How To Add Sources To OBS:

On the left we have Scenes, as I said, you'll make scenes for different purposes, for example, you'll make a game scene, so we right-click, rename the Game scene. Now I might be setting up a gaming scene, but I’ll cover everything you need to know to build any scene you want.

In the middle we have Sources, sources are all of your media that are in the Scene you have selected. Right now it is empty, but if we click this plus sign we can add sources such as a game capture, which you'll need in your Gaming Scene, this lets you capture your game and display it in OBS.

Anything you want to add, you'll do it with this plus sign, that could be video graphics, or it could be still images, or it could be any of these dozens of widgets you’ll add with browser sources.

Lets start with the webcam, lets click the plus, click add Video Capture Device, we will select our webcam, and then resize it down by clicking the corner, and dragging.

Now the Source List isn't a random order, it is actually layered, imagine the bottom layer is behind everything else, so if I drag my webcam below the game capture, it is hidden, if you can’t see a source, its worth confirming its at the right place of the list.

Now I want to add my support bars that the name of my latest follower will appear in, so I will click the + and I can either click Image if my support bar graphic isn't animated, aka its a still image, or I can click Media source if it is an animation or video.

How To Install Twitch Alerts Into OBS

To install an alerts into OBS, you will need to complete the following:

Step 1: From within OBS, you will need to click the + button and add a browser source.

Step 2: Login to Twitch, and go to the Twitch dashboard, and then select alerts.

Step 3: Make a new alert box, and copy the browser source of the alerts in the bottom right.

Step 4: Paste the browser source url into OBS, and then sent a Test alert from the Alerts dashboard to confirm it's working.

How to setup Stinger Transitions in OBS

Let’s add some polish to our transitions between scenes. So let’s quickly add an animation to this transition.

So head to the Scene Transition section, click the + button, change it to Stinger, and now you’ll want to find the stinger, remember every graphic in todays video is downloadable in the Stream scheme discord, import your video file, you need to use a webm video stinger, select frame, transition point 30 is what fits the animation I am using, but you can adjust when the transition point, moving it further and back until it fits yours, hit done.

Now select the new stinger as your default with this circle, hit done, and now click between your two scenes.

Ta-dah, you’ve got a transition!

The style of this video is similar to Alpha Gaming and Gaming Careers in parts. A large influence on this series has come from content creators like Wild4games and The Video Nerd.
