"OBS Alternative"

Very easy to get started with and use with no knowledge of how to work it. I was able to get it up and running very quickly.

What do you dislike about Xsplit Broadcaster?

The organization of my files when I recorded something and wanted to put it with another clip. After awhile I figured out where things were going but wished it wasn’t so many steps.

What problems is Xsplit Broadcaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I wanted to do custom broadcast to my social media channels. I’m able to brand my videos and show things in real-time as I broadcast.

"Takes Some Crafting, But Worth It"
What do you like best about Xsplit Broadcaster?

I love how stable it is, its large selection of plug-ins and customization, and how little the layout of the software changes from version to version (so no re-figuring out where everything is located *cough*ADOBE*cough*).

What do you dislike about Xsplit Broadcaster?

It has a learning curve, and requires some pre-production time to get everything set up and ready to go. It does let you save different stream layouts (which it calls "presentations") and will automatically load and hold the last one opened, but you still have to set it all up. You can create hotkeys and macros (but you have to take the time to set it up), can broadcast to a multitude of platforms including with custom RTMP (but, yet again, you have to take the time to set it up), and can even have participants in the steam with you via NewTek NDI (which takes time and a little effort to set up, and I still haven't done yet). So yeah, the setup time and effort takes some time. But once you do, it's awesome.

What problems is Xsplit Broadcaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've used this to completely rework a live fundraising event to be held via Zoom by using this to host both live participants and pre-recorded footage blended together to not disturb the audience. I've recorded multitrack podcasts, let's plays, software tutorials, and more. Ultimately, this is my go-to software for screen captures.

"The most complete software for broadcast"
What do you like best about Xsplit Broadcaster?

What I like the most is that it allows you to configure the quality of the broadcast in many technical aspects and offers a very efficient consumption of resources. In addition, it supports almost any form of input (video, screenshot, web pages, Skype) and extensions of almost any type thanks to its large community of users.

What do you dislike about Xsplit Broadcaster?

It is very difficult to dislike some of the software itself as it is great. The only downside that I see is that the license is somewhat high in price and has hardly any plans, only one free, extremely limited, and one complete, with too many functions for some.

What problems is Xsplit Broadcaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Xsplit allows me to make Internet broadcasts about the programming of various softwares so that users can see the operation of some open source programs that I create and so that novice developers can learn to program. Thanks to the I can capture the screen and the microphone without problems, even the webcam or another screen when necessary, and broadcast it without problems.

"A good software for streaming"
What do you like best about Xsplit Broadcaster?

It is a pretty handy and simple tool for recording and streaming videos. we can stream videos with this software on Twitch and Youtube it is not very complex to use as its counterparts but still a decent software

What do you dislike about Xsplit Broadcaster?

It has very few features compared to some of its well-known counterparts like OBS Studio and Streamlabs which have various features and functions.But overall XSplit Broadcaster is a good tool for people starting streaming

What problems is Xsplit Broadcaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was using XSplit Broadcaster for streaming and recording the videos that I used to make for a youtube channel. I used it because it is a fast and light software that doesn't take much memory.

"Decent software - Functional and with a competitive price tag"
What do you like best about Xsplit Broadcaster?

I very much like the ease of use, especially for beginners (which is where I was at one point in time). I've used it numerous times with my Elgato Game Capture HD without fault at all, whereas other programs like OBS, have fallen to the wayside because of their incompatibility with it.

What do you dislike about Xsplit Broadcaster?

It falls flat on a few features that other pieces of software have utilised for a while. OBS is obviously the number one competitor here, with features and links to Nvidia (NVENC) and is a little more customisable / friendly with plugins and addons.

What problems is Xsplit Broadcaster solving and how is that benefiting you?

Xsplit runs far better than OBS, on my system at least. I don't know if others find that, but I certainly do.
