OBS visual REC/PAUSE/STOP indicator!

[JohnKuhles]

Hitting record or pause or stop, I don't get any indication whether it's recording/pausing/stopping or not? With a green/red on/off indicator of some sort in the upper or down right corner! ... How long must we wait to have an OBS visual REC/PAUSE/STOP indicator?

Does it only work for streaming? ... Can it be visual without being captured for the destination file? ... Where in the OBS v30.0.0 settings can I find it?

Is there any YouTube video showing how to do it step by step?

That screenshot is recording. You can see both indicators there, along with a few other things.

No need for a tutorial. Just play with it and look at it. You should get it almost immediately.
