Hi

I have a Mac with 3 external monitors - 3840x2160. I have used the auto configuration wizard and set up my

I can display capture each monitor but I can not set the size down to 1920 x 1060.

Therefore do use instead Image or window capture for each separate 32 inch monitor I have?

Then I wish go into settings and expand 1920 width to 5760 to record all three monitors I can not do this.

Are there any solutions please?

Mac has Big Sur with parrallels and Obs latest version in windows 10.

Cheers

Display Capture is last resort. You should build your scenes with Window/Game/Video Device Capture etc.
OBS appears to have a limit of 9999x9999 for the canvas. You can manually resize sources by right clicking on them, Transform, Edit transform...

If you have an Intel Mac, just dual boot to Windows 10 or try using the Mac version of OBS.

Hi
Thankyou this has worked. I used window capture.
I have all screens in order. 3 of them 1920 x 1060 - 5760 x 1060.
The output is 5760x1060 - on play back how does one increase parts of the video to look at specific sections on playback?

The cpu usage is 48% which is high for three windows.
The cpu usage is 18% which is high for one window.
How can I lower the cpu usage?
I am using a fly file type also. Video bitrate 2500, encoder x264, recording quality high quality medium size file.

I am recording my trading software as I trade live each night.
