    Very good tips. Old, but gold.
    I've been searching for a way to the user to manually switch the monitor it wants to see, but the Automatic MultiMonitor solution is way better than that.
    Thanks!

    Guys, I was hoping to see a demo of all this working together. The details given in this video is useful, but a narrated demo with what a viewer will see and what you one has to do in the background is what I am looking for. Please share any link where such details are available. Basically, I want to switch between, or show in inset the following: 1. a terminal window with code and commands, 2. a presentation window to show slides, 3. a presenter camera window to show the presenter, and 4. another camera to point at things. Seamless transition or juxtaposition of these will be the ultimate in my wishes. And once again thank you for the great content. My request is only because I am a complete newbie on this topic.

    Hi, I am a wedding filmmaker and sometimes the couple needs to stream the ceremony in 2 different ways.
    First, they need online streaming on Facebook in a dedicated web page. Second, they need to have a TV outside the church that stream what is inside. I have a dedicated source and the instruments but, I have also to manage different resolutions in order to have light video for the streaming and high resolution for the TV. How can I manage that in obs?

    Hi! Thanks for making the video! There are no videos on RUclips that tell you how to switch the screen on OBS, I have 2 screens, and one Laptop, that are all connected together so I can across my mouse across from one by one, and I want to know how to change the screen its showing. But I don't know how or If I even can. Right now, it is showing the laptop all the way one my right and I can only play my games on the first screen. So, I want to change it, so it shows my first screen, and not my laptop. How do I do that? Can you maybe make a video on it if you even can?

    Hi! The video somewhat helped but it wasn't the one I was looking for. I'm wondering if you could please help?
    In a few days there is a virtual summit I would like to go to but I have online class during those times. I need to record both of them at the same time without the audio overlapping. I'd possibly add a new desktop for the virtual summit and my main desktop for my classes.
    Does OBS have the capabilities to allow this? FYI, the program is technical that I resorted to Xbox game bar but in the event of this I would have to learn. If it doesn't have the capabilities, do you guys know a way?
    FYI Specs: I think I only have one playback speakers for my PC which is the sound device. I'm assuming I may need a virtual speaker/mic?

    I watched your video but honestly I don't understand any of what you talk about.
    Is there a way to select which screen you record in OBS? For instance, I have 4 monitors one monitor being my "primary monitor" that games play on. I am trying to be able to record a game on monitor 4 my primary monitor. How do I set this up in OBS?
    I have tried a number of the settings in OBS but no matter what I select I seem to be only able to record whatever is on monitor 3 which has OBS up on it. How does one select a specific screen to record with OBS? Strangely enough I have been unable to find any answer to this question as everything seems to be geared toward a single monitor system.
    One would think that PBS would simply give a choice of monitor 1, monitor 2, monitor, 3 etc or maybe at least primary monitor or something like that but they don't appear to have any way at all to select a specific monitor. Do you have to run OBS on the primary monitor with the game to get it to record the game?
    I am quite unimpressed with OBS at this point...

    Yo Eposvox, so I recently added a second monitor to my setup, but before I did I was streaming on a single monitor setup using Game Capture thru OBS Studio and everything was working as it should. After adding the second monitor I’m now getting a black screen in both Game Capture and Window Caprure, forcing me to use Display Capture. I’m wondering if you had a solution on how to fix this or possibly already a tutorial that maybe I’m overlooking..? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

    This might not be completely relevant to the topic, but my system seems to suffer VERY bad stuttering/frame drops when I have my second monitor JUST plugged in and on. I'm only streaming one screen with my chat and OBS on the secondary monitor. It seems to work perfectly find and smooth when I unplug the second monitor. My primary monitor (1440p 144hz) is using a Display port and my secondary (1080p 60hz) only have HDMI. It sucks streaming on just one screen because I can't see ANY info on my stream or see the stream quality.
    PC specs are a Ryzen 5 2600 6 core cpu and 1660 Ti 16gb of ram at 3200mhz no overclocks and temps never even reach 70 degrees. I'm so confused and its ruined my ability to confidently stream every night.

On your second monitor, go on your stream and you can make that tab smaller (or make it pop up if it can do that.) Do the same with discord. For obs you just wanna make your 2 monitors 1 big screen (look at videos to help you), but still only record one screen, if that makes sense. Feel free to reply if you don't understand.
