Question / Help Need help with recording binds

[BigboiBluewolfy]

Hi, I am new to OBS Studio, And I want some Start/Stop Recording binds for OBS Studio, I know how to change them, but I do not know ones that would work with games that I play (Like ROBLOX, Beamng drive, Amazing Frog etc.) All suggestions will be appreciated, thank you, everybody, who helps.

For the hotkey combinations, its best to use modifier keys like (CTRL, ALT, Fn) that are not used in your applications/games. This, to avoid overlap and accidentally typing those in while your stream is live. So for example, a key combination like CTRL+ALT+F1 to start and CTRL+ALT+F2 to stop would be a good combination. Make them physically difficult to type.

Rather than press the keyboard to start and stop OBS, I would recommend getting an Elgato Stream Deck instead. With Stream Deck, you can setup the buttons to be hot keys and see them with custom icon you assign. This makes it more visually intuitive and easier to get at.
