Зачем записывать совещания Zoom с помощью OBS?

Одно из ключевых преимуществ использования OBS для Zoom-совещание Записи - это уровень настройки и контроля, который она предлагает. Вы можете точно настроить параметры видео и звука, организовать макет сцены и добавить дополнительные элементы, например текстовые наложения или брендинг.

• Записи более высокого качества: OBS captures Zoom meetings in high resolution and at your chosen frame rate, producing clearer, more professional-looking videos than Zoom’s built-in feature. This matters if you plan to share recordings with a wider audience or use them for training.
• Настраиваемая композиция сцены: Resize and position the Zoom window, add branding or watermarks, include a webcam feed, or layer text overlays. OBS handles all of this in real time, which speeds up post-production significantly.
• Захват аудио из нескольких источников: Record audio from your microphone, computer audio, and the Zoom meeting simultaneously. You can capture separate audio tracks for post-production editing or add commentary alongside the meeting audio.
• Бесплатно и с открытым исходным кодом: OBS Studio is completely free to use and distribute. It is continuously improved by a community of developers and has a large library of user-created resources and tutorials available online.

Вопросы конфиденциальности при записи совещаний Zoom с помощью OBS

Before you start recording, recording meetings can raise significant privacy and legal concerns.

Depending on your location, recording conversations without explicit consent may be illegal. Some jurisdictions require all parties to consent; others require only one party to be aware. When using OBS, participants are not automatically notified the way they are with Zoom’s built-in recorder.

To stay compliant, obtain verbal consent from all participants before starting the recording. Clearly state that the meeting will be recorded and explain how the recording will be used. This practice builds trust and helps you meet legal requirements in most jurisdictions.

Как настроить OBS для записи совещаний Zoom

Setting up OBS for the first time involves several details. Here is the quickest path to a working configuration.

Step 1: Download and Install OBS Studio

Download the latest version of OBS Studio from the официальный сайт. Программное обеспечение доступно для Windows, macOS и Linux.

Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions. The process takes a few minutes.

• Default settings: Stick with defaults unless you have specific requirements.
• Место установки: Note where OBS installs; you may need this folder later for plugins or custom configurations.

After installation, launch OBS Studio. When prompted to run the Auto-Configuration Wizard, select “Optimize just for recording.” This gives you a usable baseline that you will then adjust in Steps 2 and 3.

Шаг 2: Настройте параметры видео

Click “Settings” in the lower right corner of the main OBS window, then navigate to the “Video” tab.

Базовое (холст) разрешение

Set this to match your monitor’s resolution. If you are unsure, use 1920×1080, the most common option. Common choices:

• 1920×1080 (1080p)
• 1280×720 (720p)
• 2560×1440 (1440p)

Выход (масштабирование) Разрешение

This determines the final resolution of your recorded video. Keep it identical to the canvas resolution for maximum quality. If you need smaller file sizes, scale down to 1280×720.

Фильтр уменьшения масштаба

If your base and output resolutions differ, set the Downscale Filter to “Lanczos” for the best balance of quality and performance. This setting is unavailable when both resolutions are identical.

Общие значения FPS

• 30 КАДРОВ В СЕКУНДУ: Standard for most recordings; good balance of quality and file size.
• 60 КАДРОВ В СЕКУНДУ: Smoother motion; better for fast-paced content or polished presentations.

Click “Apply” then “OK” to save.

Output Format: MKV vs. MP4

Before leaving Settings, go to the “Output” tab and check your recording format.

• MKV is OBS’s default because it is crash-safe. If OBS crashes mid-recording, MKV recovers the file; MP4 does not.
• MP4 is more compatible with video editors, YouTube, and Sonix.
• Recommended workflow: Record in MKV, then use OBS’s built-in remux tool (File > Remux Recordings) to convert to MP4 without re-encoding. You get crash safety during recording and compatibility after.

Шаг 3: Настройка источников звука

High-quality audio requires two specific sources in OBS.

1. In the main OBS window, locate the “Audio Mixer” section at the bottom center.
2. Click the “+” button in the “Sources” box and add “Audio Input Capture” for your microphone.
3. Add “Audio Output Capture” for your system audio (this captures the Zoom meeting audio).
4. Rename each source clearly, for example “Microphone” and “Zoom Audio.”
5. Adjust volume sliders so levels are balanced and not clipping (turning red).
6. To improve audio quality, right-click a source in the Audio Mixer, select “Filters,” and add noise suppression or gain as needed.

Важно: If you mute your microphone in Zoom, OBS continues recording your mic independently. To stop OBS from capturing your mic, click the speaker icon next to the Audio Input Capture meter in the OBS Audio Mixer, or remove the source entirely.

Шаг 4: Добавьте захват окна масштабирования

1. Откройте совещание Zoom и расположите окно так, как вам нужно.
2. In OBS, click the “+” button in the “Sources” box.
3. Select “Window Capture.”
4. Name the source (for example, “Zoom Meeting”) and click “OK.”
5. In the “Create/Select Source” window, choose the Zoom window from the “Window” dropdown.
6. Click “OK” to add the source to your scene.

Tips for capturing your Zoom meeting:

• Keep the Zoom window visible and not minimized or covered during recording.
• If you have multiple monitors, confirm OBS is capturing the correct one.
• Add other sources (webcam, presentation slides) by repeating the process above.

Шаг 5: Настройка композиции сцены

After adding your sources, arrange them for a clean, professional layout.

