First use of OBS Studio for a video: Demo setup of a new Eclipse install

I've been debating about trying to do some how-to videos for a long time.  This is my trial run to see what I need to do to create something of reasonable quality.

I tend to talk low so I need to improve that a bit and not mutter softly.  Scripting things out and repeating until I have a good flow would probably be good too.

Some of the slowness in Eclipse setup and such is probably due to the load of OBS Studio running so a bit more memory and faster CPU would probably be helpful.  I suspect that doing a window capture versus full screen might also reduce the system load. 




[Edit] I do wish the final video quality was a bit higher. I think the blog site down converted the resolution a bit.  

You can find OBS Studio at: https://obsproject.com/download

Hope everyone is safe and healthy as we weather the COVID-19 virus.

Thanks,
Scott
