OBS plugin

Translate your livestream and recordings right inside OBS Studio.

  1. Install the SermonWave OBS plugin Beta Install the SermonWave plugin for OBS Studio on Windows or Mac, get past the unsigned-installer warnings, find the SermonWave dock, and update or remove it.
  2. Pair OBS with SermonWave Beta Connect the SermonWave OBS plugin to your organization with a pairing code from the Dashboard, and learn how to unpair or move OBS to another device.
  3. Set up audio, languages and start/stop in OBS Beta Pick the pastor's microphone in OBS, choose when translation starts and stops, and set the languages your SermonWave OBS device translates into.
  4. Translated captions in OBS Beta Show translated captions on screen with the SermonWave Captions source, style them, and send CEA-608 closed captions with your OBS livestream.
  5. Record a translated copy in OBS Beta Make OBS save a translated copy of every recording, re-synced so each sentence starts when it was spoken, with a subtitle track and a .srt file.
  6. Stream a translated version from OBS Beta Send a second livestream per language from OBS to YouTube, Facebook Live or any RTMP server, with its own stream key, translated audio and captions.
  7. Stream to YouTube automatically from OBS Beta Sign in with YouTube in the SermonWave OBS dock so each language gets its own YouTube broadcast automatically, with privacy, title and stream key choices.
  8. Keep translation in sync with video Beta Use Sync to video, the sync delay and the Original audio and Under translation levels in the SermonWave OBS plugin, and play the translation in the room.
  9. Troubleshoot the OBS plugin Beta Understand SermonWave OBS dock warnings, find your OBS log and diagnostics, and fix common plugin error messages for pairing, streams, recordings and YouTube.
