OBS Studio – We Finally Switched

OBS Studio is the gold standard for streaming on Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook live. Therefore, that is precisely why we made the switch to OBS Studio for our game streaming. Twitch Studio was a great way to start our streaming journey, but we outgrew the system fairly quickly and there are definitely some disadvantages of using Twitch Studio over OBS Studio.

What's wrong with Twitch Studio?

As an application, Twitch Studio is great! It’s very easy to use and for someone who has never streamed video before, it has a very low learning curve and using a tool like Canva, you can easily make great looking graphics that can rival the look of a professional streamer despite the fact you may not be a professional. The issue is that if you plan on expanding to other streaming platforms beyond Twitch, you’ll need to pick a different application to use.

A tool like Restream.io will simplify the process of streaming to multiple platforms at the same time. A free plan will allow a user to connect to Twitch, YouTube, and many others, however, if you want to stream to your Facebook Fan Page or Group, you will need a premium plan. Today we’re focusing on the screens of OBS and we’ll dig into the functionality at a later date.
