It's called "Client" because it's the client side of the application from a game development standpoint. As part of the client-server relationship, your game is the client.
ya but next to every game has this sort of system, client to server communication, but not every studio chooses to name the "player side application" client, I think this is what he questioned
one thing he doesnt mention about the automatic scene switcher for it to work properly, is the game settings itself has to be fullscreen and not borderless fullscreen. If you are running full screen borderless you have to click on the lanucher or loading screen itself for the scene to switch. So if you get up to go to the bathroom when champ select is over. the launcher will still be visible to your viewers until you click on the in game client itself and vice versa. I tried to make this clear but i honestly dont know how to explain it any better hopefully people understand this hahaha
bro this is exactly whaty i was looking for and the exact game as well, man thank you so much for this, keep up the great work helping us noobs setup our streams!!
@ Gaming Careers it actually makes perfect sense. You playing from home, on the game client, connect to the game server when you join a match. *Client 2* (in a network) a desktop computer or workstation that is capable of obtaining information and applications from a server. Be better to use lobby and match, or lobby and game
@@exSkev Pretty sure going fullscreen-windowed at your monitor's full resolution would fix this edit: nevermind that didn't work. You find the solution?
Easily the best channel to practice my hobby... I like to pause and play the video without listening to the content, and let the hilarious freeze frames tell the story :-)
Wow, this is an amazing feature I didn't even realize existed in OBS. Great video, as always, man. I can't wait to give this a shot this weekend. The haircut looks great!
I saw you mentioning to Pete on Discord that you would come here to comment about his hair, I immediately came here to check if you really did. Not disappointed.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH. I first started with the advanced scene switcher plugin but that didn´t work fine. Ironically I do stream League of Legends :D so this was just the perfect tutorial to fix this little issue I had. Thank you a billion times bro.
The game is called client, and it makes a lot of sense. The game sends information to a server about your movement, and receives information from the server about the other players movements ( and other stuff of course), hence: the client.
Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't even know about layering, and I was confused as to why it kept changing scenes when I tabbed out of League so I used your method and it works wonders. Much thanks
This might sound dumb but if you are having problems where you cant exit the actual game for some reason and if you have windows press the task view and you'll be able to use other applications even thought the game is open. this is a way that i found around the problem.
Terminology about client in network means usually situation of client/server, the game program is the client program which connects the game server. I'm not sure if I understood what is the problem with this client-thing, it should be just like it is to my understanding. Also web browser is a client program, which contacts web servers. And so on.
They're actually named correctly. Software connecting to a server (relative to that software) is a client, even if both the client and server software are on the same machine. Look up the "client-server model" on Wikipedia.
We have a thing we would like to do in our org in the game star citizen. Lets say we all broadcast on our local computers with OBS, with game sound and microphone sound. Can you then send all signals to a server running obs studio? And only auto focus the view on the one talking? Like a live RedTeam standing by star wars stream
the problem i'm having, is that i have a static 'start/finish' scene, i have a scene for 'loading which shows the loading screen, and then a game scene which shows in game. and seperate overlays for each, obs is only detecting the loading screen as the "tm' scene how do i switch between the 3?
Streamlabs OBS is a seperate/unique fork from OBS, it's a different application that cuts/adds features as they see fit. I wouldn't recommend using it unless you want a pretty vanilla/limited/albeit more user-friendly (at times) experience for your stream.
I'm having a problem now where if I alt-tab from my game, it switches automatically back to the client, even while the game is running. Is there any way to keep the game as the top display even when I'm alt-tabbed?
Its a couple years too late, but set your game to Windowed or Borderless Windowed. Works for me. Once I'm done editing everything, I just switch it back to windowed.
The "client" verbiage in this video is backward. The game _is_ the "client". It's a game client, which connects to the game server. What you're calling the client is more appropriately called a "launcher". It's not a game. It's not sending and receiving gameplay data packets to and from a server. It's used for launching a game client. Hence "launcher". It's called "LeagueClientUx.exe" because it is a wrapper for the game client, setting up all the server connections, options, and everything else, which affects the user experience, or UX. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_client Otherwise, great tutorial! I did not know this functionality existed.
This makes a lot more sense! Thanks for the explanation. Weirdly Riot often refers to the launcher as the 'client' with them detailing 'client updates' and 'restart your client' etc.
Hi, I've been streaming for two days now, and discovered you guys this evening. Thanks for being a great resource as I'm just getting started! After watching this, I wonder - is there a way to have obs switch automatically from the "Starting Soon" scene (countdown created with Snaz) when the timer reaches 0? Thanks again for the help!
Hey there, you've really been a big help. Iv'e been trying to do scene switching on Stream Labs OBS but its not working. I basically followed this video using the same game and imported all the settings to Stream Labs. It captures the client but wont switch to the game itself.
You can set the switch to occur every time if you only stream one game or window at a time and want automatic switching to a "holding" page. Pick an application that is running all the time you game (I use Team Speak) to use as your "default to" on game exit and set your hold page to whatever you want ;-) /commentspam
I have a game scene to capture ANY full screen app. and another to show an image when the game is minimized. but for this to work I have to add every single f* game to auto scene switcher. I was playing a new game today and forgot to add it to the scene switcher, then I record a vídeo with a single image on it, very nice! Is there a way to the switcher really AUTO switch if detect ANY full screen app? thanks
tried using this and I thought this auto scene switcher will switch scenes based on the scenes alone with customizable timers but it seems like it's not the case as the switching is source or application-linked based on what a scene has which only seems to work on single pc streaming setup. I wish it has a feature that you can set timers to a scene to switch automatically and not have to link the application or source you are running.. for example, if I have a 2 min intro scene with a 2 min countdown timer and i want it to automatically switch to my just chatting/pre game scene when the countdown ends instead of manually switching it which I don't think this switcher can do. of course, the usage is very much preferential and there might be a possible work around it. I'm not saying this isn't a good addon to obs but i think it needs some more added customizability or features.
@GamingCareers Does OBS have a "profile" or "saved settings" feature where if one is going to stream a game previously streamed one can select that "saved settings" for it to load all the settings you had for that game?
Hi..thx for the video. I am actually looking for an auto scene switch solution to randomly select a set of webcams scenes as I play guitar. I have 4 webcams I want to rotate through. You wouldn't know how to set that up would you?
Sir can you make guide video about how to connect gaming pc to streaming pc using elgato hd60pro and also connect mic for good and decent result much needed help
Is there a way to get this to not only change the scene based on which game I have open, but also change which game (category) I am currently streaming to in Twitch without manually switching? For example, if I close out of Rocket League it changes from my RL scene to my Just Chatting scene (and changes my category on Twitch from Rocket League to Just Chatting) then if I open another game; let's just say, Overwatch it changes my scene and Twitch category to Overwatch? And if possible to only change the category while actively streaming and not just if OBS is running. Also, defaulting back to a Twitch category for the game I primarily stream at the end of stream would be nice for raid shoutouts. I'm going to look into this myself after work today :) seems like it'd be useful!
can we do the auto scene switcher on streamlabs obs? @Gaming Careers. If not, how do you guys do to switch scene when playing league while streaming? manually?
Can you just enable automatic scene switcher and let it automatically play what's in the sources section for loaded media? I have multiple videos, i would like to have then automatically play the next one when its finished with the last one. and continue to rotate through the scenes automatically.
How can I add some kind of background picture to fill the black screen that shows up during the few seconds when the game is loading/ after the game is done when the client is loading?
I know this video is a bit old, but I thought I'd try to see if this worked regardless. It did.... except it sometimes freezes my entire pc when switching scene, for no apparent reason: Running a Ryzen 7 5800 with RTX 3070Ti graphics... shouldn't have a problem switching scenes.
Hello, how can I configure OBS to do the same as shown in the video but with a variety of games, not only the ones that have a client+game window but for other games as well??
It's called "Client" because it's the client side of the application from a game development standpoint. As part of the client-server relationship, your game is the client.
More specifically, there is a client/server relationship. The server is the one that all the clients access.
This. Thank you sir, it was annoying when he pointed it the second time. Multiplayer games have local clients and online servers
but why does it say client on both windows, in different parts of their name?
ya but next to every game has this sort of system, client to server communication, but not every studio chooses to name the "player side application" client, I think this is what he questioned
one thing he doesnt mention about the automatic scene switcher for it to work properly, is the game settings itself has to be fullscreen and not borderless fullscreen.

