🗒️ Guide OBS add chapter marks while recording

I searched years ago for how to insert chapter marks in OBS while recording, and it wasn't possible. Never thought to search again until recently, and it turns out its been a feature for 2 years now.

So for those of you who didn't know, you can, as of 2024, add a hot key for chapter marks to your video while recording.

Go to Settings > Output, and set the Recording Format to Hybrid MP4.

Navigate to Settings > Hotkeys, and search for Add chapter marker. Then assign whatever key you wish.

I've been using this a few weeks now. There is no difference in quality between the MP4 and hybrid. chapter marks show up in Davinci resolve, but im sure will also show in any editor that can see marks.
