Before going live, make sure all your equipment is properly set up.
To stream, you’ll need to use both the ZEPETO LIVE PC program and a broadcasting tool like OBS at the same time. Launch the ZEPETO LIVE PC program and OBS --> Enter the OBS stream key from the PC program into OBS.
2-1) OBS Settings
Launch the OBS program.

When the OBS auto-configuration wizard pops up, click “Cancel” without entering any info.
Go to File → Settings.

In the Output tab, set the Video Bitrate to 2500 kbps (Recommended range: 2000–3500 kbps).
Match the rest of the settings to the example shown in the image.
Next, go to the Video tab.

Set both the Base (Canvas) Resolution and Output (Scaled) Resolution to 720x1280. Set the Common FPS Values to 30. (Even if you choose 60 fps, ZEPETO’s servers process it as 30 fps.)
Click Apply and then OK — and you're all set! 👍
2-2) Setting Up the ZEPETO LIVE PC Program
Once you’ve finished setting up OBS, launch the ZEPETO LIVE PC program.

Log in with your ZEPETO ID and password to access the program.

Ta-da! You’ll see your avatar on the left side of the screen. Try turning your head or smiling to check if face tracking is working well. 😉 In the center, you can choose between Face + Hand Tracking or Face (Upper Body) Tracking.

PCs that meet the system requirements below can try out Upper Body Capture and Full Body Capture! For Full Body Capture, your entire body must fit within the camera frame, so we recommend using a wider space for the best experience. Please note that these features are only available on PCs that meet the system requirements listed below.
- OS : Windows11
- GPU : Equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce or AMD Radeon graphics card
- Beta options are only available when an external graphics card is connected.
At the bottom center, you can customize gestures, filters, items, backgrounds, and avatars. Feel free to change them even during the stream—experiment and have fun!
On the right side of the screen, you’ll see chat messages from viewers. Make sure to check in and interact from time to time—engaging with your audience is key! 🎤
2-3) Connect OBS Studio and ZEPETO LIVE PC
Now, let’s connect OBS Studio and ZEPETO LIVE PC!

Open OBS Studio and click the [+] button in the Sources panel at the bottom.

Select the source that matches your PC environment:
- Windows: Select Spout2 Capture
- macOS: Select Syphon Client

In the source settings window, select your desired source from the Spout2 / Syphon Sender list:
- ZEPETO Live - Full: Full screen (Character + Voice donation + Gesture)
- ZEPETO Live - Character: Avatar character only
- ZEPETO Live - Gesture: Gesture donation alert only
- ZEPETO Live - VoiceDonation: TTS voice donation alert only
- ZEPETO Live - Wishlist: Wishlist only
💡 OS Background Transparency Setup Tip!
- Windows (Spout2 Capture) Keep Composite Mode set to the default setting

- Mac (Syphon Client) Make sure Allow Transparency is checked in the properties window. ※ If this option is unchecked, noise or graphic glitches may appear in the background.

- Tip: Rename your sources to make them easier to identify. (e.g., Avatar, TTS, etc.)
Congratulations! You're all set to stream!🥳
⚠️ Caution!
If the screen flickers or appears overly bright, go to [Settings] → [Display] and turn HDR Off to resolve the issue.
2-4) Arranging Individual Sources & Configuring Stream Layout

Follow the steps above to add the Character, Gesture, VoiceDonation, and Wishlist sources separately.

Drag and resize each source freely on the OBS canvas. You can customize your layout without losing quality or creating unwanted border shadows! Your personalized stream screen is now complete 👏👏👏
📘 Tip
When arranging your sources, make sure they don’t cover the chat box or stream information, keeping mobile viewers in mind.
When viewers watch on mobile devices, the chat box appears at the bottom, while stream information appears at the top. Be sure to leave these areas clear when setting up your layout!
2-5) ZEPETO LIVE PC Other Settings
Want to add another window to your stream screen?
Go back to OBS Studio, click the [+] button under Sources, select Window Capture, and click “OK.”
Window Capture can be used to show the ZEPETO LIVE PC background or display a real-time chat box on your stream!

Open Window Capture Properties and select the active ZEPETO LIVE window to display it on your stream.

⚠️ Note for Windows Users!
When using Window Capture on Windows, set Capture Method to Windows 10 to apply transparency correctly.

Hold the Alt key and drag the edges of the source with your mouse to crop and display only the area you want to show.

You can also adjust the chat box background transparency using the transparency slider👏
3) Start Your Live Stream
Once all your settings are complete, it’s time to enter your stream info!
Click the red LIVE button in the center of the screen.

Fill in your live stream title and announcement.
Then choose your category: Wish, Talk, Gaming, Fashion, Music, or Guest.
Setting the right category helps viewers find your stream more easily!
You can also choose whether your stream is public or private, and whether you want to enable support/donations.
⚠️ Note
- You can’t start a live stream without a title (must be between 1–20 characters).
- The announcement can be up to 100 characters.
- You can edit your stream info even after going live.

Once you’ve entered the info, click the Start button!
But wait—your stream isn’t live just yet.

You now need to copy the Server and Streaming Key into OBS.
Click the Server and Streaming Key buttons to copy each one.

Go back to OBS, open Settings > Stream, set Service to Custom, and paste in the Server URL and Streaming Key you copied from the ZEPETO LIVE PC program.

Finally, in the OBS main window, click Start Streaming. Your stream will now be live, and viewers can watch it on the ZEPETO mobile app! 👏
