Ara I have recently downloaded OBS, and have streamed my webcam and images. Unfortunately I cannot get LOTRO to stream! I have opened OBS before loading lotro, made sure the resolution and bitrate is okay – followed the tutorial step by step, and it's just showing as black 🙁
Ara, I have a question for whenever you're available: When multiboxing, how do we force OBS to record from one of the several lotroclient.exe instances, if at all possible? It seems to be favouring the very first one launched.
Background: Trying to record a piece of mine from the perspective of one instance while 3 others are playing. I may have to launch the watching one first and the players afterwards…
TIA!
I'm having issues playing in 1440 resolution and getting OBS to recognize the game window. It works only when I'm doing desktop capture. Any advice besides scaling my game resolution down to 1080?
Thanks Ara! I made my first recording to showcase some places as depicted in LOTRO to the friends with whom we've been reading and discussing The Hobbit 🙂
Thanks, dude
What are the pros of OBS Studio over normal OBS?
I love the Nightwish you had in the audio clip! Great video in all! Loved it, keep up the great work!
