wow you have no idea how hard it is to find someone who really walks you through all of the steps for this. all of the other creators I've watched seem to forget that some of us are starting from scratch and have no clue about some of this stuff. Thank you!
I’ve spent months trying to figure out how to make reaction videos with my camera. You explained it perfectly now I can get busy making the videos and not searching for steps to get it done. Thank you so much! Nobody else simplifies the method like you did. 😊
Thank You. This has got to be the best OBS tutorial videos out there. Step by step and at the right speed for beginners. Others move to fast or cover to much at one time.
I have never been more excited to subscribe to a channel like I am right now. It’s surprising how hard it is to find a tutorial like this on RUclips in 2024. You were such a great teacher and very straight to the point! Thank you!!! Totally recommend this to anyone looking for a FREE way to screen record a RUclips reaction video!
@@MichaelFeyrerJr Ignore that person. I'm immediately sharing this video with my sruggles; including the person who taught me but to the extent he knew.
Mike , please ignore the troll. Thank you so much, this is exactly what I was looking for, a well thought out and comprehensive guide to creating reaction videos. I will be following this step by step and using it as a reference guide. Thanks once again and I have subscribed. 💯
@PallyLIVE sorry, not sure what exactly your point was. I *think* you are showing appreciation to the video creator for taking so much effort to teach us something that once we learn it, can be so easy. But unfortunately, due to the limits of text, it could also be read as a criticism. Which is hard for me to believe that is what you meant. So, if I were you and you meant the former meaning, you might want to edit the comment to include a “thank you” (as I certainly will, because this is gold. I was using StreamYard, which is not free and this will be way better for me now), either before or after your comment. My 2¢.
So far this video has helped me to understand the OB features. I clicked on the Display Capture and nothing worked the way you did it in this video for my react scene on the side. I only got it to work when I clicked Window Display. Now there are some things unsaid in this video that I didn't realize. That when you are scrolling and moving the image in the react scene, you can't do it in that scene box on the right of you. You have to semi minimize the OBS and the the captured window and pull the OBS down under the browser tabs. Of course the audience will never see this but it is something you have to navigate behind the scene. My not understanding this had me scratching my head in confusion until I figured it out. Now maybe I'm doing something funky that's maybe not quite right. You can let me know if I am.
Hello, my name is Johnnie and this was the best tutorial video I have come across for OBS beginners like myself. I don't usually leave a comment but in your case, I had to let you know how helpful this was to me. I also subscribed to your channel and gave it a thumbs up. I want to try and catch one of your live streams however I live in the Philippines so not sure that I will be able to. Once again thank you for your help. Take care
Wow, this was a fantastic video! Not just in terms of explaining how to use OBS for this specific use, but just as general "how to"...this really should be the standard. Many videos never answer the "how" part and just create more confusion. Sub button clicked.
omg this is what I needed , you solved all my problem audio echoing , selecting multiple display capture . This video is gold.... Can you also teach us how we can connect our Ipad to mac as a 2nd display maybe?
you could do it this way ruclips.net/video/oOSwv1-yFRQ/видео.html but I would recomend not using restream to add guest. I would use this. ruclips.net/video/XnP8DPhC4lA/видео.html
Is this with one monitor or two? When I have the window capture or display capture showing, I can't play/pause the video inside of OBS like you did at 15:17 . It just thinks I'm trying to resize the display
Thank you so much for your thorough explanation, by far the best tutorial on RUclips. Does it make a big difference using a built in apple FaceTime Camera? I don't have an alternative webcam just yet.
Better cameras always make a difference, however when you are just getting started you use what you have. Audio is much more important in the beginning. People will watch crappy video, they will not listen to bad audio.
Hi, this video guide is helpful. I watched so many other videos and pinged to other creators to help however nothing was helpful as it is. Two questions: 1. If I have video download on my laptop, should I still connect the 2nd screen? 2. For reaction videos, please recommend an affordable webcam as I'm a beginner?
