I am streaming from Windows 10 host to macOS client.

What sort of solution are available? I think I should capture on host to avoid unnecessary quality lost.

I would like some suggestions particularly for old games like The Sims 1, where Windows 10's built-in game bar / DVR doesn't seem to work.



Best Answer

Using OBS to record the game while streaming will work.

How do you record gameplay while streaming?

Open any game on Full Screen. Go to OBS. The game will appear in the window which means OBS recognizes it and is recording it. To try the second mode, select Game Capture from the Sources list and click the gear icon.
