Go from Zoom to YouTube Using OBS

[Gryphonator]

I would like to know what are the best settings for OBS when using Zoom to capture only the screen with the videos (including using the Gallery and Speaker views and the Spotlights). The Zoom would go to YouTube using OBS, but I want to make sure I don't see the Chat or Participants side of the Zoom Window in the stream to YouTube; but still be able to use both for messages to viewers in Zoom and to control the Participants in the Zoom room. Hopefully someone has done this before and can assist. Thank you very much.

I'm not completely visualizing what you're going for, but it sounds like you might want to Window-Capture Zoom, crop it in OBS, and stream that to YouTube?

That only works if Zoom stays the same size as it was when you set it up, so you'll have to make sure of that. Likewise if you use a Display- or Screen-Capture to do the same thing.
