base canvas

Out of curiosity, and to ensure I minimize the amount of post-production work I have to do, when broadcasting and/or recording using OBS, am I correct is saying that the ONLY output from OBS is what appears within the confines of the Canvas window? Irrespective of resolutions chosen? There's no...

Hey there! Thanks in advance for any feedback or support! I have a dual stream set-up Elgato 4k 60 Mk 2 Capture card in the stream PC. Im currently at 2160p resolution at 144 refresh rate on my gaming monitor. The 4k capture software is taking in 2160p 59 fps. In OBS I am working currently...

I usually use obs for virtual cam on zoom and change the canvas scale ratio into 1080:1920 so it become potrait. But after i have the update on last october, it can’t work any more. I have been trying to change the canvas into 1080x1920 but it doesn’t work. When i open the zoom it still 16:9...

I mean this as more of like a technical question... not just like a... once upon a time in a YouTube video some guy said said always use my desktop resolution so that's the end solution. I have a 3440x1440 ultrawide monitor, but I basically never stream at the 3440x1440 native resolution. I...

When I try to add Video Capture Device with Elgato 4k60 Pro MK.2, OBS does not recognize it's source resolution and only adding 1080p capture on canvas. I changed canvas/output size to 1440 with custom resolution (my stream's pc monitor is on 1080p monitor). I've tried reinstalling everything...

So today I updated to the 27 release of OBS and now all of my transitions are appearing at the wrong resolution. I use 2560x1440 Base Canvas and a 1920x1080 Output Scaled Resolution. Until today my transitions worked properly however now they are appearing to small. (I believe they're appearing...

So, say, I'm trying to capture a specific area of the display. I don't want to have black bars on the sides (or top and bottom): What I would currently have to do is go here: Then calculate 1200 - 100 - 100 and 1920 - 1500 - 220, then go to Settings and enter the resultant values here: Then...

I would appreciate guidance in the use of OBS Studio from users that have worked with it. I am using an AV to USB 2.0 Video Capture Device Source to transfer Video 8 to digital video. Planned workflow is to capture entire cassette in a single file using OBS at the best possible quality. After...

I have two monitors, one has an aspect ratio of 5:4 and the other one is 16:10, and I was wondering if there is a way to change the canvas resolution or something so the video output will look ok when I change the scene from a monitor to the other without stopping the stream/recording...

Hey there! I've got a question regarding quality while recording with OBS, maybe it is stupid, but I couldn't find an answer on google or here in the forum. Generally I am recording in 1920x1080 (Base and Output Resolution), yesterday I've read that recording in 2560x1440 is way better than...

How can that happen??

I used to have slight framedrops when doing scenes transitions. Mostly 4 or 5 frames for 4 seconds aprox. Today when streaming i had an encoder overload message at the bottom left of the obs window... So i stopped the stream. i'll include my last log file in hope that somebody can help ...

So my screen resolution is 1360×768 otherwise i get black bars on both sides but when i punch in the same resolution on OBS i get those nasty bars at the bottom and on the right. I don't understand why they match but apparently they don't, and i can't seem to be able to get any kind of...

I want to record my webcam and my display separately (so I can edit them later), but when I change the base canvas size OBS does not want to start downloading. Here you can see that OBS is recording with a 1920x1080 base canvas size. And here we see that OBS fails to record with a larger base...

I have been using OBS for a few months now for streaming our church services. I know there is some better things that can be done to help fix the quality issues. I need some help. I am located in the northeast Ohio area, or could use some help through teamviewer. Right now I do only have a SD...
