    If you are not going to use the webcam software for zoom, this works easily. Just put the correct cam as source on each place. I was never able to get the logitech software to work right once connected to be able to zoom in and out when two cams were connected though.

    open adobe encoder
    open splitter
    select camera on both splitter and encoder
    select encoder from streamate drop down menu right before ou click start show
    pop up screen from sm will pop up
    copy and paste both urls in appropriate spot on adobe encoder
    click connect right below
    then click start and bottom and you will only see yourself on the encoder not on sm

    To split using the encoder: you simply need one webcam, a split cam software, and the encoder. Install and run the split cam software, open TWO instances of the encoder (or however many you are splitting) and choose the split software instead of your webcam in the encoder. Easy peasy.

    Seriously though, it's easy if you have the right computer. I used to split 4-5 sites all using the encoder before I moved to po-dunk town where the internet is sloooooow. Now I only split 2. If you need help I'll try to answer questions. I'm a big split cam fan.

    It's also easy to do with two webcams, which is what I do now.
    xoxo ~ Sarah

    It's not complicated on SM in widescreen if you have the RIGHT split cam software. I don't think any free software will do it the proper way. What software are you using?

    Thank you!! it says the fromat is wrong and also the sample rate is wrong but when i try to fix it according to streamates suggestions the encoder will not allow me tostart the encoder, so i just went on live without fixing .. also my room was sooo dead.. idk if it was because of the quality but im assuming

    Can you take a screen shot?

    When you look at the very soft icon in your system tray, over by the clock, what resolution is it set to?

    Yah take a screen shot of your encoder settings, doesn't have to be the error message just the settings that you have.

    Will the encoder allow you to use the proper settings if you are NOT running the split software?

    What are your very soft settings set to when you view the settings from the little icon in the system tray down by the clock?

    Is there a consensus on which split cam software is the best for camming purposes?

    Also, do split cam programs allow you to adjust your webcam settings? I am having the worst time adjusting my settings using the encoder, and the Logitech software isn't working in Windows 8.1 for me.

    Are you trying to fix each setting manually? That can cause a lot of errors.

    The better way to me is to download the exact settings streamate recommends from the links HD page (Support, HD encoder on your model profile) then open them each time with the encoder. (File, Open Profile and then open wherever you saved the profile from SM's recommendations).

    This is by far the best one I've used: http://very-soft.com/product/webcamsplitter

    I don't believe this one I linked will let you adjust the webcam settings. I've never run into issues using the Logitech software for adjusting settings while splitting with this software though.

    As far as the settings for the Verysoft i really dont know where or how to get to the settings i only know how to turn it on this is all i found



    And this is the encoder error message i get when i use the sm settings


    OMG i though i had at least basic computer 101 skills!!! Jeez i really need to brush up.. Thank you so much sarah!!

    This is how the encoder should look. Hopefully this is helpful to you.
