I never knew what audio ducking was. Thank you for this!!

[@MichaelFeyrerJr]

Glad to help.

[@Brad_Whitley]

I love the view of the side angle. It shows how much light you actually have and how beautiful your actual scene going out is. Nice job!

[@mr.bigmangames]

Nice One! Thank you! Just started Streaming and Letsplaying. Learning from you!

[@HayesWorldofMath]

This was great! Lots of good tidbits - the processing one is huge for me. Thanks!

[@IamKryptonite]

For the UI, you can also lock it in the Dock menu. A solid step up from the stock multiview is Durchblick, great plugin!

[@FullFrontalExposure]

Doing a binge on your content!! Thank you for all the great walk throughs on OBS!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!

[@grahamcalvert6031]

Brilliant video, didn't know about the dock stats stuff. That is going to be really handy.

[@garnetdacres1527]

Helpful. Thanks

[@caliplanes]

[@ItsMistZ]

[@couchnibblerhockey]

I'm a regular watcher (when I'm not still at work) of your Wednesday night live streams and occasionally ask questions under the name Tom Waddell. You've helped me out immensely over the past few years. Thank you for being on KZbin!

[@awdrog1]

I always wondered what the ducking effect was, awesome!

[@Onix_1962]

[@KingPuff-hl3ed]

Im streaming on twitch and i learn everything from you! Thanks alot hugs from Portugal!

[@RobertAgarHutton]

GREAT TIPS - very helpful - Love the vertical audio controls and the audio ducking - going to give both of them a go next week when I do my Tai Chi Zoom sessions - and process priority is probably going to help me too.

[@burstmustakim_official]

Thanks bro. I am a teenage KZbinr. All your video was useful.

[@justnotg00d]

[@Mv3Trader]

Good stuff!

[@MichaelFeyrerJr]

Thanks

[@davidhohnholt5974]

Thanks for these videos. They are very helpful. I am curious if I am wasting some of my computer resources. I was having some issues with dropped frames so I scaled down from 1080 output to 720. I have two sony a6400 cameras that are bringing the video in and i have left them at 4k resolution. Is there any point in having them at 4k vs 1080 if i am just going to downscale them in OBS for the restream broadcast?

[@bigrob029]

i knew that you could add custom docks and i happened to find that they were stackable docks by accident. blew my mind. great feature!!

You're awesome 🥇✨

[@augmented2nd666]

My OBS all the sudden started freezing and not responding then crashing a few days ago. Ive installed nothing except Owned and Teleport. I uninstalled owned, still freezes within 10 minutes of streaming. Game im playing is Quake Champions. I am currently stuck with Wifi, so thats a factor for sure. Im also only on 16gb ram. I tried running a dual PC setup with teleport and the quality went soooo bad especially when im moving fast in game. My thoughts are, upgrade Ram to not only larger, but faster ram if possible and a faster SSD a reinstall to it making it the new C drive. Also, using a capture card between the gaming laptop and old desktop. But most importantly, my ISP is coming over tomorrow to enable my cable box so I can plug directly in in the room I work in. Love your videos Mike, ive learned a ton from you now thanks so much. Im considering trying Prism today, ive had success with OBS for months streaming from the gaming computer for hours on end with no issue, so hopefully I can reinstall OBS from scratch and theres a difference.

[@ms_anoka]

Hello! Thank you for your videos, they are very helpful that’s a definitely like from me☺️🙏 I have a question related to some issue that I’m frequently having with OBS. For streaming I’m using Bluetooth Headphones, and when due to low battery they suddenly turn off I’m loosing all other sounds in OBS except external usb Microphone. So game sounds(from iPad) and Spotify(app on PC desktop) just stop working. When it happens during live streams I usually go through all windows and delete the sound of the game and music and try to add to each scene again but it doesn’t work all the time plus takes lots of time. And as an ultimate solution is to restart the OBS and stream, which is bad because I’m loosing viewers. I would really appreciate if you took a look at this problem, thank you in advance☺️🙏💜

[@CareyJGibson]

The main source of dropped frames on my streams using Windows computers is the Windows update process, which runs quite often. Even when supposedly at low priority, it can tie up your storage device (particularly HHD) and otherwise slow your machine. A solution is to go to Settings - Update and Security and pause updates in Windows Update. The default pause is 7 days, but you can change this in the advanced options.

