How to live stream with QuickTime Broadcaster on a Mac with DVI2USB 3.0. If you need to capture and broadcast a stream from a VGA, DVI or HDMI™ (non HDCP) video source using a Mac OS X machine, QuickTime Broadcaster is an easy to use and free software utility that allows you to do just that. All Epiphan Systems' video grabbers support this software as well as all other software packages. Live streaming on Mac OS X 8 years, 10 months ago #2746. HDL; Recently I made a thread here asking about capture devices for streaming. Stream technology is getting better, and so are people's computers and Internet connections, making it more and more feasible.
'After trying several live streaming solutions, Livestream was clearly the best option for us. The simplicity of the Mac OS X Producer app allows our volunteers to run our stream with minimal training. We believe our plan is an exceptional value and offers just the right options.
I've come across an interesting situation. I recently borrowed a laptop for work purposes, but decided to try out a Windows-specific game that I've always wanted to play - GoldenEye: Source. ;) It works beautifully and I thought about streaming it on Twitch, but the laptop is old'ish and not reliable for streaming.
This brings me to my Mac, which is perfectly capable of streaming without any hiccups. Would there be any way at all to pick up the PC source on OBS for Mac? So far, I've tried:
1) HDMI connection from PC to Minidisplay Port on Mac (no connection there).
2) HDMI connection from PC to Elgato IN with USB connection to Mac (Elgato picks up the screen, but there is no game audio).
3) HDMI connection from PC to Elgato IN with UBS connection to Mac AND HDMI out to TV (once again, no audio pick up).
4) HDMI connection from PC to TV, but I'm then stranded in terms of getting it back to Mac (works great on TV with audio as well).
I know that this might be uncharted territory (or maybe not!). In any case, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated in terms of what the best setup (if any) exists for these two systems to exist and help one another out with the PC being the gaming computer and Mac being the streaming computer.
Thanks in advance!
