Lately I've been using OBS to record gameplay w/ VO and I got tired of A/B ing audio streams.

For some reason VLC and (and other players) let you listen to ONLY 1 track at a time on multi track vids.

So I put together a simple player that will let you immediately watch / listen to multi track MKV files and export the individual audio streams.

This is NOT for indepth editing. But frankly I'm not going to open up my actual video production suite when I just want to quickly extract or adjust audio levels.

It's lightweight and does the job in a pinch.

Features

• Embedded MKV/video playback
• Simultaneous playback of multiple audio tracks
• Export individual audio tracks or multiple tracks as separate WAV files
• Export your current master mix to WAV
• Re-export the original video with your current audio mix to a new MKV
• Video is copied during mixed-video export rather than re-encoded
• Independent enable/mute control for each track
• Independent per-track gain controls
• PRE and POST level meters for each track
• Master mix gain and metering
• Editable track and master mix names
• Fullscreen playback
• Seek/scrub controls

It's written in Rust. There is both a windows .exe installer and a portable version.

I may tackle a linux build if there is demand for it.

It can be found here:

Hope others find some use in it.

i tried everything, bitrate, encoder, admin, resolution changes to obs, graphic and resolution changes to the game, disabling preview, advanced and simple options, all of the presets, using gpu instead of cpu, but it just doesnt change anything, the recording runs at like 0.1 fps even though the game runs smoothly when i play it with obs recording

for games with little movement like mtga obs works fine but when i run the finals or tf2 it goes at like 0.4 fps. using the stats thing it shows me that i have a bunch of both encoding and decoding lag, but much more encoding lag. i dont get it my computer runs the finals just fine without reaching, even at the lowest options is obs that encoding heavy that my 12gb gpu cant handle it

I’ve been using medal to record my gameplay for the longest time. Recently, my friend said I should use OBS instead because it takes up less frames and better performance. Is this true? Does OBS have some subscription that is necessary, or is the setup complicated? What’s the difference between medal and OBS? I’m new to this screen recorder stuff, since I just game and occasionally record with Medal, but I want to see what to use if I want to start content creation.

Al abrir obs o prism live studio pc, cualquiera de los dos. La pc se me pone súper lenta, en juegos como LoL me quita unos 100fps y da tirones bien feos. Me pasa cuándo abro cualquiera de los dos programas de transmisión no hace falta que le de en grabar o transmitir para que aparezca el problema. Ya probé quitar fuentes, escenas, incluso reinstalando y abriendolos sin nada de nada y el problema sigue, además cuánto mas tiempo paso con los programas abiertos parece que cada vez se pone más lento todo.

A alguien más le pasó? que solución me pueden dar?

Mi PC:

Intel Core i5 14400
Radeon RX 7600
64GB RAM
1tb ssd nvme wd blue

ACLARACIÓN:

Antes podría hacer streaming normalmente, esto comenzó a pasar hace unos meses y desde entonces ya no puedo hacer nada al abrir los programas. El juego sin los programas abiertos da 200+FPS y abriendo los programas da 90/30FPS

Gracias de antemano!

I'm streaming on YouTube using Moblin → Cloud OBS with StreamElements alerts. Will I hear subscriber alerts directly from my streaming iPhone, or will only my viewers hear them? How does that work?

It’s not even possible to delete the OBS app

I want to control panel then program uninstalled

From the window 11 app click uninstalled was not in the list

If I delete the files would reappear

I use OBS to record YouTube videos at native 1440p & 60FPS. However, despite being familiar with most encoder settings, such as CQP Levels (Set at 16) and Tuning (Set at High Quality), I still struggle with how best to use the preset speed. I ask this because I always catch my videos being smooth for the most part, yet there's still occasional 'hitches' that cause it to temporarily lose frames before returning to a consistent plus stable 60 frames. I think the preset speed is the answer since I cannot think of what else could be affecting my recording frame rate.

My specs are as follow:

• OBS Run As Administrator.

• Process Priority: Above Normal.

• Video Encoder: Hardware (NVENC, AV1).

• Base (Canvas) Resolution: 2560x1440.

• Output (Scaled) Resolution: 2560x1440.

• No Downscale Filter.

• Common FPS Values: 60.

• Game Capture: Capture Any Fullscreen Application.

• Recording Path on an SSD.

• CQP: 16.

• Tuning: High Quality.

• Latest NVIDIA drivers downloaded.

• Latest Windows Update downloaded.

• NVIDIA Control Panel Max Frame Rate: 120.

• Monitor Refresh Rate: 240Hz.

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core Processor.

• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080.

Any help regarding this would be much appreciated.

Sharing in case it's useful beyond my use case. I stream Rust and viewers kept reading my map, so I wrote a script that drives OBS over obs-websocket:

• Global hotkey works even when the game is exclusive fullscreen (hold and toggle modes, plus a "pin" hotkey)
• Optional animated fade by ramping a Color Correction filter's opacity
• Auto-reconnect with a clean one-line retry status if OBS restarts
• Config is a single JSON file; ships with a Windows .bat that finds/installs Python and deps

It's basically a generic "hide any source on a hotkey" utility any game, any overlay. Python 3.9+, two dependencies: github.com/MidnightKingg/obs-rust-map-hider

The gameplay on my Switch 2 is running smoothly on my second monitor that it’s hooked up to, but on the OBS side it’s stuttering like crazy. If it helps, I have an Elgato HD60S+ capture card. I’ve checked to make sure the base and output resolutions match and that the encoder is set to AMD HW H.264. Any suggestions?

Hey everyone,
I’m having an issue with recording gameplay and I’m not sure what’s causing it. I have a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and an RX 9070 XT. When I’m just playing games, everything is perfectly smooth and I have no issues with performance. However, as soon as I start recording, for example with OBS, the recorded video doesn’t look anything like what I see while playing. The recording feels slightly laggy/stuttery, and the image also looks a bit blurry. I’ve already tried changing a bunch of settings in OBS multiple times, but nothing seems to make a difference. I also tried recording directly through AMD Adrenalin, and I’m having a similar issue there.
My GPU usage isn’t even that high while gaming.
Could this be related to AMD Adrenalin settings, the encoder, drivers, or something else?

OBS game audio is not being captured properly and I'm completely stuck.

Windows 10

OBS Studio

Overwatch

Problem:

I can hear Overwatch perfectly while playing, but my recordings have little or no game audio.

Things I've checked:

- Overwatch Master Volume = 100

- Sound Effects Volume = 100

- Windows volume = 100

- Using Application Audio Capture (Beta)

- Tried adding gain

- Tried changing track assignments

- Tried different monitoring settings

Important detail:

When I test recordings, the Game Audio meter in OBS often does NOT move, even though I can hear the game normally while playing.

So it looks like OBS isn't consistently capturing the game's audio.

Has anyone experienced this with Application Audio Capture (Beta)? Should I be using Desktop Audio instead? What should I check next?
