If you are a live streamer, you know how important it is to capture the right screen. When you are broadcasting to viewers, it’s essential that you do not give away potential personal information. Surprisingly, capturing your screen in Open Broadcaster Software was not an easy task. There are three different capture sources, and you have to know which one to use based on the situation.
There are many complicated settings, and you have to choose what to capture with confusing dropdown menus. We wanted to improve the overall user experience and make it easier for streamers to capture the right screen.
Today, we are excited to introduce a new source called “Screen Capture.” This new source is a unified screen capture experience, combining three sources into one.
To get started immediately, you can download Streamlabs Desktop here.
