    Better Video Recording Software: ManyCam vs. OBS Studio


    Trying to decide between ManyCam and OBS Studio for a video recording software. What are the pros and cons of each? Recommendations? Some research seems to indicate that OBS is the more popular choice. Opinions? Thanks in advance!

    Failure to record OpenGL window with OBS

    I run OBS, switch to the window to record, and press the hotkey I've assigned to record. Then I wait 3 seconds and press the "stop recording" hotkey. During this whole time I see the desired animation in the window to record.

    What I get out of this is a videofile with the correct length, but in the video:

    • the OpenGL window does not animate in the video
    • the OpenGL window it has the OBS window on top of it

    The OBS window was not on top of the OpenGL window when I was recording.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Record video on laptop

    Hi Lee, unless the OBS studio supports getting video through a USB port, there is no real way to do that in Windows - you need to check the OBS Studio website for that information

    Windows does not natively recognize a USB port as a video input source . . .

    Does your Android Notebook stream video through a USB port?

    I would suggest taking the video on the Android Notebook, then save it as a video file, copy that to a flash drive and then onto your laptop. Then edit the video in OBS!

    Better Video Recording Software: ManyCam vs. OBS Studio

    OBS Says its recording but its not

    Try uninstall and reinstall the software then to see if it resolves the problem.

    Otherwise, I recommend you repost this issue on the OBS Studio forums, since it is not specifically a Windows 10 issue.
