Multiple RTMP outputs plugin 2020-05-17

[KattPhloxworthy]

How long do I have to wait to get help with this? I cant use OBS because of this stupid addon that is causing problems with my streams. Please someone tell me how to get rid of this garbage!

First, of all, please temper your response. That will go a long way toward helping you get help.

Given the appearance of your screenshots, I am assuming you are running some version of Windows. Please tell me otherwise if I am wrong.

If it is Windows, you will need to do the following:

Open Explorer, then navigate to where OBS Studio is installed.

In most cases, it will be in C:\Progam Files\obs-studio

Adjust as necessary.

Then you will go into the obs-plugins\64-bit folder within, then delete the files: obs-multi-rtmp.dll obs-multi-rtmp.pdb

Then go back up two folders so you're back in C:\Progam Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit, then go into the data\obs-plugins folder, then delete the folder: obs-multi-rtmp

Since you said you had uninstalled your OBS Studio, you will need to reinstall the plugins you intend to continue using.

You're welcome.

I'm having the exact issue, only half of my stream is on faceboo and Youtube. In OBS 30.1.2 it appears to be fibe both starting and stopping the broadcast. I do however go to "Start Streaming" then in the multioutput window "click" start all.
Any information or resolution to this issue would be appreciated.

Really? Because I have to give him enough credit that he actually GOT a response whereas I and a few others are still awaiting solutions...

Just saying, maybe causing a ruckus has its merits.

Hi, i have a problem with this plugin. I think a lot of time ago i install it with exe file and now i get this:

It happened when i tried to isntall the new plugin with exe and asks me to unistall the plugin. In fact if i try to use always the exe always ask me to delete this plugin. But if i search on obs folder the dll files etc they aren't avaible... In fact if i put the plugin folders into obs folder i get the new one, but i still have the bugged old one too. How i can fix this?

I installed this plugin yesterday, but I was unable to opened. I have a mac. Not only that, but I check the bar menus of the screen, but I can't find the option. Please, help!.
Thank you,

Hi everyone, I stream on YouTube and Twitch, I set it to 6000 for both, on YouTube it says everything is ok, but on Twitch it says the average bitrate is too high, does anyone know how to resolve this? says unstable connection

First of all, thanks for being the one to help me realize I'm not the only one seeing this.

For now, I just monitor my streams and my Rule 0 for my chat is to immediately inform me about any technical issues. This holds especially true since stream buildup and encoding are handled by two completely different computers with NDI being used to move data from the "studio" PC to the "encoder" PC, while two more feed content into the "studio" PC, notably the "VTuber" and "gaming" PCs.

OK, I finally figured out my and most everyone else's stability issues. Thanks, Katt for... IDK, hanging out?

So, if you're like me and use Wifi to stream on. I discovered that I was just a bit outside the Wifi range. I purchased an extender, and that solved EVERYTHING. As for bitrate. You should do a speed test to see what your bandwidth is and your total bitrate between all streams should be 50-75% of your total upload speed. So in @luisamanetti's case, they are sending 12mb/s of stream data. Make sure your upload speed is 24mb/s or more. If not, adjust your bitrate per stream to fit that upload speed.

It's easy to blame this plugin especially when we're given this level of support, but check your connection health/speed first. The plugin itself is working as it should, it's just a bit advanced for some. Hope this helps.

Thank you,

I've had a similar experience. I was using the plugin fine (Rumble and YouTube)
Then I updated my version of OBS to 30.2.2 (64Bit Ubuntu via apt - not flatpack) and the plugin is no-where to be found.
I reinstalled the plugin and still nothing. No evidence the plugin exists.
Could be a compatibility issue with new version of OBS on Ubuntu?
FYI other plugins survived the update and are working fine such as waveform.
Anyone else experiencing this?

God is good!
The plugin seems excellent, i am trying to fix some of the stability issues on my 30.x install. Right now it doesn't provide binary releases and must be built from source. Looking into how to best do this now.

I have a question about this plug in, Works well with everything, but one question. I usually have setting "Take from OBS" for Encoders. But if i will create OutputA with it's own Encoder setting and then with make OutputB and will use "Take from OutputA" - will it use same Encoder Channel in NVEnc or will it create another one?

Like, when you use "Take from OBS" it doesn't create any other Encoder channel and thus not creating pressure on GPU.

"Take from OBS" means just that. It takes the settings you have for OBS's built-in streaming encoder process and uses them for that stream. Of course, any others can use other settings (different profile, different bitrate, etc.), but if you say, "Take from OBS", your settings there will directly be used in that session. That's how I can simulcast to YouTube and Twitch and still have the same high quality on both streams, yet still be in compliance with (one of) Twitch's simulcasting provisos. If I had to use different quality settings in any of the streams, I would have to specify settings in the output set up in the plugin to worsen the YouTube settings. To wit, Twitch basically says, like the Ten Commandments of Streaming (should I channel Mel Brooks here?), "No other parallel stream shall be of better quality than that on me."

When it comes to chat, the other big proviso you need to observe while multistreaming, that's not something for this particular thread. That's best discussed elsewhere. ;3

P.S. For the record, I'm using Sorayuki's release, which I have had zero problems with using here.

That doesn't answer the question of OutputB taking\sharing session from OutputA without creating additional pressure on GPU. My idea is to, somehow, start multi-stream without starting the main obs output. (In my case it is twitch, but sometimes i play games like GTA2 which doesn't get any attention at Twitch, but alot of attention on Youtube and other platforms)

But, if OutputB just copies OutputA's setting and creating it's own encoder session - thats bad.
One way to deal with that problem which 100% works - Another OBS Profile without Twitch.

Sadly, this Plugin doesn't have "Take from OBS recorder" option. With this option present, there will be no need to start main Output. After all, recorder does same thing as main obs output, creating the encoder session which it shares to\from main output.

P.s. as far as i can see, it should create single Encoder session if OutputA takes from OutputB. because Changing bitrate setting in OutputB changes OutputA's too. But i need confirmation from experienced users :D

 

[rockbottom]

The main OBS streaming output must be started.

I don't use the "Share With" feature but in my limited testing with it, there was no additional encoding session required. I did not test "Get From OBS" being used & "Shared With" other multi-outs. Test it yourself & look at your OBS log for the answer you seek.

This is wrong information. it's in the C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins. Took me forever to find it after multiple reinstall of OBS and it still showing up.

Please accept my sincerest and humblest apologies for not providing correct information. We are all human and end up making mistakes periodically.

I have just corrected it so it will not trip anyone else up.

OBS 29.0.0 with multiple RTMP plugin rarely streams to YouTube. It works once, then I often need to restart or re-enter info. Could YouTube Vanced be the problem? Any fix?

omg thank you so much!

Anyone having issues with this plugin not connecting to Rumble?

The "Multiple RTMP Outputs" plugin, released on May 17, 2020, is a valuable tool for streamers looking to broadcast to multiple platforms simultaneously. It simplifies the process of streaming to services like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch, all from a single source. This plugin is especially useful for content creators who want to reach wider audiences without needing multiple setups or additional software. It’s a great addition to any streaming toolkit.
