INSTALL
To start, we'll go to obsproject.com to install the OBS Studio or Open Broadcaster Software Studio software. Then we'll install the software on my computer.

SOURCES
Once installed, the first thing we'll do is add sources. We'll add one for the 'Display Capture' -- which gives us the desktop. We'll add another for the 'Video Capture Device' -- which gives us the webcam. You'll want to make sure that Video Capture Device appears at the top of the list, which ensures that the video appears on top of the desktop image.

OUTPUT TAB
Next we check the output tab. This shows where the videos files are stored. You can also edit the file type that we store the video as.

AUDIO
Next we check the audio. You can see how you can adjust the audio level for system audio as well as for the mic.

Lastly, we'll click on recording, show a demo recording in a game, and then play back the file to see how the recording worked.

Looking for a quality webcam? Check the latest pricing on webcams at Amazon: amzn.to/3aqtu3A (as a disclaimer, purchasing through this link gives me a small commission to support videos on this channel -- the price to you is the same).

Hope you enjoy the video! Let me know if you have any questions or feedback.
