XSplit showing why they are the leaders in video streaming technology!
Having a virtual monopoly!
(For the record, this isn't a notebook computer. It doesn't have an OEM, or I guess I am the OEM since I built it myself. The license I'm using comes from their web store. And my account name isn't %email%.)

Well, you really only have 3 choices to do video streaming stuff (at least on Windows).
- nVidia's ShadowPlay
- Requires an nVidia GeForce 600+ card.
- Can stream directly to Twitch.
- Can only stream to Twitch and no other streaming services.
- As far as I can tell, you can't put anything else on the screen.
- OBS
- Open Source
- Has... issues with some games, such as Alien: Isolation.

OBS
Open Source
Has... issues with some games, such as Alien: Isolation.Barely suitable for PC games.
Does not work at all for any capture cards I'm aware of. If you have a Hauppauge capture card and want to stream an Xbox game, good fucking luck.
There's actually another option-- Hauppauge Capture, but I think it has the opposite problem from OBS: it only works on capture cards, and not on PC games. Not unless you swap all your cables around and run the PC game through the card.

I am recording Alien: Isolation with OBS Studio and not having any issues?

You are doing it wrong!

To be fair, the last time I tried using OBS with Alien: Isolation was over a year ago. They may have fixed it by now.
I still don't even know why it was buggy as OBS worked just fine with other games I had tried it with.
-
You never tried it with an Xbox game.

I just got the same thing and it reminded me of this topic. The about screen says I have two free weeks of Premium, whatever that gets me.

necromancing the thread because... have you heard of FFSplit? surprisingly good, seems to work for a surprisingly wide range of games, even on dual-gpu laptop, which OBS can't do.
