Newcomers may be baffled by the often overwhelming interface. However, all those fantastic features come at the cost of a steep learning curve. OBS Studio can also make full use of multi-core CPUs for improved performance and can record at 60FPS (or even higher). You can stream live to Twitch or YouTube gaming, save projects and come back to them later, or encode your footage in FLV format and save it locally.īecause OBS Studio can record directly from your graphics card, it’s able to screen capture games running in full-screen mode (many other screen recorders can only record if the game is windowed), with customizable hotkeys to control the recording. OBS Studio supports both streaming and recording in high definition, with no restrictions on the number or length of your creations.
Unlike the hugely popular FRAPS (which only lets you record for 30 seconds at a stretch unless you’ve bought a license, and applies a watermark to the resulting footage), OBS Studio is open source, and completely free to use without restrictions.
If you’re looking for free game recording software, OBS Studio is easily the best free screen recorder for you.
