What Jamluca Channels Are
What Jamluca Channels Are
A Jamluca channel is a place to group the widgets and tables you use for streams. It is not your YouTube or Twitch channel. It is a unit inside Jamluca for keeping stream assets organized.
For example, if you run multiple YouTube channels or stream brands, you can create a matching Jamluca channel for each one so the widgets and tables stay organized.
What You Can Manage in a Channel
Inside a channel, you can create and manage widgets that appear on your stream. Clocks, timers, counters, roulettes, captions, and other widgets can be prepared for each stream format.
You can also manage data that changes from stream to stream, such as roulette options or participant lists, with tables. By combining widgets and tables, you can update the data instead of rebuilding the same screen each time.
Invite Members and Prepare Together
You can invite members to a channel. This makes it easier to split work: the streamer can handle OBS while a teammate updates captions or table entries.
Members can access widgets and tables inside the channel. This is useful not only during preparation, but also when content needs to be updated during a live stream.
Invite and manage members from channel settings.
Examples of Separating Channels
- Separate stream assets for multiple YouTube channels
- Separate members for a personal channel and a team channel
- Separate widgets by brand or project
- Create a separate channel for testing
Too many channels can make it harder to find assets. Start with one channel, then add more when you have a clear reason to separate them.
Check Before Deleting a Channel
You can delete channels you no longer need. However, deleting a channel also deletes the widgets and tables inside it.
If a widget from that channel is already added to OBS as a browser source, its URL will stop working. Before deleting a channel, check that it is not used in a stream and that no needed assets remain.
After creating a channel, follow How to Use Jamluca to create a widget and add it to OBS.
