OBS vs Xsplit?

Go to solution Solved by Agent181,

I can only tell you about obs and xsplit since I have used them both

Obs is the open source software that streams and records, it has come a long way from what it first was and it can now do everything thing xsplit does but you have to wait a few months for updates

Xsplit is the paid software that can do the same, for xsplit u you have a software that gets constant updates but can be super buggy

I prefer obs but if you plan on recording good luck it gets tricky

Are you saying it's difficult to record with OBS or Xsplit?

I don't like 2D games...I just couldn't get into them.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The Wan show runs on xsplit, have you seen the problems they go through live?

This is why I prefer obs and hundreds of twitch streamers do also

Recording on obs can be tricky, I would make sure to download a plug-in for letting you know if you if you are recording

I've used both, OBS is awesome but I find it harder to place my sources as with Xplit it's easy to drag them where you want and size them as needed... 

Xplit is free and paid, I do recommend the paid version as you can add skype calls to it but I believe you can add skype calls with a plugin for OBS.

 

In terms of updates, Xplit wins this as OBS gets updates but less frequently...

in obs you just drag and resize things too...
