Hello, and welcome to my first broadcast.
This evening I will be showing you how to install Open Broadcaster Software, aka OBS on Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuttlefish.
This is useful for recording or streaming how to’s such as these, or any other content.
When recording audio in Ubuntu, you can install the low latency kernel image for lower latency/delay. It is an example of a soft real-time computing kernel. It is my understanding that this kernel sacrifices stability for low latency. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Re…
Run the below commands in a terminal.
1. Install the low latency kernel
sudo apt --yes install linux-image-lowlatency

After reboot confirm you’re using the low latency kernel:
uname -r 4.18.0-11-lowlatency
4. Run OBS from dash:
