Hi, I need a good a good video/tutorial or anything descriptive, to help me with What OBS Settings I should use. First, I need to know good settings for recording a first person game leaning more on the performance and less lag side than quality, but not horrendous quality. I am recording Minecraft if that helps. Second, I need good settings for recording my desktop for tutorials, that will involve downloading, installing, testing, and browsing. This time, settings need to be leaning more torwards quality, but not extreme lag, and skipping frames. I have an hp computer packed with intel core i3, 6G RAM, and intel HD graphics. It is running windows 8.1, and has 750 GB of hardrive space(i am only using 43GB). Please help ASAP!! :D
 
Hi, I am (or at least want to) record a few first person shooter games. *PLEASE SEE THIS LINK TO HELP ME WITH SETTINGS ISSUES!!!: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/good-obs-settings.32822/#post-151285 * The game that is not working is Minecraft. My laptop resolution is 1366x768, so I just set the resolution to monitor. However, when I try to record Minecraft in full screen, there is a black backround that minecraft is not taking up. I notice this happens with games, but not Monitor capture. Should I just switch to monitor capture and capture Minecraft? Or does game capture give the game certain performance boosts, or something of the sort?? Please help!!! (also check out the link above, because I am a noob and have no idea what settings I shoud have) Thanks! :D
 
For recording you can simply follow our guide, works for the game and your desktop:
How to make high quality local recordings
In most cases on a laptop, stay at 30fps and test with that first, then you could try 60. Oh and gamecapture should be best. Make sure Minecraft also runs at your desktop resolution, then you should get no black border.
 
Ok, Thats good, but isn't having a higher fps always good? And is that good for both monitor and game capture? Also, I am looking for more performance for minecraft than quality. If you can send another link or send screenshots I would be grateful
