Why we like it

Earns its place in the Adobe Exchange library by tying OBS recording and Premiere Pro import into a single panel, with playhead syncing so the captured file lands at the position it was recorded from.

What is OBS Recorder Panel?

OBS Recorder Panel is a UXP panel for Premiere Pro that connects to OBS, or Open Broadcasting Software, version 28 and up. It lets you start and stop an OBS recording from the panel.

Once a recording finishes, the panel automatically imports the resulting file into the current bin in Premiere Pro. It also captures the playhead position at the moment recording began and sets the playhead to that exact spot, so the file can be imported to the same position for perfect sync.

The panel is listed as free in the Adobe Exchange library and works with Premiere Pro version 25.6.2 and up, alongside OBS version 28 and up. This release is marked as version 1.0.0, and OBS itself can be downloaded from the OBS Project website.

Who is OBS Recorder Panel best for?

OBS Recorder Panel is best for premiere Pro editors who record with OBS and want the captured file imported into the current bin and placed at the playhead position from when recording started.

How much does OBS Recorder Panel cost?

OBS Recorder Panel is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

Does OBS Recorder Panel work with Premiere Pro 25.6.2?

OBS Recorder Panel works with Premiere Pro version 25.6.2 and up. The current release is version 1.0.0, updated on December 3, 2025, and its changelog confirms both the Premiere Pro version requirement and OBS version 28 and up. If you are on an earlier build of Premiere Pro, update to 25.6.2 or later before adding the panel. For the most current list of supported versions, check the developer's Adobe Exchange page before downloading, since compatibility can change with future updates.

What version of OBS does OBS Recorder Panel require?

OBS Recorder Panel requires OBS, or Open Broadcasting Software, version 28 and up. The panel uses OBS to handle the actual recording, so a compatible OBS install needs to be in place for the start and stop controls and the automatic import to function. You can download OBS from the OBS Project website. Once OBS version 28 or later is installed and Premiere Pro is at version 25.6.2 or above, the panel can start and stop recordings and bring the resulting file into your current bin.

Is OBS Recorder Panel free?

OBS Recorder Panel is listed as free in this catalog. Because pricing and licensing terms can change over time, the developer's Adobe Exchange page is the best place to confirm the current terms before you download. The panel is published by GrooveHouse, and the release available here is version 1.0.0, updated on December 3, 2025. For details on usage rights or any account steps required to obtain it, refer to the developer's page for the definitive terms.

How does OBS Recorder Panel keep recordings in sync with the timeline?

OBS Recorder Panel keeps recordings aligned by working with the playhead. When you start a recording, the panel notes the playhead position at that exact moment, then sets the playhead back to that same position. When the recorded file is imported, it can be placed at that precise spot for perfect sync. Combined with the automatic import into the current bin, this means the footage you capture through OBS lands in Premiere Pro at the position it was recorded from.
