How do I run two OBSPortable.exe at the same time?

Submitted by gaveitatry on September 20, 2021 - 9:09am

I want to run one OBSPortable.exe that is broadcasting to Twitch and is capturing my Desktop. And then I want to run another OBSPortable.exe at the same time that is broadcasting to YouNow and is using OBS.ninja on my tablet's browser as a camera source. I want to broadcast to two different streaming services at the same time Twitch and YouNow, and have different video sources for each broadcast. I read online that I can create a OBSPortable.exe shortcut to my Desktop and then add -multi at the end. I tried it, but it wouldn't let me run two instances at the same time.

Musescore portable vs Musescore PortableApps

Submitted by paulvp on March 26, 2021 - 4:40am

I'm a regular user of Musescore and currently run version 3.5.2 via the PortableApps platform. I know though that version 3.6.x has been released and is apparently a significant upgrade in terms of appearance. I know also that the good folk at PortableApps will provide an updated version via the platform in the fullness of time, assuming this is still technically possible.

WaveShop tries to connect to internet when launched

Submitted by PortableGood on March 8, 2021 - 6:18pm

WaveShop immediately tries to connect to the internet without warning when it is launched.

I'm guessing it's trying to check for updates. I noticed the "Check for updates" option is enabled by default in the settings.

May I recommend disabling that setting by default, and then verifying that it no longer tries to connect to the internet when launched?

Can't pin OBS Portable to the Taskbar

Submitted by gaveitatry on February 13, 2021 - 2:10am

I can pin Firefox Portable to the taskbar, no problem. If I click on it from the taskbar to open it, it opens up exactly where it is pinned at.

But when I pin OBS Portable to the taskbar, it won't open up where it is pinned. It will open up and appear after every other program that is pinned to the taskbar.

Just to be sure, I unpinned both Firefox Portable and OBS Portable. And then I used PortableApps.com Platform to pin both programs. Firefox Portable worked. OBS Portable did not.
