Using a different laptop on same network

Open graemerz opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

My DJ software is running on a different laptop than the one I’m streaming OBS on. I have created a browser source and entered the IP address of the computer running unbox/DJ software and used that in place of localhost as advised. Both machines are on the same network, but for whatever reason I cannot get it to work. I have pinged each laptop and they can both see each other.

Graemerz if you put the link in a browser does it show the information. that will allow you to know if you other laptop see the apps. Second i know i had that issue and i had to change something in obs because it was not showing the information.

this is how i fix it Make sure hardware acceleration of browser sources disabled. in OBS

DJUcron, ok I’ve put the link into the browser and yes, it appears to be fine. Still not working in OBS though, disabled hardware acceleration as advised didn’t change anything…

Hope this will resolved your issue because beside those problem that i encounter with OBS while setting up the apps. I don't know what could be the issue.