I tried following step by step, but I got stuck in the Display Capture step. I had the main Google search window open, but it wouldn't display. I gave up.
Thank you so much. Ive just started my Ama-Paranormal rection channel, and have used an App, but couldn't created the videos how I want them. Im going to try this and see how it turns out.
Are you using multiple monitors for display capture . I only have one option which says primary monitor. I can only navigate onto the one screen it doesn’t give me a browser.
@@MichaelFeyrerJr thanks Micheal. I’m sorry for that. Stupid question. I actually now see that you say that in the video that is good to have multiple monitors even if it’s a TV. I think I will have to get a new computer because I’m using a laptop and for some reason once I start recording my computer starts freezing up really bad and I have no viruses or anything like that. I barely have any thing installed on my computer.
@@EctoplasmicGoo Laptops generally do not have a dedacated encoder which is very taxing on the CPU. X264 is a great encoder but it is also very cpu intensive so trying to do anything on a laptop while encoding can cause all sorts of issues.
@@MichaelFeyrerJr yes Michael you are very knowledgeable on this situation because that’s exactly what my computer is saying. it’s saying that my encoder is on overload 😂. But with the help of you in your video now, I know that I have to get a better set up and that is very helpful to me. Thank you very much. Thank you so much for responding to my message .God bless you, sir. I can’t wait to learn more things from you! Just wanted to throw this in there. I am the Eagles fan. I’m from Philadelphia. Fly Eagles fly.🦅🦅
Much obliged, Michael. A very clear and crisp step by step intro. My video capture for my reaction scene keeps freezing when I transition away from it to the main screen and back again. Any tips on how to prevent this? 😁
Hey, cool video & I have a question as well, how do big RUclipsrs/companies like gogglebox record reactions without headphones and not have background Audio of the show come through there mic? Because even if they weren’t reacting live surely the sound would still come through the mic? Looked everywhere but don’t know how to find the answer would love a response 🤟🏽
This is great, thanks so much, but when I have my youtube video in the window I cannot pause or play it by clicking in the window as you have done and I don't know why? Any ideas?
Hi there, im having trouble with Display Capture, it always shows what im doing instead of the browser that i want, and it does not have the multiple choices for the display setup, i only have one, and it only shows what im doing in the monitor… what do i have to do? Do i need another monitor for this?
Something I wanted to know was if I had a online podcast setup through zoom, could I have myself and my co-host in seperate blocks and then have a window capture where we could react to something online
Probably not with OBS. It does not have all the filtering like zoom or other comercial products that would allow you to listen to the audio through speakers and filter it out.
@@MichaelFeyrerJr I have tried it with that program when they are using their cell phone ...I can hear them but I can't see them and then if I can see them and hear them....anything I am playing on my side they can't hear it
So does that mean if i react to a video that I downloaded. I have to watch it from the smaller (and objected) player in OBS? Or is there a way i can watch it in fullscreen?
Thank you so much... been planning on making a reaction video channel for a while now... i am gonna start this week. Can you please give some tips and tricks to make my mic sound a bit better..
When I use the display capture all I get is the infinity screen, no matter what I do. if I open up the browser or youtube.. all I get is the infitity screen.
hey man i‘m german so it is not easy to understand… i have one macbook and one iphone where i film myself. with another iphone i want to make an audio file and cut it afterwards. so i have to mute the audio from my macbook of myself, but i need the sound from my reaction video. how do i do that?
Something is going wrong for me. I have followed your instructions to the letter. I cannot get the video to appear on Display Capture, and when I start the video and click on full screen, I can't get back to the OBS screen. Any idea what's going wrong?
Why does my obs studio video capture keep on crashing? This is my biggest issue, it also does this in other programs, it works for 30sec then goes to a colorful channel screen
How can we make reaction video with a long distance friend. I tried screen share with my friend on discord, on my friend's side video lags alot and vise-a-versa. And on other software & websites like zoom, google meet. Same thing happens video lag + only 720P output which degrades video quality. Can you please help me on this situation.
