How To Stream On Both DLive And Vimm With Chat Overlay

in dlive •  6 years ago 


Since many of you have been asking me how I get chat from both streams I made this video where I go over on how to stream on both platforms as well as how to get chat from both platforms.

Note that I made the chat overlay myself so it was never meant as something with many customization options or anything. However, since chat is often interested in my overlay I gave it to Dunite and they added it to their overlay. If there is anything you would like to see added to the chat overlay feel free to let me know in the comments below.

Restream is Working But D live is not showing when i press stream now

Hi brothershield, I just streamed on both @vimm and @dlive and everything seems to be working smooth

A few thoughts:

  • Make sure you press save and go live on dlive before you start streaming
  • Don't regenerate your server url everytime you start your stream as it will change the password everytime I believe
  • Start the NGINX server after changing the config file, I can't say this with 100% certainty but I don't believe it detects changes in the config file during run time
  • Everytime I'm done streaming I go to task manager and close the nginx server, after streaming or putting the computer in sleep mode it doesn't seem to work proper if it's not restarted

Hopefully this can help you with getting it to work

It worked Thanks My only issue was not waiting I had to wait on d live first before i press stream on obs however restream.io is now working along with NGINX, now all that is left is how do i now get my dlive stream onto my dtube

Great to hear you got it working

If you're talking about live streaming on dtube as well it works the same way.

Just add "push rtmp://stream.dtube.top/live/ stream key", you only need to get the stream key once and just as with DLive you need to press "submit" before you start streaming.

So if you duo stream on @dlive and @dtube you have to "go live" on one of the two platform, wait at least 5 minutes (there is a 5 minute delay before you can create another post on Steem's blockchain which is nessecary for the platforms) Click go live on the other one and only after that you can click start streaming in obs.

If you want to add @vimm to the mix you don't have to wait an additional 5 minutes. Once you click start streaming you'll go live on vimm.tv and only then the platform tries to create a post, if it can't because of the 5 minute cool down it will just try again in the next 5 minutes until succesful (unless you choose the option of streaming without creating a post, but then you can't get any up vote rewards)

Happy streaming ;)

What line of the config file should I add the push command to?

Line 15 right underneath the live on underneath the application live

    worker_processes  1;

    error_log  logs/error.log debug;

    events {
        worker_connections  1024;
    }


    rtmp {
        server {
            listen 1935;

            application live {
                live on;
                push ...
           }
           ...

Ok so lets say I want to stream on D live and Dtube (got the key by the way its all set up) i have to wait 5 min for Dlive then wait another 5 for D tube or do i wait 5 min and click on both?

You press go live on one of the two platforms, wait until the post is created on the blockchain, wait 5 minutes go live on the other platform and from than on you can start streaming.

Note that the more platforms you stream on the more you also upload, if you notice lag of any sort you might have to lower your bitrate in OBS accordingly

Perfect Thats all i needed to know thanks so much bro

Anytime, enjoy your streams ;)
