Streamer Journey

By CYLim

November 24, 2020

Since Movement Control Order (MCO) impose in Malaysia due to Covid-19, I have start my journey to become streamer. Most specifically, game streamer.

I love video games ever since I was a child and I don’t want to just play game. I want to contribute to the gaming community and maybe socialize with the world while playing the game.

I believe that most of the world have access to Facebook (FB) Gaming and have personal FB account. Next, create a FB page with the category “Gaming Video Creator”.

1st step is complete. Next is streaming setup. There is a lot of streaming software out there. However, I only use this 2 which is Streamlab OBS and Omlet Arcade. Both pretty straightforward to stream your game in your FB page.

I will start off with Omlet Arcade. This is mobile application which stream directly from your phone. It does have desktop streaming but I mostly use it in my phone instead.

All-in-one live streaming software, Streamlab OBS (SLOBS). This is a Windows Desktop application and I not that familiar with mobile application. SLOBS contains quite a lot of widget and scenes to make your livestream a bit interesting. It’s a bit difficult to setup but once you get used to it, you would love this.

I myself sometime would love to use SLOBS Desktop to stream my mobile game. So, I need to cast and mirror my mobile display to desktop. I introduce you The Universal Mirroring Receiver, AirServer Basically, you could use any mobile devices and wirelessly mirror display over to my PC (AirPlay + Google Cast + Miracast). However, this come with 30-day trial and consumer license cost USD19.99 for 1 activation. There is a lot of free mirror display software out there but I personally not a fan of mirror display using wired connection.

Up until now, I believe all set for your first stream. Do leave comment below if you have any question.

FYI, below is my page Insight for from October 27th until November 23rd. Basically, my post reach more than 3000 peoples and at this point of time not that much. I hope that in the future, it can reach much further and let us grow the gaming community.
