OBS Studio 32.1.1

OBS Studio 是一套免費開源的錄影與直播軟體，核心能力在於同時擷取多個影音來源，即時混音後輸出到網路平台。它支援全螢幕、視窗、圖片、文字、瀏覽器、網路攝影機與擷取卡等來源，無論是遊戲實況、線上教學或產品發表都能勝任。這套軟體由 OBS Team 長期維護，更新相當頻繁，在同類工具中屬於主流首選，使用者評價普遍不錯，在 Mac 影片軟體分類中也是熱門下載項目。

它特別適合直播主、教育工作者與內容創作者，需要將多個畫面與音訊來源組合輸出時，OBS 的彈性與穩定性是最大優勢。相較於 Premiere 或 After Effects 這類偏重後製剪輯的軟體，OBS 強在即時串流與錄製，但本身不提供剪輯功能。軟體為開源授權，可免費使用，目前僅提供英文介面，對不熟悉英文操作介面的使用者來說，初期需要一些適應時間。
