Customizable Dark theme FPS counter Specific for Gaming Hitbox support Live recording Media Streaming Restream.io integration Stream Capture Video Casting Youtube Gaming Integration Add a feature I installed OBS. It simply records the display, but doesn't allow any annotation and several other features that Camtasia Studio, FlashBack and others provide.

Guest • Dec 2016 • 3 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Used it for recording screen activities with commentary. Guest • Jul 2015 • 4 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree OBS is good for broadcasting software, but for editing video it is not ideal.
