IRL Pro Setup
In this guide we will go through setting up IRL Pro and OBS using our Video Ingest servers
To utilise the power of IRL Pro, we only recommend using SRT and NOT RTMP. This guide will only focus on SRT
Log into the client portal on a device which isn’t your streaming phone
Under “Your Active Products/Services” click on “Video Ingest – Video Ingest Server“
Find “Scan QR Code to add to Larix, Streamcast Pro or IRL Pro“
Where the screenshot shows “QR CODE” yours will display a QR Code.
Open the camera app on your phone (IMPORTANT: NOT IRL PRO) and scan this code with your device
Your phone should show something similar to above (Screenshot from Samsung S24 Ultra) – press it
It should give you an option to open with IRL Pro, select this and press Just once or Always. You may not get this screen.
IRL Pro will confirm if you want to import the settings, press OK
In the Lower Third, it will show something similar to the above
Confirm the settings imported correctly:
Press the Cog wheel in the Top Left corner
Press Connections
You should see AntiScuffSRT with the SRT IP from the Client Portal
Adding the Media Source to OBS
Within the client portal you will see the above, copy it to clipboard as we will need it shortly
In YOUR OBS, click on the + icon, and Media Source
In the box which pops up, put in a unique and rememberable name (1) and press OK (2)
Follow these steps:
- Untick “Local File“
- Network Buffering – 1 MB
- Input – URL copied from Portal earlier
- Reconnect Delay – 1s
- Ensure “Use hardware decoding when available” is unchecked and the following are checked; “Show nothing when playback ends” and “Close file when inactive“
- Press OK once done
IMPORTANT: Ensure your media source looks the same as the above, with the exception of number 3, which should be your URL from the dashboard!
Back in the Sources list, right click on the newly created Media Source (1), go to “Transform” (2) and click “Stretch to screen” (3)
The Preview should now look like the above when the Media Source is selected
