Is there any way to record a window capture while using scenes while said window isn't in view.

Hello forum! Long-time OBS user, first-time poster.

I recently ran into a bit of a dilemma. I've been trying to make a funny Omegle reactions type of video but with my green screen which is primarily set up for streaming. I must add that I use my green screen to superimpose myself into various full-scene backgrounds, which when looking back in my recordings I realized that I won't be capturing their reactions when I do my scenes that take up the full screen. Is there any way to capture an inactive scene or would I have to use an alternate program for recording while I run things through OBS? Any help is appreciated!

The feature available through the plugin: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/source-record.1285/
Two encoders will run, two files will be generated. Device shouldn't be disabled when inactive. Don't forget to set the Record Mode inside this filter and add some letters to the end of the filename to make easier to find your standalone recordings.

By the way, you asked in the wrong section of the forum. The right thread for general questions is here (Windows platform): https://obsproject.com/forum/list/windows-support.32/

Thanks for the help and heads up! I’ll look into learning source record and post in the right place next time ,:D