[@andrew150663]

Hi Fonts have you done a tutorial on them? I added a font I wanted to use in to my windows font folder. It appears in obs but when I try and use it it doesn’t appear and I’m not sure why?

[@luki_el]

it is useful

[@siggevibes]

What mouse is that? Looks comfortable.

[@prime8098]

nice

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

Is there some trick to docking and undocking? Because it seems very inconsistent for a program that’s this old and with so many users

[@chavenger]

Which encoder should I use x264 or amd? Cheers 🍻 amd 5700xt gpu, amd 5800x cpu, x570mb

[@BostonClipper]

I have 5 audio sources while flying Flight Simulator. The Sim, Microphone, Copilot, "Air Traffic chatting", and "Air Traffic Control". I want the "Air Traffic chatting" to duck for everything except the Sim audio. I used your settings for Microphone, Copilot, and "Air Traffic Control". It does not work when I listen to the audio during recording through my headset. I did uncheck Settings/Audio/Advanced/Disable Windows audio ducking. It is essential to have the ducking for the video recording AND through my headset live to reduce "stepping on radio transmissions". Any idea what I should try next?

[@MOREAUGAMING]

Hi can u comment back about new OBS UPDATE that happend today? My stream looks bad and i need help ASAP please explain the new settings in a comment for me

[@geminiscalamity2578]

Dang. I've been streaming for years now, and only knew about the stat window

[@jayneel3137]

hey Michael plz help me in obs, I did a screen recording of a teams meeting generally I used the mp4 format but I discover the warning sign of obs to switch to mkv as a backup and remux it then I set my format to mkv I recorded a 1 hr long video and when stopping the video in obs I also see the duration and recording is on but when I save it and see the recording the mkv file is only 30 min and after remuxing the file also it only 30 min plz help how to recover the full video I regret using the mkv format previously I used mp4 and 4 videos are recording fine I want that video for reference its important plz help

[@Crix4evaTnT]

I use audio ducking but it doesn't work all the time tho

[@IamKryptonite]

fyi your streamyard link isn't linking correctly

[@edongski]

hi, why you are still using an outdated OBS version? plugins incompatibility?

[@curtisharper7566]

PERFECT Micheal, im getting it more and more, after 3000 looks,

[@EL_N0IR_2201]

hey micheal in all honesty i only trust you now that you gut me started in obs you really did so im sorry to annoy you with my noob questions but i dont trust anybody else! i have a i912900k and a rtx 3090 and 64gbs ram total my problem is im anoob but a noob that has done some research but still cant find the answears and my head is about to explode rom all the nonsense videos lol im tryng to record and maybe one day stream call of duty mw2 at 4k maxed out settings, my settings are: bit rate 60000kbs, tried lowering bit rate but got nothing, using nvidia nvenc h.264 at mp4 rescale out put is ticked off ,cbr,p6 slower better quality ,tunung high, profile high i have maximised the crap out of my pc and still iget encoding lagg issues lik 60000 red numbers and i noticed that almost maxes out the gpu not entirely it will use about 22vram out of my 24vram on the 3090, is my pc weak???? is it not strong enough? im thinking my rtx 3090 cant do it all but i need an expert like you to help me find the conclusion, i mean it looks like i need two gpus to achive this one for the game capture and one for the decoding im really lost to be honest, what kind of pc specs do i need too achive what im tryng to do if you would be kind too maybe mention a pc or set up that can achieve this, i do have a second pc with another gpu. please micheal ive done the whole trouble shooting and change this and that, the only thing that worked was swiching the encoder too x264 that is what arises my suspicions but im in disbelief my pc is that weak. ps sorry for the paragraph
