I'm having trouble setting up the Source Record plugin in OBS to record my gameplay and camera feed separately #108

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble setting up the Source Record plugin in OBS to record my gameplay and camera feed separately. Here are the details of my issue:

Current Setup:

I'm using nested scenes in OBS. I have a scene for gameplay and a separate scene for my camera and overlays put into a nested seacen. I've added the Source Record filter to both the gameplay and camera sources in their respective scenes. Problem:

The plugin is not recording my camera feed. It only records the gameplay. Additionally, OBS is still creating a combined recording along with the separate recordings, which I don't want. Recording Settings:

Recording Path: D:/Youtube/Recording Recording Format: MPEG-4 (.mp4) Video Encoder: Use stream encoder Audio Encoder: FFmpeg AAC Audio Track: Track 1 What I've Tried:

Adding Source Record filters to both the gameplay and camera sources with different output paths. Ensuring the main recording in OBS is not started to prevent combined recordings. Questions:

How can I ensure that both the gameplay and camera feeds are recorded separately? How do I stop OBS from creating a combined recording while using the Source Record plugin? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Change your filter settings from "Recording" to "Always" on both sources and then press the eye icon to disable them.

Instead of using the OBS Record button, set a hot hey (or StreamDeck key) to enable/disable the filter (i.e. start/stop recording)...just did it last night on 4+ hours of separate gameplay/camera recording
