Been playing VR for a year now. You, Naysy, and LSToast have all been helpful with your tutorials on how to setup a MR studio. Since we move every few months for work. I had to make a mobile setup. Your tutorial is extremely useful. Thank you for all the hard work.
Awesome tutorial! The only reason I’m addicted to beat saber is from watching your videos. I did have to figure the liv obs without your tutorial but I used your hardware list. Thank you for this addiction and thank you for the videos
I rent so your tutorial was right on the nose for what I need for setup since I will have to use my bedroom and likely be setting up and taking down each time I use it. Thank you so much!
I've been playing VR since 2016 with Google Cardboard and all the app options for that, then it took me a year to pay off my VIVE after I bought it with credit which I still use, now I'm only just NOW hearing about LIV from you after wondering how people put themselves in VR videos and change the POV for YEARS, lol
FOR THE LONGEST TIME I WANTED A TUTORIAL THAT WAS EASY FOR THIS SETUP GREAT JOB RACHEL! I originally thought it would be alot harder to set up but you made it look a whole loi easier to set vr up! Thank you! BTW I have a Ryzen 5 2600 paired with a GTX 1050 Ti 4GB and 32 Gigs of RAM and the occulus rift and HTC VIVE checker said "BEAT SABER COMPATIBLE" so I know i just have to purchase a few things to get my setup going thanks to your tutorial!
Wow. This was a great video. Thank you for breaking it down and showing not only where to go to get this, how to set it up but even showing the gear you use! Now if I can only find some motivation to set this up, get better at Beat Saber and give it a shot! lol! Leaving a like! Thank you so much for this how-to guide!
I went as far as buying a murphy bed so I can have extra space for VR and start doing some mixed reality. To hang my green screen, which is the same one you got, I got a curtain rail that mounts to the ceiling. I also screwed down some metal slats on the floor and taped magnets on the bottom of my green screen so that it's nice and straight. Then I bought some floor mats. I also went straight for the Logitech Brio webcam. I also got a ring light for it. Also got a pair of cheap Neewer panel lights. So whenever I want to record a mixed reality video, I just pull the curtain over and make sure all the magnets on the bottom are in place, lay the mats down, turn the lights on, then check LIV and make sure there's no gaps between the green screen play space and what I'm trying to mask out. I also made a shield to go over my overhead light to reflect some of it back on the green screen and to block any light from blinding the camera. The shield is made of cardboard and has aluminum tape on one side. My murphy bed was about $1,500 and is definitely worth it. Doesn't come with a mattress, but was able to use my existing mattress. It's definitely more comfortable with the slatted support system rather than having a box spring.
Thanks for showing how to do it with OBS! All the other tutorials seem to just completely skip the part where they explain how to actually make a video file from it.
You inspired me to get a green screen on Amazon and My PC is an i5 10400 which is close to your CPU... I have two ring lights one on my desk shining at me and one behind my desk in behind the green screen... My camera is similar to yours and it also records and streams in 1080p60 too and my GPU is a GTX 1050 Ti OC SRTIX from ASUS.. I am not getting a VR headset but I intend to use my green screen pinned to my ceiling it's a 6x9FT one and it's going to do the trick for me. I have win11 22H2 on my system and 32 gigs of DDR4 RAM as well to run my recordings and streams on my many screens. Thanks for the setup tutorial on this.. it's helping me make my setup like yours and it's going to be bloody awesome once the Green Screen arrives tomorrow afternoon! Thanks Rachel for your help! Really helps out alot!
Great, straight forward, sufficiently detailed (I think...haven't set it up yet) so thanks! Good presentation, good pacing, good audio. Such a relief after watching so many meandering incomprehensible tutorials with audio you can't hear clearly.
Very informative video! I've been wondering exactly how you were doing this, and while I had most of it, you certainly taught me the finer details I was missing. Greatly appreciate the breakdown, especially the speed and detail you used - spot on. Side note, I've been giving myself a deep dive on OBS, streaming, etc, before I begin my journey, and I believe you can double your audio bit rate to 320 as of a few months ago, with no penalty on Twitch / elsewhere. Maybe do a quick Google search, but it should greatly increase your audio quality, with a very minimal impact to file size, bandwidth, etc. Twitch now allows that additional audio on top of the 6k, so don't worry about limits. If you do end up using this, let me know, would love to hear the difference between two videos from someone I follow!
whoa your light boxes are massive, I only use some LED strips and a tiny lamp and it works great. Use 5730 strips, they're 50w and 6000k so they're extremely bright and only $10 for 5m, it would save so much space. You can also use a custom static mask so you only need to crop out the camera instead of the whole side.
