Exciting news! A breakthrough with OBS

GUYS!! Couple updates for you.

Firstly – thank you so much for everyone who not only kindly migrated across from Patreon, but in every single case came across on the Rokk God tier!! That’s amazing. Also, a big welcome to Clive – Lord Kensal – Illenden who very kindly joined the Patron this week too.

I’m really excited today as I’ve had a dream for some time of being able to find a way to use Streamyard-like features (mainly the highlighting of chat comments) without actually having to use Streamyard (limitations creatively and of course – monthly fees). Well, today I finally cracked it! By thinking totally out of the box I’ve managed to combine Streamyard with OBS and achieve exactly what I was aiming for but with the added advantage of a) controlling it all locally at the quality I set (SY is fixed at 720p); leveraging the simplicity of Streamyard; adding additional animations and unlimited layouts; without paying Streamyard fees! How cool is that! I actually think I’m the first person in the world to have devised the process!

Below is my proof of concept (unlisted on YouTube).

How neat is this! Since I made this I’ve set up awesome transitions that all happen in unison and are programmed into Touch Portal (a sort of Streamdeck on the cheap – noticing a pattern here lol).

You’ll get a first glimpse of my hard work when I roll this out on Sunday in Stadia Rokks Live with Duncan.
