Are you a gamer? And do you like to show off your skills to other players? This tutorial is made for you! I’ll show you how to stream to Twitch or Mixer with OBS.
Stream to Twitch
First, you need to login to your Twitch account and go to your dashboard page.
Under settings (found in the left corner) you will find channel.
You will need the stream key, never show this key to anyone! If someone has this key he/she can stream on your channel! If you believe someone has the key, you can reset it by hitting the reset button.
TIP: You can also save your streams by enabling the button “save previous streams.”
Stream To Mixer
First you need to login to your Mixer Account. And go to manage channel.
Click on stream setup manually and now you have to choose your stream software. In my

Now you will see this screen. (see image below)
Change the Mode to “Capture Specific Window” and choose your program/game, in my case it’s Minecraft. Once this is done hit the OK button again. (if you don’t see your game on the OBS screen, go to your game and then back to OBS
Screen Size
My last Tip for this tutorial is if OBS shows a black stroke in the screen and you’ve tried to resize it so the game has the full window. You need to
