OBS - Premiere Pro

Hello! I recorded my videos through OBS and saved them to my computer as an mp4. It sounds fine when I preview the file from my Video Player, but when I import them into Adobe Premiere the audio sounds very strange and with some noises. The issue seems to be with the OBS export, as other files from different sources sound perfectly fine in Premiere. I have the newest version of OBS and Adobe Premiere. What should i do to fix this issue? :)

you are not the first to ask this (though Its been years, iirc)
so start by searching this forum on Premier Pro

Hopefully you are recording to MKV, and remuxing to MP4 afterwards. if not, go fix that

The issue is an incompatibility between OBS's assumption and Adobe's. The fact that your video player can play the file fine indicates it isn't necessarily OBS' fault. My recollection (which could easily be wrong, as I'm under the weather/foggy brain at the moment) was something Adobe addressed on their end

IF you still wish assistance, be sure to follow pinned post tin this forum regarding posting your OBS Studio log from a Recording/Streaming session

You might try a different editor. Here's a good free one:

I've seen paid stuff (including their free trials or limited-use-forever versions) do things that are clearly non-standard while continuing to call it standard.

A well-known DAW, for example, saves WAV files that nobody else can play because the file header is missing some critical information. But it can play its own files just fine because it knows what that information is. I wonder if it's trying to keep its non-technical-artist users locked in by making them think that everyone else is comically broken, can't even do something dirt-simple like playing a WAV file!

Anyway, see if free and open-source stuff works with other, unrelated free and open-source stuff. If it does, it's probably the proprietary thing that's wrong. The "unrelated" part means that both open-source apps must use the established standards correctly in order to work together.

Read and follow directions and recommendations on the analyzer.
After doing all this, test again. If it goes well, your done, if not, post a new log file of the failed test attemp.

Anyway, if you don't update Windows 10 to it's latest version, you're stuck.
