Question / Help How to stream and record using obs

[JemrainO_o]

Hello everyone,

I have been using obs for a while now while streaming or recording but always i had big block boxes showing when streaming and its starting to get annoying. If anyone knows how to fix this annoying black boxes please let me know

I have tried expanding the game recording so it looked bigger but i could not actually make it full screen without the black boxes around it.

Kind regards,
Jermain

Post your logfile from the help menu. the only way to avoide black boxes is to record and play at 16:9 aspect ratio.

Ok i will try that :) Do i have to set that 16:9 ratio in obs itself ?

your game needs to be running at your native 1920x1080 resolution. if it isn't then there could be black boxes. you might try rebuilding your game capture as well for good measure.

I changed te resolution to 1920*1017 will then the recroding still be in 1920*1080 size on youtube ?

 

[JemrainO_o]

Or will there then be black boxes in the recording ?

No. leave the resolution alone. send me the link to the youtube video if you will.

I have not uploaded it to youtube but chaning the resolution to 1920*1017 did seem to work for the program
It did show as filled

Because i really need those black boxes removed no matter what so if you know how to please tell me

the problem is when you upload to youtube, it will change the aspect ratio to 16:9

I found a fix when i play mc on 825*513 it changes it on obs to 16:9 ratio so everything will be full screen :D And the quality is fixed too :D
