Hello,
I have downloaded and started to use the demo version. I am wondering if I could use this software for a live feed to facebook? Through using a stream key Also is it possible to use audio from a usb device (DJ equipment).
I have spent a little amount searching through the forum and have watched the introductory videos on youtube, but I am still to find the answers I am looking for.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Philip Foster

Hey Philip,
Get NDI Tools from NewTek: https://ndi.tv/tools/#download-tools
Get NDI Magic plugins via: https://magicmusicvisuals.com/resources
Get OBS
Get NDI for OBS: https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases/tag/4.7.1
Set up NDI as a source in OBS and enter your stream key for wherever you want to stream to.
Output to NDI directly from Magic
It works a charm but actual streaming wasn't too successful for me - early days.

Possibly an even easier method is https://github.com/Off-World-Live/obs-s ... rce-plugin. Haven’t tried it tho.

Eric, the method you mentioned works perfectly for me! The only thing I struggled with was not realizing I had to enable Spout output in the Magic file. Window>Magic window options>Check Spout output. Do the same thing for the "use Spout v2" option. It saved me so much trouble! Thank you!

Hello my Magic Family !
I don't want to open a new topic, so I'll ask here.
I wasn't able to find in the forum, if there are steps to import OBS stream into Magic ?
My goal is that one musician will stream his video to me (via OBS), then I'll capture it in Magic and from there I will stream with my own OBS on his FB page . Am I crazy to think this can happen ?
I've found out how to stream from OBS to FB:
https://www.wikihow.tech/Live-Stream-Yo ... ebook-Live
My only missing step is how to import the OBS stream into Magic ?
I have a backup plan, where I will use ManyCam to capture the incoming stream and import it into Magic as a webcam, but I hope to find an easier solution.
Thank you for your time guys!!!

Re: New User
As discussed above, your options for bringing any other app directly into Magic (without an intermediate app) are Spout/Syphon or NDI. I don't know if OBS can output either of those formats. You would need to ask them I guess. Or maybe someone else here knows.
Re: New User
In OBS. Tools -> NDI Output -> check Main.
