Question Best lightweight setup for local sports scoreboards without heavy OBS plugins or cloud subscriptions?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Setting up a broadcast PC for community/amateur sports (weekend local games like baseball, cricket, and soccer).

We want clean, dynamic score overlays and lower thirds, but I really want to avoid heavy internal OBS plugins that break on major updates or risk crashing the stream. Also, cloud graphics engines (like Singular) are out of budget for a small local league, plus we don't always have reliable field internet to depend on cloud assets.

For those streaming local club matches, are you running dedicated external controller apps over localhost/browser source, or is there a standard lightweight workflow everyone uses to avoid manual Photoshop image swapping?

Would love to hear what your current matchday production setup looks like.

Help AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT

2 Upvotes

Hello!

I’ve streamed with Radeon/Ryzen since 2020, and never had issues with the quality on OBS. I decided to upgrade and once I got this 9060, my compression/bitrate tanked. It’s grainy when I move, (6000 bitrate-CBR) to Kick. If I record in CQP it’s better, but still not as good as my six year old gaming laptop. Anybody else ever have this issue?

-Thanks.

Help Video quality

2 Upvotes

Hey guys I need help. I use source record to record my videos so that I can get my face and gameplay. When I end the recording and play the video with the gameplay it looks great. However whenever I export it on davinci resolve and post it on YouTube to see how it comes out, the recording takes a dip in quality. I have a good PC so I know that’s not the issue. I have been running test after test for the past few days and still nothing works. I really want to avoid using the canvas trick on obs since it will make huge files. Has anyone struggled with this, and if you have can you please help me.

Guide Can someone give me some advice, please?

I create content for Minecraft. I don't know much about settings, though I have some basic understanding. I'm having an issue with FPS—for example, if I get 180 FPS in Minecraft and use a 144Hz monitor, OBS Studio drastically reduces the video smoothness.

​If you have any other tips not related to OBS Studio's smoothness, I’d be more than happy to hear them too!

​Thanks for your time!

Question Is there a way to have the same input source (my microphone) in two different VoiceMeeter Potato "lanes"?

3 Upvotes

I am a retro inspired streamer and because of that I want my mic to match! I've made a 'jank mic' setting lane (i do not know what they are actually called, apologizes), and a lane of my standard audio settings for a cleaner mic. Issue is I want to output my jank mic only to my stream, and my clean mic to my discord so they can most definitely hear me (tbf my jank mic sounds like a drive through, but it could still be a little difficult for my friends with auditory processing issues. I also dont want to sound like I'm in a drive through speaker 24/7 on discord)

Apologizes if this has been asked before, but the only post I found about it used another external software (VB Wires) which I would rather not have to install a third software if needed. Though, if it's the only way, I'll relent to such. I just stream on a gaming laptop is all, so limiting the amount of shit open is very important.

(PS: does anyone know if AltStream saves VODs? I'm gonna be doing a test stream there tomorrow with Deadlock and don't want to lose my streak of almost every video of mine being on my VODs channel. I couldn't find any info and they somehow don't appear to have a subreddit? I am blind so I might've just missed it. I'll likely have the stream additionally recording if I don't get a reply, which Deadlock runs well on my system. It should be finnneeeee.)
