OBS

  • This section goes over installing and setting up OBS on your system.
  • Open up a terminal and type in this command:
sudo dnf install obs-studio
  • This should download and install OBS on your system.
  • After downloading and installing it, you can open it and set it up as per usual.
    • On Wayland, you can capture specific windows or displays with the Screen Capture (PipeWire) source.
    • On X11, use the Window Capture (Xcomposite) source.
      • If you plan on using window resizing scripts on X11, it is recommended to set your Minecraft capture source to be centered. After adding Minecraft, select it and press Ctrl+E to open the transform settings - here, click "Reset", then set "Positional Alignment" to "Center". Finally, close the transform settings and press Ctrl+D.
  • If you are using classic wall (i.e. multi-instancing on versions without SeedQueue), you might want to look at these docs to setup OBS to work with resetti.

Splitting audio

  • Read ahead to set up audio splitting (useful for removing music from your Twitch VODs to avoid copyright, or only capturing game audio in your recordings).
  • As of right now, OBS on Linux does not support application-specific audio capture out of the box - we instead use an OBS plugin to achieve this.
  • Download and install the plugin using the instructions here.
  • After installing the plugin and restarting OBS, check the list of sources. You should see the "Application Audio Capture (PipeWire)" source at the top - after adding it, select the app to capture audio from in the Applications dropdown.
  • Make sure to mute/disable desktop audio afterwards.
