We want to use some settings not available in simple mode, so use the Output Mode dropdown list at the top to select Advanced instead. By default, your output settings will be in Simple mode and look like this: Advanced Output Mode The output settings are where you determine what kind of video file you end up with. I typically use 30fps (30 frames per second is usually enough for most needs). Make sure it fits the framerate you want to edit and output your final video at. The other options are more suited to live streaming.įinally, you'll need to set your FPS, or frames-per-second. For recorded video production it's best to choose Lanzos, as this will give you the best quality. If you do choose to downscale you'll need to be careful of which downscale filter you use.

If you set it to be smaller OBS will downscale your capture on the fly, allowing you to capture a 'full HD' 1080p (1920 pixels by 1080 pixels) screen and output it to 720p (1280x720), for example.

To get started, open the settings panel by clicking the Settings button at the bottom right of the interface: 2. Feel free to adjust them to your tastes, but please don't spend all day pulling your hair out to get the settings just-so. The video and output settings I've arrived at, which we'll cover below, are for stable, good-quality, low-file-size video creation. The video has to look good, too: settings should create a balance between video image quality and file size. I found certain combinations of settings were more likely to cause stability issues, while others were rock solid. My experience with OBS has been that, once you get it set up, it's incredible, but that it can be a little temperamental getting to that point.
