a chat here, the settings of the Twitch itself, and this donation window, that is, all the absolute information, a kind of interface, and if I had a second here and observe what is

[22:20] to the dock panel, since we have already registered in OBS. We will need to click on the chat and click on information about the broadcast and how to work with the

[22:32] donation window. To do this, go to donation alerts. Here we go to the latest messages, the widget for the latest messages and show the embed link. After we copied it, we went back to ABS, clicked on the dock panel, the custom

[22:48] dock panel of the browser, here we made a name and pasted the URL that we dock panel that appears, it opens for us, and we paste it where

[23:00] we need it, and therefore we get a full-size interface. Where we are We can observe what is happening on our stream in general. That is to buy an additional second monitor, but at the start, one

[23:16] monitor is enough and that will be enough. Look, so that we don’t have to open OBS every time and jump between windows ourselves. Yes. To do this, you need to bind the keys for go to the settings, hotkeys, and here we directly

[23:33] hotkeys, and here we directly begin to hammer in those keys so that we can switch scenes between each other, and also, let’s say, if we need to turn on and if we need to turn on and off the NM microphone separately and also with a

[23:45] webcam, but don’t forget that the following works with a webcam. set, say, a webcam, yes, you have it as the basis for me, it’s just as the

[23:59] basis. I put these keys as the basis, they will be remembered only as the basis for the rest. I would recommend that you simply copy it all and put it on the rest. Here are the

[24:11] rest. Here are the scenarios for how it all works, transitions we have this kind of graph, transitions between scenarios, here we set the fading or trimming. Yes, it’s also worth considering that there are various

[24:25] considering that there are various plugins for transitions, but I didn’t find any in Japan. If they will be I'll definitely send them there in the comments, so write to me and remind me, but I set the attenuation here to 1000 milliseconds, and let's

[24:37] say I'm starting and I want to switch to the base. That is, my stream has see. And how do we start? Stream, please, that's it. The

[24:51] main window opens there, the game, and so on, and so on. So what else should I show? It seems to me that we've figured out the donation alerts with OBS. We've

[25:04] figured out all the links for working with widgets. I'll leave them in the description. What else do we still need to do? And the last

[25:21] n't quite figured out how it works there yet because the interface is English and everything is quite complicated, but in Mobot, I personally found the interface to be as intuitive as possible. Go to the Mobot website, register with a

[25:35] Twitch account, then go to Custom commands, and here we can set up various commands, let's say some funny commands, maybe additional rules. Yes, if someone breaks them, you take it and prescribe it. That's how it is. That's it.

[25:50] breaks them, you take it and prescribe it. That's how it is. That's it. rules op, the bot understands this, please. In this chat, it builds the team

[26:04] you need. Let me demonstrate. How it works. Let me write, "Damn, lost, everything is like this." Okay, it's created here. I'll write, "Unfortunately, I lost my socks. Please, if you find them,

[26:20] lost my socks. Please, if you find them, write to me in the chat." Period. Yes, if we want this team to be published here, we tick the box. We don't mess with the rest. We don't need it yet.

[26:34] Click everything is fine here. Let's see how we did it. Damn, lost. Yes, we write it in a test hour. Damn, about without a space, lost. Op, Unfortunately, I

[26:48] lost my socks. Please, if you find them, write to me in the chat. Everything, what have write to me in the chat. Everything, what have we set up together? Yes, we've sorted out the OBS superficially, we've sorted out the

[27:00] we set up together? Yes, we've sorted out the OBS superficially, we've sorted out the donation alerts, we've

[27:12] sorted out the SMU Bot, all the additional links will be in the description. Yes, how do we work with the webcam, how do we do it properly? Everything is absolutely useful. Everything I've will be in the description. Initially, I

[27:28] description. Initially, I put myself in the shoes of a beginner and I don't need all of this. I need to provide the information from start I need to provide the information from start to finish, that is, short tips and as concise as possible,

[27:40] to finish, that is, short tips and as concise as possible, but at the same time, here is did all this together, this is [ __ ] awesome, this is cool. If you have any

[27:55] questions, write to me because I read absolutely every comment and answer it. Go to me on Twitch. Yes, we will sit together and develop,

[28:07] study some interesting topics, maybe just sit and get stuck in CS, play movies, watch Well, why not? Yes, I think that my guide is a kind of

[28:22] ultimate because it has collected the main points. Yes, there are no details. But

[28:36] YouTube, this is just [ __ ] honestly, I'm tired of watching all these guides. Here are 50 tips for a streamer, here are 80 tips for a

[28:49] tips for a streamer, here are 80 tips for a streamer. And here you set up OBS. And here you are streamer. And here you set up OBS. And here you are Batay. And here, make a webcam separately, I made a collection for you, guys, girls, everyone. Gentlemen,

[29:12] ladies, this video was difficult for me, let's switch to mine. Yes, I love

[29:30] We [music] Run
