Question / Help Can I use OBS to record audio (Skype, in game) when using capture card??

[crazychris4124]

I have an Avermedia Live Gamer Portable and I can only record in game audio which sucks when Im trying to do collaborations with other Youtubers since we usually use Skype or Steam chat. All I want to do is use the LGP to record video and maybe even in game audio while OBS records my Skype/Steam Chat

Then select the same audio output for Skype/TS/whatever you use as a voice chat and use the same output for your game sound. Then select it in OBS as your desktop audio source and be happy :-)

P.S. right now OBS can only grab one audio input (recording device in windows mixer) and one output (output devices listed in the windows mixer) - this is why you cant record your mic, your capture card AND the speaker/headphones output.
There is a rewrite coming and this will change, multiple audio inputs will work - once its done, you should be able to add your capture card and other audio sources at the same time.
