How to use OBS

Visit the official OBS website and download the version compatible with your system.

Click the "OBS" button to get your unique streaming URL on your host live room.

Once installed, launch OBS and close the welcome wizard. You'll see the main interface.

1️⃣ This is the live preview window (black until sources are added).

2️⃣ Create and manage different scenes here.

3️⃣ Add video and audio sources for each scene.

In the Sources panel, click the "+", select "Screen Capture", and click OK.

In the Sources panel, Click the "+" again, select "Audio Input Capture", choose your mic, and click OK.

Speak into your mic and watch the Audio Mixer. If the volume bar moves, your audio is working.

If you’re using two monitors, select the screen you want to stream, then click OK. You should now see your screen in the preview window.

Go to Settings → Stream. Set Service to Custom.

Enter the Server and stream key from your OBS Streaming section.

Back on the homepage, click "Start Streaming" to begin. You can now preview your stream inside Pumpkin Vibe.

To stop streaming, click "Stop Streaming" in OBS, then click "Exit OBS" in Pumpkin live stream.

If the stream lags, check the bottom-right corner for dropped frames or poor network status.

A red indicator means your connection is unstable. Try switching to a faster network.

Your OBS settings impact stream quality and smoothness. We recommend using the following setup for the best performance and viewer experience.
