Obs studio mac display capture not working12/31/2023 If you don’t do this, the cursor will keep jumping to the upper-left of the screen. Set “keep the mouse pointer” to “ Within the edges of the screen“.In the resultant Settings window, scroll down to “ keep the mouse pointer” and “keep the text cursor.In the resultant dialog, click on Go to Settings.In the WIndows Magnifier window, click on the gear icon (Settings).then press the Windows key and the ‘-‘ key to set the magnification to 100% (no magnification).Press the Windows key and the ‘+’ key to start the Windows Magnifier,.I found a helpful OBS Studio community member post that explained how to work around this bug: Unexpectedly, OBS Studio recordings still showed the tiny, default mouse pointer. In the resulting Settings window, under Change Pointer Size, move the slider to a size of 4.In the resulting window, click on Change Mouse Pointer Size. Click on the Windows Icon (usually at the lower-left of the screen).You can easily make the mouse pointer larger in Windows 10: When you’re watching a screen capture, you don’t know where the mouse is going next, so it can be hard to find the tiny, default pointer. Enlarging the Small Mouse PointerĪfter posting my first tutorial video, I immediately heard from one user that it’s hard to follow the tiny, default-sized Windows mouse pointer. Once I’d done that, OBS studio recorded my Windows screen sessions perfectly. On my Dell laptop, I opened the Nvidia control panel / 3d settings, selected OBS Studio and set that app to run on Integrated Graphics (which is the Windows Desktop adapter). The problem is that modern laptops have two graphics adapters, one for Windows and one for gaming, so you have to specify which one OBS Studio should record from. I found the solution in a How To posting on the OBS Studio site. When I first tried OBS Studio to capture a FreeCAD session, I found the drop-down menus weren’t recorded. The open source audio editor, Audacity Getting screen capture to work at all I’ve used this audio editor for years, and it’s been perfect for me. To post-process the audio a little, I use my long-term friend, Audacity. Fifine USB microphone with cardioid (directional) pickup Its maximum volume is lower than I’d like (a good sign, that it was designed by an audio engineer), but its signal-to-noise ratio, at 78 dB, is far better than any laptop mic I’ve used. It’s a good tradeoff between cost and quality, at about $36 USD. It was time to buy a decent laptop mic.Īfter a little hunting, I found a highly-rated Fifine USB mic with a cardiod (directional) pickup pattern. So I hauled out a couple of PC microphones I had lying around from literally decades ago. Meanwhile, for video screen capture, I found my laptop microphone was terrible: noisy, low-volume, and not very directional. I’ll need to revisit that choice someday, but for now it’s working for me. The open source screen recorder, OBS Studioįor my other videos, I’ve been doing audio on the cheap, recording audio directly from my phone’s internal microphone. Technically OBS Studio is for streaming your screen (gaming), but It’s also perfect for screen recordings for tutorials. When it came to video screen capture tools, I chose OBS Studio. I’ve been happy with ShotCut ver since: it works perfectly, and has all the features I need for my modest How To videos. I’m a big fan of open source software, so when I looked for a video editor a while ago, I chose ShotCut. In the making, I learned several handy tips for improving the quality of my screen capture videos. I recently made two FreeCAD tutorial videos.