That is not lag. Its latensy. The signal takes time to travel across to your friends machine and then be processed by his machine. and rendered to his monitor. It will never be instantanious. These are hurdles you have to be creative to overcome, because they arent going away. The easiest way is to record it on your machine and on his then you can edit them together to create the illusion that it is all in real time.
I'm have issues with my display capture, it doesn't matter which display I select my OBS still remains the same, doesn't bring my browser out or anything
How can I make a reaction video with shorts? I can't get my portable PC to shorten the screen so that it's made for shorts. Is it possible? If so how do I do it?
OBS doesn’t recognize my iphone14. It did once but never again. After clicking Video Capture Device, I’m given FaceTime Camera and Virtual Camera only. What did I do wrong? How do I fix it? Thx

Something I wanted to know was if I had a online podcast setup through zoom, could I have myself and my co-host in seperate blocks and then have a window capture where we could react to something online
Yes
Can I do this on my phone, or do I have to download this app on. A laptop or desktop

Probably not with OBS. It does not have all the filtering like zoom or other comercial products that would allow you to listen to the audio through speakers and filter it out.
the best tutorial ever! Thanks Michael!
Okay I got that set up
Can you make a video with bringing someone into OBS and the person being able to hear the video you reacting to as well as you
This is as simple as using vdo ninja to add a guest and sharing your screen with them through the app.
@@MichaelFeyrerJr I have tried it with that program when they are using their cell phone ...I can hear them but I can't see them and then if I can see them and hear them....anything I am playing on my side they can't hear it
Thank you so much, this was so good 😊
best video on OBS so far .
Thanks!
Thanks .. can you please make a video on how an external monitor will help in operating obs..
Did I miss it? How do you download a video from (for example) Prime Video or HBO onto your own computer so you could edit it into your video?
i dont get all those options for display capture, just my primary monitor option..?
How did you crop the main cam? I am trying to do it but it just get small and bigger.
GREAT VIDEO, my friend. Really helpful.
Question - how would you adjust this for a RUclips Short? Can’t quite figure that out, thanks!
We didn't know Benny Hill's grandson was making tutorial videos after all. Good Stuff.
So does that mean if i react to a video that I downloaded. I have to watch it from the smaller (and objected) player in OBS? Or is there a way i can watch it in fullscreen?
When watching a movie and to avoid copyright infringements how do I do transitions post recording
Good Stuff.. enjoyed Michael
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks a lot 👍🏼😄
You're welcome 😊
How do you play the RUclips video from obs and what I mean is when reacting how can I pause and unpause from the screen capture?
Why is my camera frozen on the reaction scene but plays fine on the main scene?
Thank you so much, good sir ❤
glad to help.
Thank you so much... been planning on making a reaction video channel for a while now... i am gonna start this week. Can you please give some tips and tricks to make my mic sound a bit better..

Any suggestions for platforms compatible with chromebook?
Most reactions to music videos I have seen, have the hosts wearing headphones, but the audience can also hear the music from the music video as well.
hey man i‘m german so it is not easy to understand… i have one macbook and one iphone where i film myself.
with another iphone i want to make an audio file and cut it afterwards. so i have to mute the audio from my macbook of myself, but i need the sound from my reaction video. how do i do that?
When I press Display capture, the Google screen is not available, help please😢
Mine either😢
Is obs available for iPhone?
Something is going wrong for me. I have followed your instructions to the letter. I cannot get the video to appear on Display Capture, and when I start the video and click on full screen, I can't get back to the OBS screen. Any idea what's going wrong?
I almost never like or subscribe yet alone comment but your videos are awesome and extremely helpful appreciate the work you put in

great videos.
is there any mileage in using prism for reaction videos? - does it record?
thanks
I can't interact with the window at all like you do how I'm so confused
Do you know any reason why my camlink just turns off outa nowhere?
