Source Record 0.4.5

facing weird issue lately .. not sure if its only with 28.0.1 or all .. didnt test yet ..
when i enable source record eyeball to active it and start recording it stuck .. shows recording but not recording or making any output files .. and when i click stop record it stuck untill i end task totally .. but working well when i turn off source record filter .. any help ?

I used in past but awful now some reason it closed my games now even though didn't have issue before and change anything. Only issue before was audio sync but I was able to fix each time in editing software.

So far I have downloaded it and installed it into the right folder I would like to say over 10 times now. I love the concept and would love to have this work properly for me. But even before I updated my obs version the plugin still wasn't working. If the plugin can be updated to 27.2.4 that would be wonderful. But so far sense I have no way of directly telling if it is (because in the overview it only shows the plugin version and not the version compatibility) I won't be able to use it. If I could have help figuring out why it won't show up, that would be great. If it's just the version compatibility then I will just have to hope the creators can update it soon enough.

I like to use this amazing plugin, but in reality it is limitedly useful, because each grab have a lot of audible "cracks", and this never changes, despite of trying every possible configuration, even in the resetted config. (Meanwhile, the main Recording has no crack at all)

I would suggest:
- To heal this bug.
- to create an option "Record and break", and another "Record (no break)" because it keeps recording while the main recording is on pause... So the duration of the source recorded file is different and this is a big problem, it makes very difficult to edit!
- To create an option "Audio Only" (just to capture the original sound and minimize GPU use and Disk space.
Notice that my OBS has crashed by shutting down OBS after installation of the Plugin.

But the idea of this plugin ist really fantastic, and I encourage the author to make these revisions! thank you a lot for all the other plugins, especially Audio Monitor, my preferred Plugin!

Thank you a lot!

Hello, I have been using this plugin for the better part of a year. It took a bit to get used to and actually get things optimized for the setup i'm running, but it works great. There were some issue at the start with obs crashes and it not recording properly but I've solve the problems. Make sure to not use on game capture, instead use on a group with a set resolution and with the game capture plus whatever other game sources you use. I do the same thing for my camera. This is an excellent way for me to upgrade my videos and how I make them.

It's a really great plugin. Thanks to this, when I record on two monitors, I can separate the video from both monitors and record them directly without a separate editing program.

This is what OBS Recording should be.

I created an OBS account just to review this plugin. I was super excited to use it, and after playing around with it, it seemed like it would work well.

Unfortunately, after over 8 hours of recording, the file got corrupted. I paid money to use repair software to recover it, and after some time managed to recover the video...only to find that all of the gameplay footage is pixelated beyond belief. Testing it out, this is not an issue with recovery--all of my gameplay video comes out pixelated when using this plugin. Tons of time and money wasted.

I used this plugin to capture raw game footage across four sessions, and the second and fourth recordings are completely corrupted and impossible to view. The half that works has poor picture quality compared to the source and the vanilla OBS recording I made alongside it. A great concept that's too unstable to trust.

hallo, this is a good plugin. if you guys find any issue like :
1. OBS crashes when close the app after installing this pluing = close the games first then close the OBS (in this case I've using source record in game capture)
2. when you can find hot key to activate replay buffer for source record = make sure to close the OBS, then launch the game, open the OBS and set game capture to capture the game u want to stream or record then close the game first and now the OBS, and launch the game again following OBS, then bind the hotkey for replay buffer of Source record.
3. if u facing encoder overload try to use HEVC encoder in source record to capture and let the H264 for stream.

and that's it. follow my twitch: twitcht.tv/kuebastard

So I really like source record the only thing I noticed that the recording does kind of bug out after a while using game capture I hope there is a fix for this soon. It would also be nice to have a plugin with OBS like replay buffer to toggle the source recording on and off.

1. Could the plugin not overwrite files? (number filenames like OBS)
2. Where can I find saved replays from the source?

For me, the idea is brilliant.
Sometimes OBS crashes when I close it.

Loving this plugin, VERY useful. Wanted to add that after doing some testing with 3 display captures & a webcam recording that I did manage to get Hardware NVENC H264 to work as long as I used Virtual Cam as the activator. Haven't tested with stream as the option but it does indeed fail if recording is the activating choice. I suspect the encoder doesn't want to share if OBS is also using it at the same time that the source recorder is. The performance and quality with hardware working is incredible. I barely hit 1-3% on the CPU. Amazing difference compared to other encoding options.

I rate this 5 stars because I feel that, otherwise, I would be ungrateful since this is a so much needed feature in OBS, and I can only but be absolutely thankful to Exeldro for providing it.

Still, I have a very annoying issue - I'm trying to conduct an interview with a guest (recording both sources, which are provided through vdo.ninja), and for some reason, the guest's video and audio get progressively out of sync (audio drifting). I suspect that the reason might be that I listen to the guest's audio through OBS output monitoring - not 100% sure but it's the only difference between their recording (which has audio drift) and mine (which doesn't).

Thanks for this plugin, I just wish there was some way to ensure audio/video are in sync, because this is not just a fixed delay, it keeps increasing throughout the video and is a pain to fix.

This has made my life a lot easier since having two OBSes takes a lot of CPU. It works very well except for that it doesn't split recordings like the main OBS (Which I also have to use if I want to record other tracks)

The weird thing is exactly once it split files like OBS did and I have no idea what changed for that. Also: make sure you're not lazy and leave lower layers that you record alternate raw sources visible... twice the files just one is black screen LOL

I think if the plugin could record multiple tracks and could split files it'd be perfect (smaller files are easier to transcode/edit if you're curious why I don't want 1-5 hour videos) very happy with this plugin so far tho.

The only real solution right now is to remember to stop/start record, but I have terrible memory XDDD

This is a sorely needed plugin. But problem is that source record videos are sped up and not in sync with the main OBS video recording. So it really makes it kind of useless. I hope this will be addressed soon.

Hey, unfortunately I can't get the plugin working on the most recent version of OBS. The filter is not showing up at all in the scenes after using both windows install methods.

Excelente

Absolutely brilliant, have been using this for since 0.3.0. No problems.

QUESTION, is it possible to DISABLE the recording of the audio track? I don't need it and I just choose to record no audio but I still get an empty audio track when replaying.
Thanks once again for the excellent work.

It worked until I added the GoXLR mini to my system.

Now, the second I add "Source Record" filter to any source, the Music channel starts glitching and goes silent. Removing the Source Record filter or exiting OBS fixes the problem. Or even if I toggle visibility of the plugin ("eye" icon) my music cuts in/out.

I've tried the "Different audio track" option with all possible values and same results, same with hardware/software encoding. The second I add the plugin my audio gets messed up.
