Guides

Everything we learned getting a full streaming setup to work on Linux, in the order you will need it. Each guide says what tuxcast automates and how to do it by hand.

Guide	Read it when
Streaming on Linux in 2026	You are setting up, or switching from Windows
OBS on Linux	Choosing an encoder, capturing games and screens, multistreaming
Stream Deck on Linux	You own a Stream Deck
Audio routing	You want the music out of your VODs, or Discord on its own fader
Discord and Spotify in sandboxes	A Stream Deck key or media key does nothing
Music without claims	You play music on stream
Network	Twitch says your connection is unstable
