DaVinci indeed has issues with malformed MP4. Recently I solved by passing the malformed MP4 into HandBrake. THen imported into DaVinci it worked.

Hello,
I'm struggling a bit with the replay buffer compatibility. I typically stream while running the replay buffer so I can have a recording of whatever moment I want saved. I'd like to have one with my face cam and stream overlays, and one with just the game footage. However, whenever I enable the "replay buffer" in the source record filter, it doesn't really seem to do anything. I still just get a massive recording of the entire stream without my overlays and face cam, when I just want what my replay buffer captured without the face cam and overlays. I've set up a hot key to save the replay as well, but when I press it, nothing happens.
Maybe I'm missing something, but any help would be appreciated.

K, apparently you can't delete or edit messages after 10 minutes lol. I figured out what I was doing wrong here.

Hey all. Im trying to get the replay buffer to work using Source record but everytime i hit my record hotkey I just get a recording from that moment. Is there anyone here who has replay buffer working for them and can please help me to set it up?

Not for the moment in time. HOwever in the next days another interview should be delivered to me with the new version of the plugin, and I will check for it.

Windows 11 - OBS 31.0.0 - Source Record 0.4.4
Trying to run this filter on a source that is a video in a pop-out, a picture-in-picture window. When the video ends, the pop-out window disappears, as expected, but this filter dies. It leaves a 0 byte output file, and leaves OBS hanging in the background with a stalled obs-ffmpeg-mux.exe process. On next startup of OBS I get the message that it crashed on close last time.
I'm not a developer, but maybe this issue could be resolved if when the picture-in-picture window ends, it could trigger a graceful close of the filter to write the recorded file.

As described above, when recording a picture-in-picture window, if the video in the pop-out window ends, OBS freezes and the recording leaves a 0 byte file. I was previously unable to get a crash log, but this time it gave me the option to save the log.

Hello,
I am currently testing the feature to record "All Audio" tracks. My test case in OBS is set up as follows:
Is there currently a known bug related to this?
My goal is to have at least Tracks 3, 4, 5, and 6 available separately for editing.
I’d be very grateful for any tips.
Best regards

Having a problem with source record where it's corrupting my main recording. I had to uninstall it because it kept corrupting my main .mkv file which I still wanted. How can I fix this?

Using this plugin has developed into a love-hate relationship. I'm not sure why, but when OBS 31 released and I upgraded to plugin version 4.4, instability issues crept in. I didn't have time to investigate the sources so I rolled back to the most stable versions for me. Since there are so many sources for conflicts on a Windows platform, I ended up using OBS 30.2.3 and Source Record 3.4.
When the plugin works, it's awesome. I stream ice hockey games and this plugin awesome for using with cameras placed behind the goal nets. The issue that develops is after some time (~10 minutes), there's no response to the Hotkey command when triggered from the Streamdeck to perform the recording function.
I also will shut off the filter and turn them back on, but that seems to have no effect.
I'm curious if there's a setting or another plugin/LUA script I should have?

I record 2 sources, 1 webcam, 1 desktop. Desktop stops with 4 minutes earlier. Any idea why this could happen?

I guess the preset quality 7 is too high to use it at the same time while recording 2 sources. Lowering it to p5 on both sources seems to fix the issue. I thought that this source plugin doesn't affect the performance while recording, but it is clearly more demanding than recording only one source.

@Exeldro any chance that you will incorporate the ability to record multiple audio tracks with Source Record? My OBS main recording has 3 audio tracks but the Source Record only has one. The only audio/video track I use from my OBS recording is track 1 (Gameplay audio) and track 2 (discord audio).

Was looking for a way to do this and found a work around. Create a folder group with the sources you want to be source recorded, make a color source of your choosing, #ff00ff00 is typical chroma green, and put it at the very bottom within the folder. Make sure that the source record plugin is set on the folder and not on the sources in the folder. Now, instead of a black box you have chroma green which can be easily keyed out in the video editor of your choice.
The way I use this, I have a 2 PC streaming setup where I can record "clean" footage on the first PC and have all of my overlays on a second PC that get streamed out. I wanted to start incorporating the live chat on my "clean" footage but didn't want it to always be there.
On my first PC I setup the browser source for chat in its own scene and setup the grouping and source record as I described above. Now I have a clean way to pull chat into my clean footage when I want with fully transparent backgrounds with a simple chroma key in post.
Hope that helps!
