At first glance, the functionality here is much slimmer than OBS, which can be both an advantage and a disadvantage. Recently at work I found myself having to create a guide showing many configuration steps on Windows. For this task, I installed OBS, set my screen up as the video input, and proceeded to record everything I needed to. Through this activity, I thought that OBS had way more functionality than I needed for such a simple task. I was also surprised that my employer didn't scrutinize me more for installing software that's capable of streaming desktop/webcam video and application/microphone audio from this corporate workstation to some random server on the internet. For my application, something like Wcap would have been a better fit.
- nmstoker 5y agoYes, the simplicity could be appealing but without any audio support currently, it would be a touch too far on that path for me right now (audio is on their roadmap though)

- 1MachineElf 5y agoWow and thanks! I always wondered why there was Xbox* software built into Windows 10 that's seemingly uninstallable, even on my DISA STIG'd work computers. I guess this doesn't really answer the question, but at least now I know what that Xbox Game Bar one can be used for.
