For this guide, I will be demonstrating how to add Sources for the popular MOBA game "League of Legends".
Explanation:
Game Capture: This is the best source to use, this usually captures
in-game process's such as when you're in a game of League of Legends. If you use this, you might have to pair this with Window Capture for the lobby room of a game until the actual game loads
Window Capture: You can capture windows, such as ventrilo, skype, web browsers, music and lobby room of games such as League of Legends before entering an actual game
Monitor Capture: This source should be your last option. This method will always work but this is the
worse capture source to use
Video Capture Device: Webcams or other hardware capturing devices. If you add a webcam, you can resize your webcam and move it around on your stream preview by clicking the "Edit Scenes" button
Adding Sources for League of Legends:
First, make sure League of Legends is opened and you're at the lobby
You can't capture sources unless the program/game is running creating the "process"Right click the white area below Sources:
Window Capture, I use the name "Out of Game" click OK
I will now provide my screenshot of what you need to do, some scenarios will be different if you are running at different resolutions or downscale.
Window Capture - Out of Game:
Make sure league is opened and you may have to hit the Refresh button a few times and tab in and out of league, possibly leaving league still showing in the background for OBs to pickup the WindowAfter you add the source, click OKNow right click the Window Capture source you created:Position/Size -> Center
Position/Size -> Fit to screen
Now we will add the second source for League of Legends, this will capture your in-game play.Right click the white area below Sources:
Game Capture, I use the name "In Game" click OK
I will now provide my screenshot of what you need to do, some scenarios will be different if you are running at different resolutions or downscale.
First, make sure you are in a game of League of Legends. Create a custom and wait until you're loaded in at the shop
You can't capture sources unless the program/game is running creating the "process"Game Capture - In Game:
Make sure you're in a custom game loaded in and you may have to hit the Refresh button a few times.After you add the source, click OKNow right click the Game Capture source you created:Move Up
