Have you ever pulled off an insane clip on stream and wanted to replay it so your viewers can relive that epic moment again? In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to replay a 30-second clip live on your stream so you can relive those epic, clutch moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s jump in and take a look.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Setup An Instant Replay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Luckily for us, there is an instant replay feature built into Streamlabs and OBS. We are going to set it up so you can use a Hot Key to trigger an instant replay on Stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow the steps below to get started:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Open Streamlabs and go to the settings tab<\/li>
  2. Go to the output section<\/li>
  3. Make sure you’re on Output mode Advanced<\/li>
  4. Go to Replay buffer on the right-hand side<\/li>
  5. Enable Replay buffer<\/li>
  6. Select your maximum replay buffer (The more time the more computer resources get used)<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"Streamlabs<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    To make sure that the replay buffer is always running in the background we need to make it start automatically when we start streaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To do this go to Settings –> General and scroll down to Automatically start replay buffer when streaming.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Streamlabs<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    This means that the replay buffer will always be active on stream so you never miss one of those insane clips. There’s nothing worse than hitting a sick clip and realizing you didn’t record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To have the instant replay on our stream we need to add the “Instant Replay” source to our scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To do this go to Sources –> + –> Instant Replay –> Add Source –> Give your Instant Replay widget a name.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Streamlabs<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You will then see some settings for your instant replay. You can leave these as the default unless you want your clips to be sped up\/slowed down or looped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Your instant replay is now active on your stream.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