@@rangerkayla8824 I have quite a big area for my mixed reality studio but my lighting was dirt cheap and it still looks great. For photography however your LEDs should be high CRI.
Helped a lot, thank you very much, complete tutorial! My only question: Can I change the angle/rotation of the game in this mixed camera? How to make it straighter, more to the side, more from above?
This is perfect. I like Atom Bomb’s instructions but they are just too short on detail. their webpage has way different looking pictures than their videos do. Ugh. Confusing. I screamed SO many times trying to calibrate… running to the LIV discord, reset blah blah blah… Your video takes the time and shows THE thing about calibrating I’ve been asking LIV to show better for two years now: to show people better HTF you are supposed to hold your hands and your BODY in relative orientation to the CAMERA *while* we place and click little red X ❌ lol. For example you show that we DO have to torque the bejeezuh out of our wrists to get behind that last red ❌ . FR. I’ve had controllers set up in reverse cuz I couldn’t visualize this, so THANKS!!! 🎉
That was very nicely done and well explained and on a low budget except perhaps for the computer). I like your idea to use the green floor mats instead of extending the greenscreen which I had wondered about as well with shoes. Someone on here mentioned that you used chroma key controllers to eliminate the controllers in the shots and have swords in your hand...very nice touch. I do differ with another poster who said he was convinced that one must go hi-end studio to achieve great results because you nailed it..looked great. One last thing ...you fit in perfectly in the fight scenes but somehow I'd like to see your skin tone or outfit match the environment more...less looking like a regular person... and more like one of their world adversaries...although I'm sure you have the Laura Croft fan club watching and cheering for you on your channel. haa
are you able to add the recording from the game with your green screen recording after the fact or do they need to be done all at one time? also great video thanks.
This is awesome. I noticed your headset is plugged in or has a cable running from it. Would the oculus quest 2 work the same way? I don’t have cables to plug it in.
Excelent video! Just I have one doubt please , How do you link the games in Liv , for example Beat saber, I already purchase in my oculus and I already link steam vr with oculus, but the game didt appear in the capture section of Liv , how you do that please :D
Also could I get some clarification on my current understanding: Liv: tracks the vr motion and records my motion OBS: records my gameplay and also stitches my motion from Liv into one video that I will output?
Very good video. I was wondering how you do multiple camera angles. Do you use more than one camera at the same time, or do you record a second video from the other camera angle and then piece the videos together?
Hi been watching you forever. I tried an Oculus 1 tethered but gave up because of too many reboots. It is years later and I have an Index now, so I will try again. I will send you link. I don't have the moves however, so not too great. Do you practice and choreograph at all? Do you do test videos before the final, and how many in an example? Do you workout specifically for the videos?
How do you change the angle of the camera slightly off center so you can see the Beat Saber blocks coming down the lane? (Please refer to 12:05 in your video) Right now I have my back perfectly in line with the camera so you don't see the blocks coming towards me. Would I have to physically move my camera off to the side some?
I'm struggling so much with the flooring! The link for flooring doesn't seem to make green anymore, so i bought some from wesellmats but they're quite dark and textured, so my chroma key isn't working very well. Before I got these I was using gorilla glue rug pad gripper underneath my green screen and it worked alright, but only barefoot. If I wore shoes the floor would get all kinds of messed up and I play pretty active games. Any tips would be so helpful!
Hi I’m trying to do this and my understanding is that I need to buy the games in steam vr right? I have an oculus quest 2 and have bought games on there already but I’d actually need to buy them again on steam?
Hmm. Do you know if there is a solution for this if playing from the quest version of the game? I can't connect to steam while in the quest app environment and can't simultaneously use beat saber and virtual desktop.
So when the sabers move behind you and become obscured, and visible over the top of you when swung behind... is this something LIV works out on its own, or does that have to be configured? :)
Wow. Great tutorial. I am a Twitch streamer who recently got an Oculus quest 2. I haven't tried what you said in this yet as I'm at work, but you made it very simple and I look forward to trying it out. One question, I'm having issues with Steam VR finding my VR set with an official Oculus link cable to my pc. Any suggestions? Thank you!!!! Amazing job. Best I've seen so far!!!!

