Split screen webcam recording software

[Starglider]

Hi,

 

I am in need of some software much like the one Linus uses for his live video casts.

 

I need to have the webcam recording full screen with what my desktop sees in a much smaller inscreen window. Much like when Linus makes the desktop full screen for us to see and shrinks his webcam inscreen to the top right. (Webcam large, desktop inscreen small for my needs).

 

Anyone got any ideas of any good software that I can use to achieve this?

Linus what software are you using?

 

I am PC win7 based with a MS Life Cam HD.

 

 

Thanks

Xsplit, xsplit is life

Cool downloading both now

 

Hopefully they can output to file rather than live stream.

 

Thanks

OBS

Open Broadcaster master race.

Obs kills sonic generations for me while xsplit has little impact

OBS can stream, file output, and both at the same time.

Confirmed OBS is working perfectly

 

Thanks all

Xsplit is terrible, OBS is the way to go.

Have you tried using Dxtory? Black & White (using DX7) did about the same thing for me. Using Dxtory to OBS fixed it.

I do dxtory to xsplit

It did the same to me but I changed a few settings around and now I get maybe a 5 fps hit.

Could you help me later

I could but I wouldn't count on my advice.

I could but I wouldn't count on my advice.

Also I'm pretty sure sonic generations only use 1 or 2 threads, and at that it maxes the cores

What Settings do you use for dxtory and obs

[AlwaysFSX]

I think this is all of them

@ If streaming gets a bit weird just change how many threads you want OBS to use and it runs a lot faster, only downside is that if you're playing a game that is extremely cpu intensive then having OBS use more threads will lag the game. This is one plus for Mantle as it offloads the game's cpu tasks onto the gpu freeing up space to be used by whatever you stream with..
