Elgato Stream Deck – OBS integration

This article goes over the proper installation to use Elgato Stream Deck with the WebRTC version of OBS Studio.


Before you install Stream Deck software, make sure you have the regular version of OBS Studio installed. Elgato has this article of how to integrate Stream Deck with OBS: https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028239431--Elgato-Stream-Deck-OBS-integration-


Then to configure the WebRTC version of OBS Studio do the following:

  • Open a Finder window.

  • Open menu Go --> Go to Folder...

  • Put the following folder path:

  • Rename it as "obs-webrtc" (you will again be asked for your password)
