[Guide] Multiple free recording / screenshot programs
Tue Jul 11, 2017 3:39 am
This thread is still in maintenance.
as we all know, hackers are one of the most annoying part of any server. We are lucky that we have a good reporting system via the forums, but unfortunatly I've noticed that a lot of people don't have a recording program which makes it not possible for them to report abuse / hackers.
I am making this thread for those who can't download or don't know how to download a recording program.

OBS
- How to use OBS:
Special thanks to [USER=92102]@JoelB[/USER] for making this one
1. First you go to your preferenced search engine and you type in open broadcaster software. Click the link of https://obsproject.com/.
2. When you're on the OBS website, click the download button for 'Windows 7/8/10'.
3. Now a download starts. When it's done downloading open the program.
4. Now a set-up menu appears. Follow all the steps shown below.
5. Make sure to select 'Run Open Broadcaster Software' and click 'Finish'.
6. Now this screen appears. Right click in the empty box 'Sources' box. The following should appear.
7. Click 'Game Capture' and give your now source a custom name or just leave it Game Capture.
8. Have your Minecraft title screen running in the background so that you can select '[javaw]: Minecraft 1.8'.
Other versions will work too. Then hit 'OK'.
9. If this was all done correctly you should have something like this.
10. Now click 'Preview Stream' to check if everything was done correctly. If so, you should have something looking like shown below. To continue click 'Stop Preview'.
11. Now go to the top-left corner of your screen and click 'Settings' -> 'Settings'.
12. Go to the 'Broadcast Settings' tab. Click on the 'Mode' tab and select 'File Output only'.
13. Now click 'Browse' and select the preferenced folder to output the file to.
14. If you have selected the output folder click 'OK'
15. Because OBS only outputs .flv files you'll need a fast converter. For this tutorial we'll be using Freemake Video Converter. Go to your search engine and type 'freemake'.
16. When on the website click 'Freemake Video Converter'.
17. Then click 'Download'.
18. Now your download is starting.
19. Open the program when it's done downloading.
20. Now select the preferenced language.
21. Make sure to read the agreement, in the pictures shown below I don't agree with them because they require me to download third-party programs. Just make sure that you read what you're agreeing with.
22. Select 'Full Installation' and click 'Next'.
23. Select 'Launch Freemake Video Converter' and finish the installation.
24. You now get the following window. Click 'Video' to convert a .flv video to a .mp4 video.
25. Select the video where you have recorded a hacker.
26. Now you should have the video selected. Next, click 'to MP4'
27. As preset click 720p, or if you have a fast PC/laptop/MacBook/ click 'Same as source'.
28. Then click '...' to select the folder you want to output to.
29. Select your preferenced folder and hit 'Save'.
30. Then press 'Convert'.
31. You have now completed the conversion. Click 'OK' to close the 'Success' windows.
32. Now click 'Show in folder' to show you final result of you catching a hacker. The video is now ready to go on YouTube.
For the best settings to record with in OBS click the following link: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/
