It will also capture your audio settings in exactly the same way. This includes overlays, alerts, and streamlabels. The record feature will capture everything that would be visible to your stream viewers. This is highlighted within the two red squares above. The record button will record everything inside your stream preview box.
To end your recording simply click the button again and it will return to its grey state. You’ll know that you are recording when your ‘REC’ button turns from grey to red and it will also display the amount of time you have been live to the left of the button. This is your record button and will initiate your recording once clicked. The eagle-eyed among you will notice that below to ‘Start Streaming’ in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen is a Start Recording button below. If your screen is largely static, or if you use a lower output resolution, you can opt for a lower bitrate to save space on your hard drive.Due to OBS being predominantly a streaming software, it’s not immediately obvious how to record locally or even that the feature exists! If you have a lot of fast moving objects or fast changing colors to record, you might want to choose a higher bitrate. In our example of a basic 1920x1080 screen recording, 8000Kbps usually gives a good balance between video quality and file size. Check the Video Codecs page for more info on choosing your bitrate. The downside is a potentially larger file size. CBR is best in most cases, because it ensures the video can be recorded and played back at a consistent bitrate, making it less likely to cause performance drops. As the warning on the screen when selecting mp4 suggests, recording as MKV has the benefit of being able to recover the video in case of a crash. Otherwise, if you just want to be able to playback the recording in a media player like VLC or MPC, you can choose to record as MKV. Mp4 works well if you intend to edit your recording, or use it as stimulus material in Python or Presentation right away.
