OBS is an absolute powerhouse, an amazing example of what OSS can do
And so user friendly, too!
Nice to have a good UI that doesn’t encourage me to type in a bunch of bullshit.
Thank you for the news. 🥰
Didn’t HEVC work by default for Years now?
Last time I tried it, HEVC was not on the mainline Linux builds, you had to build it from source with it enabled or use a plugin for it.
OBS rocks!
Can you use the AMF encoder on Radeon cards with this?
Yes. https://github.com/obsproject/obs-amd-encoder
Or on Linux (sorry for Reddit link…) https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/qwqxwd/how_to_enable_amd_amf_encoding_in_obs/
I should have said with the mesa drivers. :(
Ah! Then like me you can use VKCapture. https://github.com/nowrep/obs-vkcapture.
It’s not quite as fast as hardware accelerated, but it’s as good as you can otherwise get.
While I don’t know how, I do know that there is a way to have mesa for most things while having AMF encoder for encoding. Nobara has this set up out of the box so there is some way. Maybe you could search for it using a search engine
Does it really? I know when I looked into it a bit ago the main dev for nobara had a video about how to install it and use it but it didn’t let you split that out. You could quickly change back and forth between mesa and amdgpu but if you tried to run amf with mesa it would hard lock and crash
It has been some time since I tried out Nobara so I might be wrong. I just remember that Nobara page lists having amf encoder support out of the box as a feature
huh… couldn’t you already get those through gstreamer or vaapi?
Those can do the heavy lifting, but OBS still has to ask them to do it.
yeah, but i mean, i already had the option to use those in OBS!
Are you saying something else users will have to learn and configure themselves to get working?
no, it was available as an option in OBS already…
on intel cards?
