TikTok LIVE OBS Setup Guide
(2025) Clean Scenes, Stable Streams
OBS gives you control, overlays, and better audio – if you set it up properly. This guide keeps it simple and focused on what actually matters for TikTok LIVE.

A simplified OBS setup for TikTok LIVE with clean scenes and stable streaming settings.
Step 1 – Use a vertical canvas from the start
Set your base and output resolution to 1080×1920 or 720×1280 so what you see in OBS matches what viewers see on TikTok.
Step 2 – Keep your scene layout clean
- One main camera source.
- Readable overlays with large text.
- No flashing elements or tiny fonts.
Step 3 – Prioritize audio stability
People will forgive a slightly soft picture. They will not forgive distorted, clipping, or delayed audio. Set your mic correctly, test levels, and run short private tests before going live for real.
