Open Broadcaster Studio

Instructors and individuals looking for a more intuitive video production and streaming software may want to revisit this resource from the 05-19-2017 issue of the Scout Report. Open Broadcaster Studio (OBS) continues to provide no-cost recording, streaming, and mixing tools to enhance your projects including, perhaps, a creative COVID-19 archive or project. It can be a surprisingly difficult task to record and stream video over the internet. Users must often assemble a pipeline of several different tools that each handle a different aspect of the production process. Open Broadcaster Studio wraps the entire process into a single, simple to use application. It can be used to pre-record video content, but it truly shines as a tool for live streaming. Multiple popular streaming services are supported including YouTube and Facebook Live. It can perform real time video and audio mixing, audio filtering (e.g. noise suppression), video filtering (e.g. color correction), custom transitions between scenes, and more. Extensive documentation is available on its website, including step-by-step guides with detailed instructions and screenshots. Users may also seek assistance via the very active Open Broadcaster Software forums or via live community chat. Open Broadcaster Studio is available for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux computers.
