Hello,

I am way out of my league here so help is most appreciated. We providentially had cameras installed two weeks ago in our church... Now we need to livestream our church services due to coronavirus. I am able to pull the video feed into obs abs load stream to YouTube. However we have no audio.

We have a speaker near the camera that we tried to pull the feed from and connect to the DVR rca port in the back with no dice.

We need the microphone feeds through our church sound system to come through the video feed if that is possible
 
mblack,

Welcome to the forum!

We have a speaker near the camera

You mean you have a microphone near the cam, correct? If so, let's proceed.

We have a microphone near the camera that we tried to pull the feed from and connect to the DVR rca port in the back with no dice.

Did the microphone work before you tried using YouTube? ie: is this a local hardware problem or a streaming problem?
My 2 cents: Get the whole setup working before you move to streaming.

Another hunch: The "audio in" jack on the NVR may simply pipe the audio in to the "audio out" jack. Specifically, the general "audio in" jack may not have the audio become part of the audio/video stream associated with Camera1, Camera2,, Camera3, etc. Meaning audio isn't sent to YouTube.

Several variables involved in recording audio along with video. And then, several variables with streaming. Break this down into smaller chunks....

Welcome, and good luck!

Thabks you for the welcome and reply...

So by microphone I meant speaker from the church's system. Basically we want what comes out the speaker to come through the camera feed

I think your hunch is correct... Would there be a way to connect it to the camera
 
What is the make & model of camera (that streams the video for which you need audio) and make & model of "DVR" that it is connected to?
 
Mblack3, on what device is obs running? Separate computer? I have blue iris running for video from a camera with microphone and use obs to stream. If you can get your sound into computer with camera on screen , then obs screen and audio together.


At the moment, the computer is in a different building but we are looking to move into a spot in church near the sound system equipment
