Blank screen on MFC when using OBS elsewhere (help!)

[Deleted member 50951]

Hi guys, I need some tech advice please!

I just set up OBS to broadcast on Chaturbate using a logitech cam. It's set up and working fine. But then when I try to broadcast on MFC using logitech or manycams I just get a blank (white) screen. Any ideas what the problem is? I'm unable to use both sites together at the moment

Forgive if I misread something, but, if you're using it with a direct stream you'd need to enter the unique stream key for the site you want to broadcast on. I believe if you want to broadcast to both at the same time, you need to run 2 instances of OBS, or use it as a virtual cam, not RTMP.

If I recall you're not a model, so you won't have access to all this stuff, but there's info in this thread about how models should set up their OBS:

and I see I misread haha.

I think logitech software or manycams won't pull the video as the webcam is "in use" by OBS.

OK, thanks. I have access to the accounts so I can set all this up, although you're right, I'm not a model myself.

So is there a solution to this? What software should we use for MFC?

You can use OBS for CB and virtual cam plugin https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-virtualcam.949/ to broadcast via the website to myfreecams.

An alternative is to use logi capture to allow you to load the camera into both obs and the website.

OK, thanks for the info! I'd had a quick look at OBS virtual cam but not enough to investigate fully. Logi is the option we're looking into now, so hopefully we can get this fixed very soon. By the way, when I set up the CB profile yesterday I used the CB Hours buttons They look great on there.

Hello BillyWhizzS3

You can try our Program called SplitCam it's free Multi-Stream Software , that mean your can streaming to CB + MFC + any sites at the same time, with stream keys with good quality and no need any virtualcam for it.
Here you can see video tutorial how to do that :
