Gear
Controller and Stream Control
You can control a stream from a controller or a phone. Use the phone remote for scenes, alerts and extensions.
The short answer
Use the phone remote to control scenes, alerts and extensions while you play. A controller works for the game; the phone handles the show.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Start with the camera and microphone you already own, and test them in Streamdzy with a short recording.
- Add one piece of gear at a time, and check the change in the picture or the sound before buying the next.
- Use the webcam test and the microphone test to measure what you have, before you spend money.
- Use the Health check to see whether your PC can handle the extra camera.
What to know first
Gear advice is general. Prices and models change. Streamdzy works with any camera or microphone your PC or phone can use.
Questions
Can I use a controller to switch scenes?
Set the shortcut on a key your controller’s software can press, or use the phone remote.
Want all of this in one app?
Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
