Flutin Live vs. OBS Studio

What most attracted me to Flutin is the ability to livestream to Instagram. I have a rather large following and this was critical. Their UI is also very easy to use and figure out. I wish they could figure out their latency issues for HD videos and add TikTok to the platform

From simple streaming to bigger events, OBS has been able to handle all of it with full confidence from us. Have never questioned if it was going to be unreliable in a specific situation, even with minimal training. Software identified the external input source easily and had no issues setting that up (Blackmagic Mini Recorder), and great for pulling in separate audio from the computer input.

Very usable because it is free and has had a lot of people helping to suggest improvements and sponsors have allowed the product to grow in sophistication and suitability across a variety of situations and use needs. It is very logical to use once you get started, although the dashboard can seem intimidating at first.

For a free product, a range of support is available. There are plenty of ways to find out answers to questions, because there are probably thousands of people using the product who are willing to share what they have learned. It usually works as designed, so needs for support are limited.

Flutin Live is more robust and offers more platforms to livestream than BeLIVE. BeLIVE only offers YouTube and Facebook and has never expanded. There are far more platforms today and Flutin is trying to keep up with the times, which I really appreciate. I also like the ability to upload pre-recorded videos, which BeLIVE doesn’t do

I have also used TinyTake by Mango Apps and I prefer OBS studio because the video quality results are better and OBS allows you to record an unlimited length of the video. OBS also lets you record an entire screen instead of manually having to draw your parameters, which can create oddly sizes videos if you miss by a few pixels.

• Allows me to connect to my community
• Allows me to chat with them on the Flutin site
• Allows me to add links through the livestream.

• Cost is free, so any benefits are immense in terms of investment.
• Learning curve is steep, so time can be a cost.
• Flexibility is probably the biggest benefit to the people that use it.