1. Resize and position sources: Click and drag the edges of each source in the preview area to resize. Drag to reposition. A common layout places the webcam in a corner and the Zoom window in the center.
2. Adjust source properties: Right-click a source in the “Sources” box and select “Properties” to access transparency, color correction, and other settings.
3. Use scene transitions: Click “+” in the “Scene Transitions” box to add smooth transitions between scenes.

Adding a branded overlay

To add a branded overlay to your recording, create an image in any design tool (such as Adobe Photoshop or Canva), then add it in OBS as an Image source (Sources > + > Image) and position it in the preview. OBS composites it over your Zoom window automatically.

Сохранение и управление сценами

Right-click in the “Scenes” box and select “Save Scene” to preserve your layout. Create multiple scenes for different recording configurations. OBS remembers your settings the next time you open the app.

Using OBS Virtual Camera with Zoom

OBS Virtual Camera lets you feed your entire OBS scene (including overlays, multiple sources, and custom layouts) into Zoom as your camera source. Other participants see your branded OBS scene instead of a plain webcam feed.

To enable it:

1. In OBS, go to Tools > Start Virtual Camera.
2. In Zoom, open Video Settings > Camera and select “OBS Virtual Camera” from the dropdown.
3. Your OBS scene now appears as your Zoom camera for all participants.

This is useful for presenters who want branded overlays or picture-in-picture layouts visible to everyone in the meeting, not just in the local recording.

Как записать совещание Zoom с помощью OBS

Now that OBS is configured, follow these steps to capture your meeting.

1. Запустите OBS Studio: Open OBS and confirm your scene is set up with the Zoom window capture and any other sources.
2. Начните встречу Zoom: Open Zoom and start or join the meeting. Keep the Zoom window visible on screen.
3. Check your audio levels: Before recording, speak into your microphone and watch the Audio Mixer meters. If the bars are moving, audio is being captured.

4. Start recording: Click “Start Recording” in the OBS control panel. OBS captures your Zoom meeting, including all video and audio sources.
5. Participate normally: OBS records in the background. Focus on your meeting.
6. Остановить запись: Click “Stop Recording” when the meeting ends. OBS saves the file to your specified output directory.

Troubleshooting Common OBS + Zoom Recording Problems

These are the most frequent issues users encounter after setup.

OBS Records Video but Audio is Silent

Cause: The Audio Output Capture source is missing, or Zoom’s audio is routed to a device OBS is not monitoring.

Fix: Add an Audio Output Capture source in OBS and set it to the same playback device Zoom uses. Verify the audio meter moves in the OBS Audio Mixer while the meeting is running.

OBS Shows a Black Screen or Frozen Frame When Capturing Zoom

Cause: On Windows, hardware-accelerated apps (including Zoom) can block Window Capture. On Linux, a Pipewire vs. Pulseaudio source mismatch causes this.

Fix (Windows): Right-click the Window Capture source > Properties > enable “Allow Transparency.” Alternatively, disable hardware acceleration in Zoom (Settings > Video > Advanced > uncheck hardware acceleration options). If neither works, switch to Display Capture.

Fix (Linux): Switch from Screen Capture (Pipewire) to Window Capture (Pipewire) and select the Zoom window explicitly from the dropdown.

My Microphone is Recording Even When Muted in Zoom

Cause: Zoom’s mute only silences your mic within Zoom. OBS captures the mic independently via its own Audio Input Capture source.

Fix: Click the speaker icon next to the Audio Input Capture meter in the OBS Audio Mixer to mute it in OBS, or remove the source entirely before recording.

The Recording File is Too Large

Cause: MKV at high bitrate produces large files.

Fix: In OBS Settings > Output > Recording, change the format to MP4 and set the encoder to x264 with a CRF of 23 for a good quality-to-size balance. Alternatively, use the File > Remux Recordings workflow described in Step 2.

OBS and Zoom Audio are Out of Sync

Cause: Audio and video processing delays differ between sources.

Fix: Right-click the audio source in the Audio Mixer > Filters > add a “Video Delay (Async)” filter to the video source. You can also use the “Sync Offset” field in Advanced Audio Settings to align tracks manually.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Can you record a Zoom meeting with OBS if you are not the host?

Yes. OBS records whatever is on your screen regardless of your role in the meeting. You still need permission from the host or participants before recording.

Does OBS record Zoom meetings without other participants knowing?

OBS does not trigger Zoom’s recording notification banner. Participants will not see an on-screen alert. This makes it especially important to obtain verbal consent before you start, both for legal compliance and for transparency.

Why is there no audio in my OBS Zoom recording?

The most common cause is a missing Audio Output Capture source. Add one in OBS, set it to the same playback device Zoom uses, and confirm the meter moves in the Audio Mixer during the meeting.

What is the best output format for recording Zoom meetings in OBS?

Record in MKV for crash safety, then use File > Remux Recordings in OBS to convert to MP4 without re-encoding. MP4 is more compatible with video editors, YouTube, and Sonix.

How do I record a Zoom meeting without permission?

Recording without permission may violate privacy laws or the host’s preferences. Always seek explicit consent before recording any meeting.

Can I record multiple audio sources in OBS?

Yes. OBS records multiple audio sources simultaneously, including your microphone, system audio, and the Zoom meeting audio. Each source appears as a separate track in the Audio Mixer.

How do I record an online meeting with OBS?

Follow the five steps in this guide: install OBS, configure video settings, add audio sources, capture the meeting window, and start recording. The same workflow applies to Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and other conferencing platforms.
