how to record all spaces (standby desktops) when you switch between on mac? OBS records only screen where it was run

[stubbydinosaur]

it seems like your every where for pc tutorials like these. but anyways thanks

[electrified]

Thanks for the info.
I did not realize you have to set the path in the Simple AND Advanced Output Mode areas.
I was getting an error: Insufficient disk space when recording screen.
I had set the path in the Simple Mode screen, but didn't know there was an Advanced Mode screen or how to get there.
I don't know why they need to set the path in two locations. It doesn't make sense to me.
I realize this thread is a little old, but YT is the gift that keeps on giving.
Thanks again for clearing this up for me.
