How to continuously record in different files?

[Michel_S82]

Hello all,

I’m brand bew to OBS and tried to find the answer in the forum but couldn’t figure it out.
I’m recording my birdhouse nest with OBS, but how can I continously record and make it different files? So that after 30 days I don’t end up with a single 250gb file. Is there a way to limit the recording to, for example 24h, and then auto start a new recording?
Hopefully I posted this in the correct section of the forum.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Michel

There is no built in functionality for this. A quick search gave this lua plugin:

OBS Lua - AutoSplitter

A simple lua script which splits recordings at a specific interval. This script was inspired by https://github.com/ifumiya/AutoSplitter View the source code at GitHub: https://github.com/lhns/obs-autosplitter
