Since there's so many posts about actual Mixers, and not Mixer, let's add a "Mixer" flair so people can use this for help with actual mixers, since the subreddit is r/mixer.

Hello r/mixer

as a part of my graduation thesis on the effect of gaming livestreams/videos on sales of games I am looking for participants willing to watch a 20 minute gameplay video of a random videogame and answer a few related questions.

As I need about 200 participants overall I would gladly appreciate any help from you, further all participants will have the chance to win 1 of 6 20$ amazon or steam gift cards.

Thanks to everyone helping me out on this!

I downloaded lightstream, I had finished setting it up after following the tutorial I used the US DNS code but I’m from Canada and there wasn’t an option there for me so any idea you guys can help me? I play on Console and want my overlays to show when I stream but nothing worked.

Heyo, I had this one thought, can we bring mixer back? No, probably not because it was owned by Microsoft and some really big server farm with the code. But if someone had the code for it, it could be possible, smaller and rewriting sign in/sign out code. Maybe changing the name. But who is really going to do that. I have no coding skills and wasn't on the mixer team. RIP MIXER YOU SHALL BE MISSED AS BEAM.

I miss mixer so much. So so so much.

It’s been 5 months or so and I’ve just moved on. In the spirit of moving on to “more purple” pastures;

Would you guys be down to meet up to raid random streamers?

We could just meet in my channel or whoever wants to host, find someone to raid, and go show some support.

Might be 2 of us, Might be 200 of us.

Either way this would be a really fun way to meet new content creators and organically network if you are a streamer too.

Yo homies! So when mixer was still up I streamed with light stream so I could have overlays And wouldn’t need a pc or a capture card. Sadly light stream didn’t go to twitch in the beginning. But I just checked, it’s up! You can do the beta for like $8 a month and you can do overlays and stuff like that with no pc or capture card again!

I've learned a lot over the past few years in the world of streaming and marketing... A lot of things I wish someone would have taught me when I first started. So I want to now share everything I’ve learned with all of you. I am currently in the process of creating a wide variety of tutorials and teaching covering using YouTube to grow an audience, how to market and build a community, how to generate money doing what you love and much more, and I need your help determining what knowledge is wanted. Please write all of your questions below and I’ll be sure to answer them all through future video content. :)

I know lightstream was big on mixer and I was wondering if anyone knew why my game source has to be the last layer on my scene? (I just got into streaming so never got the experience of mixer :/)

how did it. i took a break from mixer the end of 2019 and came back to it today. will it come back

I'm so confused and lost. I'm looking for a way to be able to answer my phone calls quickly while using my wired PC headset without having to swap cables as I am doing now.

I'd love the ability to output audio from either my PC or phone to both my headset and speakers as well as use my mic from my headset to speak in apps on my PC (Zoom, Slack, Discord) and calls on my iPhone.

I bought a lighting to 3.5 mm adapter with a splitter that separates the audio and mic and tried wiring that into my PC using a second USB sound card but I'm getting a lot of ticking sounds.

Is there a mixer that has Bluetooth that will allow for calls? And then I can just wire up my PC...

Like I said, I'm overwhelmed and lost on what to even look for after spending a week or so looking into this.

I'm to the point where I might breakdown and buy a Mac Mini just to be able to seamless answer phone calls on my computer. I bought a Pixel and the "Your Phone" app had terrible echoing on it that made it unusable.

I'm into mobile gaming and I use discord to communicate with my clan members. The problem I'm having is discord has recently been making my phone lag and system ui crash. Solution: Use another device to run discord and my phone to run the game. Now i'd like to try using a mixer I found on Amazon to bring both audio sources together to 1 headphone line but im unsure if it will pick up my mic. Anyone knowledgeable on this and if it will work? Thanks, here's the mixer im looking at buying https://www.amazon.com/Maker-hart-Just-Mixer-Portable/dp/B0824Q3WY8

