Anything I've done wrong?
Any help is appreciated!
nevermind.. it just took a few tries and restarts :)
Can I express how simple it is to set up OBS over other broadcasting software?! Can I also express how helpful this tutorial can be? Especially for new comers! This should be the go to post for new comers to dlive!
Brilliant! This got me off the ground with DLive. Thank you.
I like Dlive idea n stuff, but its almost impossible for me to start due to some weird errors such as "end your ongoing broadcast" even if im offline or "Update failed, reason:Error: GraphQL error: could not update post by guest user: [zyragon]"
Any clues?
cool
How do I set a thumbnail for my stream? I tried using all sorts of images but they all don't work - and I can't stream without having a thumbnail
I'm having the same problem, also looking for an answer. If i find it I will pass it along. Hope to see you streaming soon.
I basically just made a jpeg image in GIMP, doesn't look like there are issues with the uploader.
