Thanks for making this, I'm a relatively new UA-cam Gamer and have been having nonstop problems recording my game at a higher quality than 30fps 720p Side note: I use a small laptop for my recording so performance has always been an issue for me
Thank you very much. at first i didnt want give a chance since its 17min and most youtubers always longer their videos for something that could be like 4min. but amount of info here and experience i was shocked that you could shrink it to 17 mins. and plus you didnt blow up my mind with begging or demanding Likes and Subscripe. you defintly got big Like and Subscripe from me. thank you sir
Thank you for this video! I was struggling with capturing gameplay on stream (twitch) with my not too shabby gaming laptop, thinking it was my hardware. It was not my hardware. it was the fact I used display capture rather than game capture... I was also having some issues with the microphone noise suppressor. Now I'm not much of a shouter on stream, but I have a nano infinity gauntlet prop that I wanted to use. the suppressor cut off the sound effects though. I followed your guide as close as I could and it really helped! It does pick up some more background noise such as my laptop fan, but this is quite minimal and probably not really noticable when there's other sounds from games and such. Thank you!
I'm happy you found the video useful! I'll never understand why the obs team thinks rnnoise as default is a good idea :p took me a while to work out the problem too
@@shogoz true. I stream on a laptop and although RNnoise sounds a little clearer, it cut off too much noise. speex picks up a little more background noise when I speak (like my laptop fans) with the settings you recommemended but still does a decent job at cutting most noises out and it sounds a bit more clear. My biggest issue was with the way I was capturing gameplay. Lately I've been streaming a lot of Fortnite and I had to lower the settings so much to make it playable, now I am still running performance mode with some sacrifices but I can play at 120fps stable while streaming a much clearer looking game. So again, thank you!
I greatly appreciate you showing us how to record a black screen with no sound. I have had a lot of difficulty with that because all my videos in the past have have annoyingly included a video display and audio so this was particularly helpful. The only other thing I would have included in this tutorial was how to crash the OBS programme to make it unusable for video and audio recording but I am just nit-picking :)
This is the best OBS tutorial I've seen so far. I saw so many. Well done fella! Unfortunately. I'm a laptop-pleb with an RTX 3080. Convenience and portability over raw power.
Thank you so much for your OBS videos. I've been banging my head against the wall cleaning up things in post because I couldn't get the settings right before filming things.
You have no idea how grateful I am that you made this video. I just got a new laptop that has decent specs and I couldn't get OBS to record smoothly at all. My recordings were like 3 frames per second. I watched a bunch of different OBS setting tutorials and all of them told me to turn on advanced settings. Every setting I changed made it even worse than it already was. Now I am able to record my games a lot smoother thanks to you! I really appreciate it, you earned yourself a like and a new subscriber! 😁
Man you are awesome. It's crazy how long I've been trying to get my PC screen recording to look crisp. Text and everything in general always looked so low res. Followed this exactly, and it looks like a 1 to 1 of what I'm seeing live. Also the m4v tip is something I didn't know about either, and I usually have skipping issues when putting things into the editor, so I really appreciate that. Thanks dude! Subbed!!
If I start up obs and set the quality to indistinguishable, after I do that If I switch from simple to advance, without touching any of the advanced settings will it still change the quality or will it remain as indistinguishable settings because I want to have multiple audio tracks for game, audio and discord or will I have to setup advanced settings
Another awesome video that’s entertaining and fun to watch on top of being incredibly informative and useful. 😁👍👍 I appreciate you for going into such a high level of detail and thoroughness. 😄👌 I’ll definitely be copying & using these settings when I start streaming. 😄👌📷💡🗣️🎙️🎮 Cheers to you, my man! 🥃🥃
I started putting ideas together for it after reading your comment - thanks for the idea!! Not sure when it'll be up because I just started a new job but it will definitely be the next video. Anything particular you want in it?
whats better display capture or window capture i use window capture whats better destop audio or application audio capture I use application audio capture
just wanna say. I've watched countless. countless. videos on obs settings trying to fix my poor video playback after a recording session, despite using top notch settings. you're literally this first person to clarify that having an alternate drive could fix all of that lmao. im on a new build and was too lazy to transfer over my SSD from the old build... thanks dude, earned my sub forsure.
Makes me really happy to read this! I'm really lucky I know Goncy because if he didn't tell me how he fixed it, I wouldn't have been able to include it in the video. I'll let him know it helped - thank you Bronos! :D
Hello, I've seen another comment say the same thing but I need my audio tracks to be separate, and I would love to see your advanced settings, it seems that the video in my files has way better quality than after exporting it in 1440p at 24 bit rate (like youtube recommends) in Premiere Pro and I don't know if it's an OBS or Premiere pro issue
When I update this video i'll definitely show my advanced settings as well as recommendations! My export settings in Premiere are pretty basic because I always choose Preset: Match source (Adaptive High Bitrate) Format: H264 then in the video section I click 'Match Source' (I have OCD) then I tick 'Render at Maximum Depth' and 'Use Maximum Render Quality'. Under 'Bitrate Encoding' I select VBR 2 pass. If I made longer videos, I'd probably keep 'Use Maximum Render Quality' unticked as well as not use VBR 2 pass because it would take forever to render if it was a 20 minute video and I don't really have that much patience. Try those encoder settings!
The problem with GeForce shadow play is it doesn't allow multiple audio inputs, my SteelSeries headset allows me to split audio into 3, gameplay, chat (discord), and media (Spotify) this is great for OBS but doesn't work with GeForce as it will only record my mic and my desktop, meaning if you have a clip where you and your friends are talking it'll look like you are just talking to yourself while playing. I can get around this and set my discord as gameplay but then I have no control over the audio channels if I wanted to edit a clip. I know I could change my audio settings so GeForce records everything but then id need to change them back if I was to use OBS and vis versa. Would be great if Nvidia had more options for audio or just a straight passthrough from OBS to shadow play so you get your filters on the recording.
Thank you so much! I will test it and see what happens. I've been using other people's settings who have Nvidia but I'm on Amd. Videos are laggy.. I'll try the simple mode now.
I've never used it sorry. You can split your audio directly in OBS using Application Audio Output Capture by adding it as a source and choosing the application though.
I don't know where to find the answer and you're video answered so many other questions, but for recording gameplay and having a 1070 gpu with a Ryzen 3900x cpu, I'm not sure whether to encode in x264 for more cpu usage since I don't feel the 1070 is powerful enough. Thanks for the help and looking forward to more videos!
For your setup I'd still use nvenc but try both just in case. Make sure you choose a gpu intensive game when you're doing your test recordings. Have a great weekend dude thanks for watching!
14:16 Worth noting that GPU encoding on older cards (10-series and older) slightly reduces the quality of the video compared to CPU encoding, so it might not be best for everyone.
Recording quality is completely dependent on your bitrate, resolution and in-game graphics settings (what's being recorded). Plus, if you use your GPU to handle the encoding, then less resources will be needed to record. This makes your GPU the better encoding option in every situation.
Heya. New here. Loved your easy to follow video. I've set everything up and sadly, no GPU here, but I won't be gaming so here's hoping it turns out alright. Your humor is fantastic.
Hello, I applied all the settings and it gives very good quality. But I have only one problem. I already did all the voice settings, my mic is okay but the desktop sounds are too low in the video.
I'd love to see your settings for advanced output. I like having my tracks separate because I also record discord, and sometimes there will be a 3rd or 4th person who just ruins the clip, but my video quality seems washed out no matter what I do.
I'll definitely show my settings for advanced output in a future OBS video! It sounds like an HDR setting somewhere is causing the colours to look washed out
For anyone wondering why their recording's colors are looking washed out in the advanced tab make sure your color range is set to limited instead of full, if its set to full set it to limited immediately. Please pin this message to help people out! :D
Thank you for the info dude is this for HDR monitors? Do the colours still look washed out when recording in h265 (HEVC) until you change from limited to full? or do they only look washed out for people recording in h264? Asking cuz I don't have an HDR monitor unfortunately - thank you for your comment! I'll definitely be checking later to see if you responded.
@@shogoz Yeah sure, no problem man! This works on H.264 and H.265 on all types of monitors. All you have to do is change the color range from "full" to "partial" if you have it on full.

