Hello, I'm accidentally pressing "Start Virtual Camera" instead of 'Start Recording" button and I lost recordings of my timelapse of working. So I wonder if there is an option to edit Ul and change the color of Start Recording button to a differnet Hue (reddish for example). Or show an indicator...

Updated to 30.0.2 and now my audio mixer looks like this: Using the System theme... and it looks like switching to the other theme does not fix it. (I first noticed it on my brother's computer... and it won't let him switch back to System. I know why.)

I conducted a cognitive walkthrough in order to see if a new user could accomplish a simple task that the software was made to accomplish. Through this cognitive walkthrough, I gained valuable insight on the UI of OBS and thought that there could be some improvements. Specifically in the create...

The entire bottom part of OBS Studio has become much larger due to excessive padding, cannibalizing the space for the preview area. Fonts are too large, buttons are way too large. When I shrink the window as small as it can shrink, the controls are too small. I am on a 1440p screen using Windows...

hello there, The issue that I have is whenever I move my obs from one monitor to another, the preview takes most of my obs window. Which is something that I do not want. I want the layout to stay the way it is. I do have monitors of different sizes but this is not the issue as other apps...

I think it would help immensely if there were such thing as "Studio Scenes"; scenes that, when added/tagged, are not meant to be switched to or be part of the live broadcast but rather are treated like "sub" scenes or nested comps in After Effects. Clicking on one of these scenes won't switch...

I'm having some issues using OBS in 4K resolution. Web based windows (twitch docks) behave strangely. I tried to explain the situation in the images below. This is what it looks like in 1080p: And this is what it looks like in 4K: Is this a known bug? Can someone help me with this? Log...

I'm trying to help another user on this computer set up OBS for streaming, but it looks completely different and the canvas isn't "set" the way mine is. The whole UI looks different, in fact. They'd screwed around with some settings before I came in to help (forever ago) so that could be part of...

In usual cases, people don't change their stream keys periodically like "Yo, you already have profiles, you don't need this feature". But today, I finally found an unorthodox workflow to live stream. This is prior to live streaming to Instagram RTMPs. (No, not like yellowduck, they charge you...

Testing the new 27.0.1 for Windows 64 bit (Mac version too), as we're excited about new features. But we may have found an undocumented (as far as I can find) behavior change in the UI with Slideshows. We use groupings of images in slideshows quite frequently. So, any given slideshow might...

Hi! I have a really weird problem with recording Unity build in OBS. The game runs in 16:9 aspect ratio and everything looks great during the gameplay. But on the recorded movie game's User Interface looks broken, buttons are in different positions etc. In the video it looks like the game was...

My mixing "handle" heads are gone, is this a new update? It makes very difficult for me to find the tiny little line that is the fader, attaching pics. I have this issue all around where a handle needs to be there. Anybody with the same issue or that got that fixed? Appreciate the help!

Hello, As the title states, screen readers like NVDA, Narrator and JAWS fail to read some menu items in some context menus of OBS Studio. The one noticed is the context menu for a source in the list of sources in the main window of OBS Studio, but I don't know if it is the only one that is...

Hello, Another accessibility issue report. In some windows of OBS Studio, there are some buttons, which are not visible, if the theme used in Windows is the high-contrast black one. Steps to reproduce it: 1. Enable high-contrast mode in Windows 10, by doing the following: 1.1. Open Windows...

Dear forum, I use plenty of hotkeys for switching scenes or visibilities of sources. This works like a charm especially in combination with a script which hijacks for example my keyboards' num pad. So far so good. As the key pad run out of keys a while ago, I want to use the standard function...

Hi there, I've used OBS studio extensively in both Windows and Linux environments. I have a 4k monitor, which I do not scale up, because my monitor is very large. I think the addition of the option to change UI font sizes in the general settings of OBS would be a huge improvement. It would...