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
I really have to say... that is the best tutorial I‘ve seen in a long time! Thank you
This is a good tutorial because it doesn't assume you already have a saloon and/or the rest of neccesary commodities every other streamer have.
I rent so your tutorial was right on the nose for what I need for setup since I will have to use my bedroom and likely be setting up and taking down each time I use it. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. It helped me a lot. I was able to start mixed reality by watching this video.
Glad it helped!
Otter Knowledge Bomb 🧨
I am so glad you made this, out getting a camera in a minute!

Best tutorial on this subject, well explained and easy yo follow, just what I was looking for.
Thank you.
so amazing! very detailed. thanks so much, cant wait to try it all out!!!!
Ha ha! This vid helped me finally get LIV setup properly! Thanks!
Glad it helped!
One of the best tutorial I've seen. Thank you very much!
great tutorial, i use quest 2, so awesome, thanks.
Can you make an updated tuturial soon?
Thank you for the very complete tutorial! Only one part is missing, where did you obtain those skills? =P
Thank you so much for your help with setting this up.
Thank you!!! This video was so helpful!
Good tutorial, it was interesting to watch!
comprehensive guide thank you
I've got nothing, so I'll just leave a random comment for the Al Gore Rhythm.
Those tiles are pretty expensive. Awesome video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for posting ! Need to learn this !
Super big thanks!
Thank you for this video! Very easy to digest and follow. Will be referencing during my set up process!
Thaaaank you sooo much. worked amazingly for me :D thank you soooooo much!!!! love goes out to you!
Thank you so much for this!
OMG so helpful!! I can't wait to get this all set up!!!

Ive been trying to find some one to show us how to do this thank you so much for taken the time out to make this video
I spent my weekend trying to set up for mixed reality with LIV. Not the best results but it was fun trying
Thanks a lot for this helpful tutorial! I love your channel 🙏
Such a good and simple tutorial! Thank you
02:50 "I hope you don't need to use a massive green scre..... ahh balls."
Excellent explanation and gear breakdown, thank you!
Best tutorial

@@rangerkayla8824 5730 for me but for photography you want something with a high CRI (95+) for accurate colours.
There are 3 point lighting setups for $100. Otter said both were $65. Not a problem. They setup and tear down easy and last too.
Awesome and thank you for the details
Very Good Tutorial!
Awesome vid. Always wanted to know your setup!
Awesome. Thank you
I appreciate you so much... Thank you
TOTORO!!!
Great video, likely never use it but super interesting as to how your videos are made.
Helped a lot, thank you very much, complete tutorial! My only question: Can I change the angle/rotation of the game in this mixed camera? How to make it straighter, more to the side, more from above?
Did you ever figure this out?
I would look funny on camera, I was just curious how you were doing it, I just play for fun and a workout.
Nice video. Thank you. Would be interesting to see if doing this with a Quest works the same way.
Sheesh! A lot going on here. Definitely gonna be a weekend project ... hopefully. lol.
Great tutorial!
In your newer videos you have a moving camera. How did you do that?
This is perfect. I like Atom Bomb’s instructions but they are just too short on detail. their webpage has way different looking pictures than their videos do. Ugh. Confusing.

Beautiful but I don't know if you answer this for me, how can one use this technology In project management?
Hi, have you gotten any LED or fluorescent lights yet? Much cooler...thanks for the video, your working hard!
Thx
Does this work with Quest 2? Does it require running the game through Steam VR?
are you able to add the recording from the game with your green screen recording after the fact or do they need to be done all at one time? also great video thanks.
This is awesome. I noticed your headset is plugged in or has a cable running from it. Would the oculus quest 2 work the same way? I don’t have cables to plug it in.
Have you tried Zombies Noir mixed reality game yet?

Just, your beat saber song comes from your pc or helmet?
Very good video. I was wondering how you do multiple camera angles. Do you use more than one camera at the same time, or do you record a second video from the other camera angle and then piece the videos together?
The latter- for multiple angles I film each angle separately

i feel like you might have skipped over showing how to use the camera mod to get the 3rd person view of beatsaber?
What is that game at 12:18 ?
Great tutorial btw! Class content 👌🏻
How do you change the angle of the camera slightly off center so you can see the Beat Saber blocks coming down the lane? (Please refer to 12:05 in your video) Right now I have my back perfectly in line with the camera so you don't see the blocks coming towards me.

What about the kinect. Is it worth it versus the logitech?
Do you need to run it on PC vr
when u were playing did you face your greenscreen and was the camera placed behind you?

Hiii, which VR are you using with this mixed reality?
Hmm. Do you know if there is a solution for this if playing from the quest version of the game? I can't connect to steam while in the quest app environment and can't simultaneously use beat saber and virtual desktop.
Is it possible, or what do I need to do, to just record the head set view? I can’t find the options/selections.
Cam you do 2 cameras split screen
I wanna do this so bad!
Step 1: have money for equipment.
Well I’m out…for now…
Soon you can do this with just a Quest 1/2 and a phone :)
@@liv 😱😱😱
Please a software also compatible with Mac?
So when the sabers move behind you and become obscured, and visible over the top of you when swung behind... is this something LIV works out on its own, or does that have to be configured? :)

Thank you!!!! Amazing job. Best I've seen so far!!!!
if i may ask where do you source your songs? thx
btw love your videos
ps cold you make a tutorial for some moves etc
Do you think you'll do a video using the new video features in the v29 update of the Quest 2? I think the camera (iPhone) can move during filming :)
If they ever make it work with Android phones I will (I don't have an iPhone)
I can use the oculus quest 2 without connecting them to the PC?
Mines constantly freezing up and I have no idea why. Running a ryzen 9, 32gb of ram and a 3070 RTX 😅
