OBS Studio is free and open-source screen recording and live streaming software used to capture, mix, record and stream video. It lets creators combine sources such as displays, application windows, games, webcams, images, text and audio into scenes for a recording or live production.
It is used by streamers, educators, presenters, podcasters and people who need flexible desktop recording tools. Its workflow is built around scenes, sources, audio controls, transitions and output settings.
Understand the core tools that make OBS useful for recording, streaming and building multi-source video productions.
Combine screen, window, game, camera and audio sources in a single production layout.
Arrange different source layouts as scenes and switch between them using transitions.
Monitor audio levels and configure per-source controls and supported filters.
Adjust recording, streaming, video, audio and other settings to suit your workflow.
Preview and prepare a scene before sending it to the live output.
Extend OBS with compatible community plugins and scripts from trusted sources.
The OBS workspace is made up of docks that help you control a production. The exact layout can be rearranged, so panels may appear in different positions depending on your setup.

OBS performance depends on the operating system, capture resolution, frame rate, encoder, scenes and workload. Check the official requirements before choosing settings.
Confirm the supported Windows, macOS or Linux version on the current OBS download and help pages.
Encoding and real-time compositing can be demanding. Hardware encoder availability and GPU drivers matter.
Allow sufficient memory for OBS and other running applications. Recording files require free disk space.
We do not publish one universal minimum hardware specification because actual performance depends on the production workload and supported encoders.
Use this general checklist, then follow the platform-specific instructions for your operating system.
Go directly to obsproject.com/download and select your operating system.
Check the operating system, processor architecture and available installer options.
Do not use repackaged installers or download mirrors you cannot verify.
Follow the installation prompts or the official Linux distribution instructions.
Review the first-run setup and grant only the permissions needed for your workflow.
Check your display capture, microphone, audio levels and output folder before a long session.
For a basic screen recording, create a scene, add the appropriate display or window capture source, check your audio devices and choose a recording format and location in Output settings.
Streaming requires a supported destination, a stable connection and output settings suited to your hardware and platform. Add and test your sources before going live.
Start with a stable configuration, test changes one at a time and adjust based on the result you need.
Set canvas resolution, output resolution and frame rate based on your content and system capability.
Choose devices, sample rate and channel options, then test for clipping and unwanted noise.
Configure recording paths, formats, encoders and streaming output options.
Set keyboard shortcuts for common actions such as switching scenes and starting recordings.
Review advanced options only when you understand how they affect your workflow.
Keep separate configurations and scene layouts for different recording or streaming projects.
Plugins and scripts can add functionality to OBS, but they are third-party components and may have their own compatibility, maintenance and security considerations.
Start with the symptom, check the relevant source or setting, and change one thing at a time so you can identify the cause.
Check the selected capture source, application permissions, GPU configuration and capture method.
Verify the selected input device, mute state, operating-system permissions and audio meters.
Reduce output load, check encoder settings and review CPU or GPU utilization.
Separate network-related dropped frames from rendering or encoding lag before troubleshooting.
Check recent changes, plugins, system compatibility and official support resources.
Check the output path, free disk space, file format, permissions and encoder status.
Check the official project channels for current release announcements, hotfixes, compatibility changes and release notes.
