      What did you use to record this tutorial? I notice that I can't have OBS record itself without a video source added to a scene, so I'm wondering what you did to record OBS in a blank state.

      How about those yellow overlays that highlight different parts of the screen in yellow. How did you do those? For example at 1:27 and 1:54

    Best and only video about OBS that actually first explains what a scene is or what a source is, before diving in and telling you how to create/add them, when you don't yet know what they actually are or why you are adding them. Have been wishing I could learn to use OBS for over a year and yours is the first video that actually made me realise I can.

    This was very helpful because I only do 4 lives a month and didn't want to buy a subscription to yard stream or other streaming host that cost $40+ a month. OBS is free so I figure I'll try it. Maybe someday I'll need to do more but this looks so easy and you explained it very well. I have two cameras I want to use and I also want to put an image on the screen. This is perfect! Thank you so much. I'm subscribing because I think you need to be seen by many more people. Praying the algorithm picks you up and pushes you to many. more people.

    Great video! I will definitely refer back when I feel brave enough to embed another screen, or use any other elelments. But my main thing I wanted to learn was simply editing a video - i.e. "snipping" sections out of the middle. It seems like a very basic and easy thing to do, but I don't know how and was hoping to be shown that here. Do you have another video that shows this?

There isn't a save option under "file" like with everything else on a Mac. help.
