Scott, you know what I like? You go into more depth about little things that I was asking that weren't even part of the presentation! Like adjusting the silent audio from the video "advanced audio properties". Very nice!
I appreciate that! I try my best to give you info that is important. Many times this info is not in the instructions. I have to discover it first hand. Best wishes.
🤯.You did it again! You teach. I watch. I learn. I do. We both end up looking amazing. Thanks Uncle V! (video technology explorer). All jokes aside, I've been wanting to do something like this for a while. The scroll function in obs is very limiting. Great tutorial sir.👏 I don't do anything in the way of lyrics, but this will go great with book narration. 👍
Great tip. I use Apple Keynote and the OBS Window Source for this purpose. The great thing about the Keynote method is that you can avoid using the presentation mode AND EVEN AVOID having to show the app full screen by resizing the apps window to the desktop's full vertical boundaries and shove the app offscreen to the right showing only the left thumbnail panel of your Keynote for selecting your slides.(of course if you have multiple monitors, then screen real estate isn't necessarily and issue.) These thumbnails only get so large due to the limit of the panel size, but if you add a crop to the Window Source in OBS you can use the cropped out portion of your slide to add text to show it's title/content in a much larger font. After that, I set the background to magenta, key that out in OBS, apply an OBS Slide or Swipe transition in and out to the Window Source, and you got yourself a pretty nifty LIVE EDITABLE Character Generator.
I use Google Slides and OBS for our ministry's livestream in a " similar" sort of way. It's not lyrics though. I setup Advanced Scene Switcher to switch to the appropriate scene depending on the Windows "window" I'm on. And for the two different Google Slides presentation that I do, I simply do the presentations at fullscreen and with one I do it at both full screen and in presenter view. Then in order to navigate when on these full screen windows, I simply press Alt+Tab and generally the last window is OBS anyways.
Hi Scott, I have a question, is OBS can save multiple videos thumbnail like propresenter? So that, no need multiple scenes must created for every video which want to show or play. Thank you very much.
Hi. I got the lure script to work for lyrics but when I change the lyrics on the preview screen the lyrics on the program screen do not change. How do I link the changes to both screens? Thanks. Paul
Not yet, possibly on black Friday. I can't tell you how excited I am about it. I'm getting a FA-06 Roland. It's a workstation synth. It's a dream machine dude. It does everything! th-cam.com/video/wqT0KNR9Pt4/w-d-xo.html
Hi Scott, how are you doing? I´m lookinng one of your videos in which you tell us a good metaphor about arrows and aims, could you please share it again? Thanks a lot (I haven't found it yet)
Hi dePocounTODO, your referring to the video marketing strategy videos that tanked and tanked hard. I was going to make more but the numbers are not there to justify it. The first one will lead to the second one. th-cam.com/video/tnUpjrfIdtA/w-d-xo.html
Hi Scott, loving the videos and I'm learning so much about OBS. I especially like the keys shown in your video (e.g. when you press Ctrl +Shift+F5 @9m50secs). How do you show the keystrokes in your videos? Is there a Plugin or a particular piece of software to perform this?
Hi Scott. Thanks for the video. I am a South African musician that can't change slides while I perform worship or covers, but I would still like to have the lyrics up on the screen for my viewers. I followed along with your video until I tried adding the Window Capture and can't see my Google slides window in the drop down when adding source. Is there a way I could just use static lyrics in Slides/Powerpoint and that way add all my songs in to one PP presentation and just change as the songs change (like a setlist)? Hope this made sense... Thanks for your amazing videos! I binge you all the time and learn so much!
Hey Chaz! The answer is YES and you question does make sense. I need clarity on one point. You mentioned that you wish to see the lyrics change as the song changes. How many lyrics are being shown on the screen at any give moment?. Are you looking to show all the lyrics, or just a few lines at a time. What comes to mind is that when you begin to play your music the lyrics change based upon TIME. Can you also reply and tell me why you "can't" currently change the slides? Is it because you playing the music ? I imagine that the issue at hand is that you can't worry about advancing the next set of lyrics because you actually playing the music is that the problem?
Hi @@ScottFichter! Firstly thank you for your swift response! And YES, Spot On - I have managed to add the ChromaKey Browser source filter and can import the lyrics via Google Slides to display on screen (Although I have to make sure I mute the slides source when making changes and leave the Browser window in a fixed position otherwise the crop displays other things on OBS). Using Amazing Grace as an example, I had to try fit all the song lyrics on each slide, because then I can change the slide for the next song, but I would have preferred to set some kind of timer to only display one verse/chorus at a time, that will automatically change as I keep playing the song (I understand that this might involve some practice to perfect of course), but it should provide a better viewer experience, than having the whole song crammed over the screen and my camera. I assume this has to be done within Google Slides to control the tempo? And finally, is there no way to use O365 powerpoint as a window capture and have OBS pull a local file as a source and update by clicking SAVE, or does it HAVE to be an online doc that keeps refreshing itself? Sorry for the long reply, but I am so grateful for any assistance from a legend like you!
Hello Scott. Can you use google slide to go back to certain slide or go out of order? Sometimes we may skip around to different verses in our services. If so, how can we do it? Thanks
@@ScottFichter Thank you. I have the slides working great (you are awesome). However the slides are very small and can’t read them. Am I still doing something wrong?
Scott have you tried PPT NDI? I use it in conjunction with OBS, no need to green screen since it by default will create transparency on the PPT and send the slides over NDI. Transition was added but it's wonky at best, I only use it for static text.
Really nice video, I feel like I learned while watching all the techniques you applied. :) I probably won't use this actual technique though because I don't want to have to have a browser window open that I'm screen capturing from. I think I'll just create a video in FCP with text and play that video in OBS. (I wish there were some OBS built-in tool or plugin to show a sequence of text with custom timing between each!)
nice video. thank you so much sir. my question is that what if i would like to jump to slide number 5 then jump again to slide number 2? how can i assign hotkey on google slides?
Hotkeys only control stuff within OBS. The text is within Google slides. You'd have to make the slides within OBS to make that happen. so what you ask it is absolutely possible.
Hey Scott, I appreciate your tutorials and have learned lots. I have come up on a problem and wonder if you know how to fix it. I am trying to get Microsoft Excel to show up in a window on OBS. All I get is a white screen. Have you come across this and is there a fix?
Robert, you're selecting "Window Capture" as a source right? Make sure Windows is up to date. This is also a solution Go to "Window Capture" -> "Properties" and change the "Capture Method" from "Automatic" to "Windows Graphics Capture"
Amazing... this has so any uses.. you taught me something else ... every-time I come to your channel..I learn something... fantastic

