    Stream Wheel for OBS and Live Broadcasts

    Random Wheel Picker gives you a clean way to run a wheel on stream without exposing the editing dashboard to your audience. Build the wheel, generate a public OBS link, and add it as a Browser Source in OBS to keep the broadcast focused on the spin itself.

    The stream version is intentionally stripped down to remove extra pages, navigation, and clutter. That means your overlay stays simple, readable, and easy to control while you are live.


    How the stream wheel works

    1

    Create the wheel

    Add your entries, colors, and winner settings in the main wheel editor before you publish the stream version.

    2

    Generate the public link

    Use the OBS connection tool to create a stream-safe URL for your Browser Source and keep editing controls private.

    3

    Add it to OBS

    Open your scene, add a Browser Source, and paste the public link into the URL field.

    4

    Resize and position

    Keep the wheel clean and centered inside the scene so it feels deliberate and easy for viewers to follow.


    Recommended OBS setup

    A well-sized Browser Source makes the wheel easy to position and keeps the entire overlay neat in your scene. Most creators get the best result by using a square source, leaving the default transparent background in place, and matching the stream layout to the wheel size.

    Use the public link

    The public stream URL is the only one you should paste into OBS. It is designed for display, not editing.

    Start with 700 × 700

    A square Browser Source gives you a clean and predictable frame for live wheel overlays.

    Keep the preview smooth

    30 FPS is a good starting point for most streams. Raise it only if your setup can handle the extra load.

    Leave custom CSS alone

    The wheel is already built for a clean stream layout, so the default OBS settings usually work best.


    Public and private links

    One link is for the stream and another is for editing. Keeping them separate avoids accidental exposure and helps you manage live updates without clutter.

    Public stream URL

    This is the version you paste into OBS. It keeps the overlay focused on the wheel while removing editing tools, page chrome, and extra navigation.

    Private editor link

    This one is only for editing names, options, and wheel settings. Keep it in a private browser tab and do not show it on stream.


    Control it while you are live

    Spin from the source

    Right-click the Browser Source in OBS, choose Interact, and then click or trigger the wheel from that interaction window while the stream stays live.

    Keep the overlay focused

    The live wheel is designed for display only. It keeps the audience-facing experience clean by removing extra controls, editor panels, and noise.


    Common issues and fixes

    Wheel not appearing

    Confirm that you are using the public stream URL, the source is visible, and the Browser Source width and height are set correctly.

    Saved changes not visible

    Save the updated wheel in the editor and refresh the Browser Source in OBS so the public overlay loads the latest version.

    Works with live setups

    Use the wheel in Twitch, YouTube, Kick, or any stream layout that supports Browser Sources.

    Keeps the editor private

    Your audience sees the wheel, while you keep the editing tools in a private, controlled workspace.
