Streaming with Open Broadcast Studio (OBS)

OBS is a free program for streaming to various streaming services, and can be used to stream to qwer.ee.

Creating a custom stream output

When you install OBS it comes with a bunch of pre-configured stream outputs for popular streaming services. Since we're not one of them, we need to setup a custom stream output.

A custom stream output for qwer.ee

The above picture shows how the stream output could look like:

  1. First we need to select the custom service
  2. Specify the ingest server for qwer.ee. This is also where you specify the stream visibility.
  3. Paste the stream key from your account page

After configuring this you should be able to start streaming, but you should probably take a quick look at Optimizing bandwidth in order to lower your bandwidth and make the stream more accessible for other people.
