Thought I'd look up how to stream on OBS if I ever do so and this video was so dang helpful for someone like me who just tends to get very confused very quickly with what a bunch of settings exactly do. So thank you for explaining it in a really simple way that was easy to understand what each did.
So damn helpful. Got stuck on default settings trying to capture footage from Genshin and nothing worked. I followed your guide step by step and now the footage is buttery smooth. Thank you so much man.
@@ralphjustralph401 Well your CPU and GPU do most of the work while capturing video. RAM matters yes, but in this case if you have an ok CPU & GPU to work with then you're good with 8gb.
@@lemonvibin3464 that was a fast reply... i think i5-9th gen with gtx 1050ti is enough. cause my laptop start lagging recently when i visit inazuma... thanks for your reply btw
For months I dealt with the horrible frustration of some reason my gameplay recording just never looked good even though I had every settings in the “optimal” way. I watched dozens of videos and I couldn’t figure out what was wrong. You are quite literally the only person who even brought up the Display recording vs game capture. Every person I ever saw do a setup of OBS never brought that up so I recorded all my gameplay footage for months in display mode because that’s where my elgato was so I thought it was what I had to use. I deleted all my videos and haven’t made one in months, but damn dude this is just what I needed to get motivated and jump back in. Thank you so much man
I love this guy literally like explaining everything on the book in one video. It kinda cracks me up, but I'm glad we have someone as dedicated as this guy to explain everything from A-Z 😂
Honestly a super good video. I have spent so long trying to learn this on my own through various videos and all the info was right here. Would have saved so much time and I still learned some stuff. Thanks!
Thank you a billion times bro. There are so many settings out there for OBS but no one except you explained the CPU usage preset. This was literally the reason why I had laggy recordings (was at medium). Now tested different presets while having task manager open and well well my cpu performs best at very fast because at faster it sometimes hits 99% and gets laggy for a little bit. Now I have lag free recordings and all this just because of you. Thank you bro. have been looking for a solution since a week and nothing really worked.
I just want to say.. Thank you so much! I have been trying to record specific games and they just haven't been working. You've literally saved my main channel, I am 100% dropping a sub!
Very comprehensive tutorial. My family loves watching me play video games, so I wanted to find a way for them to see what I do on PC. Because of you, now I know how to do that. Thank you.
For those who didnt hear any mic audio when you stopped recording and checked the video. Just place it in an editor and then you will hear and see your video, game audio and Mic audio all separated. :)
@@Theeinsom davinci is free is great . if your looking for one that has great pricing with great feautures , i prefer filmora 11 , it has a lifetime ($80) and a anuual for ~$45 a month if you like.
Wow, thanks alot, I was using a other screen recorder and my screen was black whole time because I was recording outside the game and I wasn't recording the actual game, now this guy really helped me out
omg thank you so much for this! instructions were clear and explained wonderfully. i learned exactly what i was looking for, and even learn some important stuff i didnt know i NEEDED to know!
Thanks for this! Just got OBS Studio and tried a short recording of Subnautica for RUclips (just private upload to check quality) but it looked terrible after uploading (very pixelated even in 1080) so hope these settings will help improve stuff. I used screen recorder and 1080p (my screen is 3440x1440, but set the game to 2560x1440 and only recorded that area) recorded to flv, not MKV, and didn't convert it to anything before uploading to RUclips. Will try again tonight and see if it become better.
You can't, but what you could do is running 2 instanced of obs and recording things separately or you can set up a custom resolution in obs, for example 2500x1080 instead of 1920x1080 that will be wider so you have space to put your gameplay on the right side and then other things like your webcam on the empty space on the left in your editor, you can then play around with this, make separate tracks out of it, so you have a track with your game fullscreen and then a separate track with your webcam but that's pretty advanced
@@TheVideoNerd Hi, I followed your steps as much as I could but I had to Window Capture setting since Game Capture doesn't recognize HI3 (Black Screen T^T), in the end I manage to capture a clip of my gameplay. You were saying earlier in the video that you can convert the MKV clips once you're done into MP4, how do you do so..? Pls help, my MKV is over 300MB and Google doesn't recognize MKV files T^T

The game I wanted to record is Genshin Impact, but for some reason "game capture" doesn't work, and in the "window capture" menu, the game doesn't show up. What do I do?
when i was trying to record genshin this also happened to me, but to fix it i changed genshin to a windowed screen, then i was able to actually see the game. u can switch it back to full screen after and it'll still be there, lmk if this helped!!
You really have no idea how much this video helps i watch this video every time I need to reset my obs settings and everything always works thank you so much defiantly earned a sub from me!

Thank you for this superb instructional video. It's a video I keep coming back to, to help me with OBS - a program that has a lot more depth than I thought. I can't figure out where you're from, but your English is flawless!
Dude, this video was so helpful. I was using Windows 10 XBOX Game Bar to record Spiderman Remastered on a 2K screen, and it didn't look good at all. Lagging, big drop in quality, I didn't get it. Found your vid, downloaded OBS Studio, and followed all your presets. My reaction to my first screen record of Spiderman, my jaw dropped, it looked so good! Appreciate the great advice brother.

New to OBS Studio since 2022/09/15 and I must say this is a perfectly well-done and comprehensive video so not only am I able to record my gaming footage but I can finally call it my new main recording software to use.

Quick question tho, I can only get audio from my headset mic if it is one the same audio track as the desktop. I was hoping there's a way to fix that with out having to buy a different mic?
Thank you so much for this video! I'm fairly new to OBS, and I had no idea how to record gameplay. I've been using Elgato's Capture software for years. I just bought a new PC which meant I had to buy Elgato's 4K60 Pro because with the new PC I also bought a new 4k monitor. Your video saved me from having to buy the 4K60 Pro. Thank you so much!

update? did the quality get better?
You're a hero. Tried to record an indie game that is almost impossible to record. Recording a window, while cropping did it.
I love your videoes! I have one question tho. Can you record your gameplay and your webcam in different tracks aswell?
You can't, but what you could do is running 2 instanced of obs and recording things separately
or you can set up a custom resolution in obs, for example 2500x1080 instead of 1920x1080
that will be wider so you have space to put your gameplay on the right side and then other things like your webcam on the empty space on the left
in your editor, you can then play around with this, make separate tracks out of it, so you have a track with your game fullscreen and then a separate track with your webcam
but that's pretty advanced
Is there a shortened way to record by pressing buttons on your keyboard? FOr example: Alt-z
@@Barca-4-Life go to settings and click on keybinds
than go to start recording and add your shortcut key