Good vid but are we gonna ignore bros game names ☠☠☠
Hilarious / Informative. 7/5
My videos turned into audio for some reason, there in MKV and MP4
I figured it out, when using NVIDIA (NVENC, HEVC) it’s switches my video to audio
I currently record with a 1080 Ti and I am wondering should I used Hardware Nvenc H.264 or Hardware Nvenc Hevc for the best Quality?
Yo yo Nvenc hevc is the latest - use that one!
@@shogoz Ok awesome thank you.
Simplest and best recording OBS settings tutorial I found, actually knows what they're saying. Love your voice btw, reminds me of Justin Roiland
I greatly appreciate you showing us how to record a black screen with no sound.

You sound like morty from Rick and morty 😂😂

Thank you so much for your OBS videos. I've been banging my head against the wall cleaning up things in post because I couldn't get the settings right before filming things.
watched the whole video just to get shit on at the end for using AMD.
😂
Only OG will remember the first version
i swear to God this video is underrated
I prefer replay buffer on OBS because the other one just won't pick up my mic no matter what and I also need the multi audio tracks
You have no idea how grateful I am that you made this video. I just got a new laptop that has decent specs and I couldn't get OBS to record smoothly at all.

I noticed mkv makes my gameplay recording kinda stuttery in some way whereas mp4 is so smooth

You and your friend are the bests
Can I use the Nvidia noise removal plug in?
Yep you can :D not sure how good it is though cuz I haven't used it on OBS
If I start up obs and set the quality to indistinguishable, after I do that If I switch from simple to advance, without touching any of the advanced settings will it still change the quality or will it remain as indistinguishable settings because I want to have multiple audio tracks for game, audio and discord or will I have to setup advanced settings
it will change the quality because if u change it from simple to advanced u have to set a specific bitrate in advanced but in simple u don't
Another awesome video that’s entertaining and fun to watch on top of being incredibly informative and useful. 😁👍👍

What confuses you the most about OBS? If you tell me I might include it when I update this video to make OBS less confusing for people
Just in time, I was just thinking about this
Thanks for the tips✌
Not my NuhVidia!
Definitely a Nuhvidia with the current prices they're charging for a gpu now
why is "Loli Licker" on your desktop 💀
yum
If you use an Nvidia GPU. Why not use Nvidia Noise Removal?
Which part of this video do you think it would be better with it? Feel free to timestamp
YEEERRRR
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Shadowplay sucks tho. turns off whenever I play music or movies, and the quality compared to OBS is shit.
😭😭😭
