OBS Studio · browser source + RTMP

Your AI creator, inside OBS Studio

TwinTone renders the creator, the chat reading, and the product knowledge. OBS gives you the scene, the overlays, and the destination. Add TwinTone as a browser source and the rest of your production stack stays exactly where it is.

First question: do you actually need OBS?

Most people do not
For YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, TwinTone connects over OAuth and delivers the stream itself. No software to install, nothing running on your machine, nothing to babysit at 3am.
Use OBS when you want control
Your own overlays and lower-thirds, a second camera, a human co-host cutting in, screen shares, or a graphics package your brand team already built.
Use OBS when there is no OAuth connect
Amazon Live, Twitch, Kick, or any bespoke RTMP destination. OBS is the universal adapter for anything TwinTone does not connect to natively.
How TwinTone gets into OBS
Through your public stream embed, added as a browser source. It is a live viewer of your own stream, so what OBS shows is what your audience would see.

How it works

Three moves from signup to a stream that sells.

1

Start your TwinTone stream

Launch the stream in TwinTone and make sure it is public rather than private — private streams are never embeddable.

2

Add it to your scene

In OBS, add a Browser Source pointed at your TwinTone embed URL, size it to your canvas, and build your scene around it.

3

Stream wherever you like

Point OBS at any destination: a native service preset, or Service: Custom with your own RTMP URL and stream key.

Step by step

Your route to going live

Pick a path, then follow it top to bottom. Nothing skipped, nothing assumed.

1
Launch your stream in TwinTone and confirm it is public. Private streams cannot be embedded, by design.
2
Copy your embed URL from the TwinTone dashboard.
3
In OBS, click + → Browser in the Sources panel, paste the URL, and set the width and height to match your canvas (1920 × 1080 for landscape, 1080 × 1920 for vertical).
4
Tick Control audio via OBS so the creator's voice runs through your audio mixer alongside your music and stingers.
5
Build the rest of the scene around it — overlays, product cards, a chat widget, your logo.

The browser source is a live viewer of your own stream, so latency and quality match what your audience sees.

1
Get the destination's server URL and stream key: YouTube Studio → Create → Go Live → Stream; Facebook Live Producer → Streaming software; TikTok LIVE Center; or the Amazon Live Creator app's External camera option.
2
In OBS, open Settings → Stream. Pick the built-in service if there is one, otherwise choose Service: Custom.
3
Paste the server URL and stream key, then set your encoder to match the destination's guidance — H.264 video, AAC audio, and a 2-second keyframe interval cover most platforms.
4
Hit Start Streaming, then confirm the stream health indicator on the destination platform.

Keys are credentials. Regenerate any key that has been shared, screenshotted, or pasted into a chat.

OBS Studio FAQ

Do I need OBS to use TwinTone?

No. For YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok you connect the channel over OAuth and TwinTone delivers the stream itself. OBS is for teams who want their own overlays, extra sources, a human co-host, or a destination we do not connect to natively.

How do I add TwinTone to an OBS scene?

As a Browser Source pointed at your public stream embed URL. Set the width and height to match your canvas, and tick Control audio via OBS so the creator's voice routes through your mixer.

Why is my browser source blank?

The most common cause is that the stream is private — private streams are never embeddable, by design. Make the stream public and confirm it is actually live rather than still preparing.

Can I put my own overlays over the AI creator?

Yes, that is the main reason to use OBS. The browser source is just another layer in the scene, so overlays, lower-thirds, price cards, and chat widgets all sit on top as normal.

Can I mix a human co-host with the AI creator?

Yes. Add your camera as a second source in the same scene. The AI creator keeps reading chat and presenting products while your host cuts in.

Which destinations can I reach through OBS?

Anything that accepts RTMP: YouTube, Facebook, Instagram via Live Producer, TikTok via LIVE Center, Amazon Live via the Creator app, Twitch, Kick, or your own media server. Route B covers where each key comes from.

Bring your AI creator into the scene you already built.

Start a stream, copy the embed URL, and drop it into OBS.
