TRANSCRIPT EXCERPT
Hey everyone, in this video we’re going to talk about OBS Studio’s 0.14 updates, which include alt-cropping, new transitions, and a bit more.
Let’s get right into it.
If you haven’t yet, head over to OBSProject.com, go to the downloads section, and grab the latest version of OBS Studio with the browser source. Once you have it installed and updated, let’s launch it and check out some of the new features.
The first thing we’re going to talk about is alt-cropping. A lot of people have been asking for the ability to crop sources directly in the preview window, and alt-cropping helps us do that. If you used OBS Classic, you probably know what I’m talking about, but if not, let’s go ahead and add a source into our preview area.
From here, simply click the source you want to crop, hold down the alt key, and then drag the bounding box in where you’d like to crop. You can click any of the sides of the box, but you can also select a corner to crop two sides at once. You can undo the cropping by dragging the box back out.
You can use alt cropping to get a general area cropped out, and then right click the source, go to Edit Transform, and from here you can use the controls under the crop section to make any fine tuned adjustments.
Finally, you can use reset transform to return your source to its original dimensions.
Let’s go ahead and move onto another new feature which is snap to sources/screen. This can be enabled and disabled in the general settings. You can tweak how sensitive snapping is, as well as turn on and off the ability to snap to the edge of your screen, snap to other sources, and also snap to horizontal and vertical center of other sources.
With all of them enabled, you can see how this works - where my sources just snap to each other - make it easy to do aligning with edges and other sources. This can be very useful for setting up alignment of sources quickly.