Your style of teaching is excellent. Very clear and concise explanations. Thanks!
I only have one problem when i alt tab it in game switchs to the client scene everytime, i only want to switch to the client when my game is closed.
yo anyone has a fix to this?
@@exSkev Pretty sure going fullscreen-windowed at your monitor's full resolution would fix this
edit: nevermind that didn't work. You find the solution?
@@DarthLeopard nah bro, unfortunately not. Has been a while since I streamed
dude you are a life savior you deserve millions of subs
Nice! Always finding new ways to improve my streams on this channel. 👍
Best video I’ve seen so far explains the process to stream league in OBS❤
10/10 ;---; i can''t believe i found this one year after streaming, so needed! Thank you!!

I remember seeing this in the menu drop down but I wasn't sure how to set it up! Thanks for the tutorial!
YOU.... are a GODSEND. your videos are so clear and to the point. A++++
Thanks. Can this be done with an Elgato Capture Card and a PS4 Game?
Very nice, I tried putting it as game capture for the 2 different apps (didn't work), but with window capture, it worked perfectly. Thank you!
i know you posted this almost a year ago but thank you it helped me a lot.
Thanks so much. Vid is very old but gold, works like a charm
Thank you sir!
Thank you for auto scene that helps a lot! I love your mission. Helping smaller youtubers
Bro calm down the name is GREAT, ITS PERFECT
I just started streaming and I love this channel. Thank you!
Perfect video what i searched
i keep them both in same scene and i have no problem so i don't need second :) and thanks this helped a lot
Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't even know about layering, and I was confused as to why it kept changing scenes when I tabbed out of League so I used your method and it works wonders. Much thanks
thank you very much for your videos,i learned much about twitch because of you :)
Great video, was looking for some plugin to do this, didn't realize it was built in. Thanks for the information.
whenever I try to change the "switch to" and "dont switch" BOTH my scenes apply that option..
have to say your vids are great, have been really useful when Ive been setting up obs and intro/outros.
This might sound dumb but if you are having problems where you cant exit the actual game for some reason and if you have windows press the task view and you'll be able to use other applications even thought the game is open. this is a way that i found around the problem.
I can see this feature being used quite a lot, now that people know about it.
Man your content is so good always answering my questions!

Always on point. Top quality tutorials. Thank you.
Can you take a look at some streamers setups and breakdown their scenes? It would be great if you could give us some ideas on some interesting scenes.
Love this so much, thank you!!!
thanks a lot, i'm a newbie and this will help a lot
Does anyone know if this is possible on (streamlabs obs)?
thanks bro
can this same process also be done with StreamLabs?
Yes
Exactly what i was looking for, thank you!!!
I have a problem where I minimize the LeagueClient(TM), the OBS capture of it freezes.
We have a thing we would like to do in our org in the game star citizen.
