Hey OBS users

Hey OBS users,
     I had my first successful live broadcast using OBS last night. OBS worked like a champ! I used the latest version and used the OpenSuse installer on Fedora 22 MATE edition.
     I only had 2 issues. One is that my internet speed kept going up and down, I'm on satellite, so, da! But I think the second one might have been OBS's fault. The video stream was running about 15 to 20 min. behind on YouTube. When I've used the Hangouts app it only runs about 30 to 40 seconds behind. AND... After I finished my 1 hour stream, YouTube only posted the first 38 minutes. 
     Any tips?!
Thanks guys,
     Micah

We are trying to create a "cheat sheet" on how to use the new version(s) of OBS.

We are trying to create a "cheat sheet" on how to use the new version(s) of OBS.  I've not found any list of features or even a glossary of terms used in the new menu structure.  I'm hoping that by sharing the Google Docs document below and allowing comments and edits, we can crowd source some documentation.  If you've learned something that isn't documented here please add it to the document.  Commenting will allow for some discussion or challenges to assertions made.

I've been remiss in churning out new how-to videos lately.

I've been remiss in churning out new how-to videos lately. So, I invite you all to request tutorials to assist my brain in coming up with topics.

The new Windows version of the Multi-platform OBS is out. I need to do a full review of that and a tutorial showing what is different about the settings. It is still in alpha (pre-beta) but is fully capable. http://obsproject.com (Mac and Linux versions have also been updated.)

Here are the release notes. Don't look at them if you are easily frightened by tech-talk a'plenty!  https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studio/releases

Local Recordings With OBS (With Comparisons to Fraps)

Local Recordings With OBS (With Comparisons to Fraps)
Here is a good comparison of OBS with Fraps, but more importantly has some advice I've never seen before for folks only recording and not streaming - namely, the suggestion to change the preset in Advanced Settings to "Ultrafast" to save on CPU resources for recording purposes.

Lower Your CPU Usage in OBS Streams and Recordings

Lower Your CPU Usage in OBS Streams and Recordings
This video shows how to lower your CPU "hit" or usage in Open Broadcaster Software (OBS), permitting an older or slower computer to stream with more headroom for running other programs, like browser windows, games or software applications.

The software used to monitor the CPU is Sysinternal's "Process Explorer" for Windows at Microsoft Technet:  https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx
Load it up and click the CPU monitor to bring up a full window view. It runs in your taskbar.

I'm Interviewing a man by the name of John Hess(from filmmakeriq.com) tonight on my YouTube channel... I'm using OBS to do it. This is my first time live streaming with OBS on Linux. I hope it all goes well. 
     It starts at 9 CST. I'd love to see you guys there. Please let me know if there is anything that I should know before I start. :-)

Thanks so much for the add :)