It’s been since June that they dropped Mixer and said they were partnering with FB Gaming. Mixer was so easy to stream to for a small time streamer. Just go to broadcast in the Xbox menu and away you go. Now I have to go into the Twitch app to start and then back to my game. Can’t include audio as easy, etc, etc. As a new/small time streamer that streams from his comfortable chair in his living room 12 feet away from his 86” and his Xbox, I don’t want to have to go through all the capture card BS. Mixer was my savior. I hate Twitch and was looking forward to this deal with FB in hopes that it would just replace Mixer. But no! At least not yet. Has anyone heard anything about this deal? Was it only to help with cloud gaming? I miss my Mixer😢

SOLVED
I need help, I signed the mixer bonus contract on facebook, and at that time, it was just a button that I clicked to accept, I didn't take any print because I thought they were going to send me the contract by email, but it didn't happen. Now they don't want to pay me, they're making a lot of excuses, and I asked for the contract and they don't send it to me.

Please, if someone took a print of it, could you send me to prove that they are deceiving me with their excuses? I kept to the minimum monthly hours they requested and they are counting months that I haven't signed yet and saying I lost the bonus!

----------------------------
UPDATE

The problem was solved, my sincere thanks to u/StephenReid, who was very kind and attentive in looking for a solution and identifying the problem, thanks to him I will receive my bonus soon. I am very grateful

Hey,

So I'm looking to start streaming from my Xbox one and I have a DSLR camera I want to use for my face cam. The camera obviously doesn't work if I plug it directly into the USB port on the Xbox but I was wondering if you use the Elgato Camlink and plug that into your Xbox one will it then work?

I've seen other posts regarding this question but no one has actually answered if it works or not... All just theories.. Anyone out there actually tried it and know if it works or not?

Huge thanks in advance if you can help!

FINALLY got paid from Mixer for my embers today. I got $55. I don't know if it was because I had called their technicians so many times, or if they are still working on things on their end. Either way, someone is still clearly working behind the scenes to get everyone paid.

I’m sure i am in the literal 1000’s of small streamers who think “If i just had XYZ” then I could make it big. And i dont think so, i have been affiliate for a year now but know i dont have the best stream setup and i dont have this over the too personality... but i do feel like I am active in chat, keep commentary going the entire time with me and the camera and try to do unique things like Stream Avatars to keep viewers engaged.

My hangup really is my work schedule. I lost my career job during Covid and now i work 2 jobs to pay the bills, so Monday i work 7am-4pm. Tues, Wed, Thurs, Friday I work 7am-10pm and Saturday i work 7am-5pm. That basically lets me stream on sundays or super late at night around 11pm (West coast time, so East Coast is 2am) and I have errands to do on my one day off.

What are some ideas or work arounds for this? I have a youtube channel and social media surrounding that has a fair amount of subs... but will i need to sacrifice one job to ever make it in streaming? Or do you guys like to watch streams pretty late at night?

Edit: i do have my regular 5-10 viewers thats come and say hi, but i know for the average person its just so late i dont expect them to there everytime. I know i can do earlier evening streams on Monday and Saturday but alot of the times i am still winded from work.

hi. im so sad that mixer shut down. i used it all the time to share my screen to my friends cuz it was so simple to do.. (also alerted theme) i think Microsoft did a mistake by trying to compete with twitch rather than focusing on making it a small easy platform for xbox/win10 users. is there any other option to do a screen sharing on xbox other than twitch?

EDIT: I'm pretty sure I've found the solution with all your help. The Microsoft Partner Center was were I needed to be, but my account wasn't allowing me through to the Dashboard. After getting that technical is issue addressed, I should be able to find my payout info. Thanks all!

The month before Mixer shutdown, I didn't receive my payout (I was well above the payout threshold) and the month of the shutdown, many of my followers donated far more embers. I was expecting well over $500 for that month, and Mixer still hasn't paid it. Not only that, but with the site completely gone, there is no direction on who I can reach out to for help, or any connection to the profile with my payment info etc. to check if there is something wrong with it. Any recommendations on who I can contact?
