Hey y'all,

I start using OBS to capture presentations. Attached I got a background image to illustrate it. The big grey box holds the capture presenters laptop, the small one a webcame showing the presenter.
Worked quite nice so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-6v6gMOyKc

What I am missing is a way to display only the presenters screen (capture via USB3HDCAP) on a second screen hooked to the capturing computer.
Basically having a small (10" screen) to show the complete scene, recording the scene as video (to upload it to youtube) and displaying the presentation on the projector attached to the OBS device.

Couldn't find a hint how to set it up like this.

Thanks for this wonderful piece of open-source software!

OBs can "project" what you see in the preview window to a display that does not contain OBS on it. to do this, right click on the preview window and click project then select the screen. Again, the one greyed out will be the one that OBS is currently being displayed on

Cool, I'll have a look into that. I thought that it should be already possible...

Thx!
