4. Paste the copied URL, and fill out the width and height fields (1280 x 720). Afterwards, the layer with a game will be invisible, and the game won't start until you launch it in LiveReacting Studio.

Make sure that the layer with the Closest Game (Web Page 1) runs over the background layer. Also, make a tick on Transparent background.

5. Now, you just launch your stream via Wirecast, go back to your Closest Game project in the LiveReacting Studio, and click on Start.

To ensure that the game fills the entire screen without being cut off, adjust the tab with the game to make it narrower until the proportions are 16:9. This way, you will not have white bars in the stream, and the game will take up more space.
