Configure OBS for use with DaVinci Resolve on Linux

DaVinci Resolve supports less codecs on Linux than on Windows. That can present a problem when using OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) which uses defaults that are incompatible.

No worries, you can do the following:

  1. Go to Settings > Output.
  2. For Output Mode, select Advanced.
  3. Open Recording tab.
  4. For Type, select Custom Output (FFmpeg).
  5. For Container Formatmov.
  6. Set Video Birate to 5000.
  7. Video Encoder, select mpeg4.
  8. Audio Encoder, select pcm_s16be.

Ultimately, it should like something like this:


That should do it. Click OK or Apply and your recordings should work just fine in OBS.

Take screenshot on Windows 10 with Mac keyboard

Real quick: `⌘+SHIFT+S` That key combo (Command Key + SHIFT + S) will open Snip & Sketch, which is the replacement for the classic Snipping Tool and includes the keyboard shortcut above to make it easy to access. Once you press the key combo, the app opens with a selector dialog to let you outline the portion of the screen you want to copy to the clipboard. You can select the entire screen if you need that. And once done, you can press CTRL-V to paste the copied image wherever you need it (Paint, Gimp, etc). Lots of disparate advice exists on Q&A and other forums with solutions that vary heavily. But Snip & Sketch will work with any Windows 10 installation and the shortcut key makes it the optimal solution.