Such a simple and cool use-case of OBS and google slides!
Thank you my friend. I worked hard on this one.
This is epic! And you don’t need to stop at lyrics - this technique allows you to add images and other overlays too! Thank you
Soooo gooood Scott! Thanks so much!

GETSUM Alessio!
My experience as a church projectionist is that you don't want any transition. Just a quick cut between lyrics works best for the audience.
Hmm... yes good point. Thank you for this...
henyo. thanks for this
Any time!

Yes, this is an excellent way to approach this. It's more simple. I've tried it.
Good tips but I'm new to obs and am not getting it
I really enjpy watching and learning from you. I am wondering how to you avoid copyright issues doing this? Thanks!
You search for videos that are commercial free. Same thing for music as well.

Yes, this is done with a program called Camtasia. It makes adding those graphics super easy.
Or instead of using the window capture, use browser capture
agreed.

Hello Scott. Can you use google slide to go back to certain slide or go out of order? Sometimes we may skip around to different verses in our services. If so, how can we do it? Thanks
Yes, you can do that but you'll need to have Google slides open on a monitor so you can click the one you want to see.
@@ScottFichter Thank you. I have the slides working great (you are awesome). However the slides are very small and can’t read them. Am I still doing something wrong?
@@LighthouseBaytown Simply increase your computers screen resolution. I think it's CTRL + the plus key. Try it.
Scott have you tried PPT NDI?
I use it in conjunction with OBS, no need to green screen since it by default will create transparency on the PPT and send the slides over NDI. Transition was added but it's wonky at best, I only use it for static text.
