25.0.3
OBS Studio 25.0.2 25.0.3 Hotfix Changes --------------------- * Fixed video device source lagging on Linux 25.0.2 Hotfix Changes --------------------- * Fixed a crash when changing settings on Linux * Fixed a freeze on Linux * Fixed a crash on Windows 25.0.1 Hotfix Changes --------------------- * Fixed some FLV files not playing back properly with the media source * Fixed two crashes with the browser source * Fixed the names of monitors not showing up when using projectors * Fixed a crash with window capture * Fixed an issue where the preview would be stuck as disabled when starting the program minimized to tray * Fixed an issue where NVENC wasn't showing up for users on Linux (sorry about that, that was my fault -Jim) * Fixed a bug where certain games (particularly "Don't Starve Together") wouldn't capture with game capture anymore 25.0 New Features ----------------- * Added the ability to capture Vulkan-based games with game capture. Big thanks to Ubisoft Montreal for submitting this feature! [Littlematth/jpark37/Jim] * Added a new capture method to window capture which allows capturing browsers, browser-based windows, and Microsoft Store (UWP) programs [jpark37] * By default, it will use "Automatic", which will use the normal method on most windows, and the new method on browsers, browser-based windows, and Microsoft Store (UWP) programs * The downside of the new method is that it can cause a bit of cursor lag, as well as a highlighted border around the captured window. The border itself does not get captured, however. * You can choose which capture method to use in window capture properties * Added advanced scene collection importing (on the menu bar, Scene Collection -> Import) which allows you to import from other common streaming programs [Dillon] * Added Media source hotkeys to allow control of playback (stop/pause/play/restart) [cg2121] * For now, these are just hotkeys. User interface for this is also planned for future updates * Added the ability to drag and drop URLs to create browser sources (after displaying a confirmation prompt to ensure it was by intention) [WizardCM] * Developers can add an embed to their web pages that let them pre-specify parameters that automatically get set in the source when it's dragged into OBS. See this link for more details: https://obsproject.com/tools/browser-drag-and-drop * Added T-bar to studio mode [cg2121] * Note that this will not work while using a Stinger transition or the "Cut" transition * Added support for the SRT protocol (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Reliable_Transport) [boxerab] * This is available by choosing "Custom" under Stream settings > Service, then entering your `srt://` path into the Server box. * Added a button grid mode to the scenes list, which can be toggled via right-clicking on the scenes list [Dillon] * Added ability to lock volume values of audio sources via their right-click context menu in the mixer [cg2121] * Added source icons to the source list that give a more visible indication of their function (can be disabled in the View menu) [cg2121] * Added support for cube LUT files in the LUT filter [jpark37] * Added an option to show all audio sources to advanced audio settings [exeldro] * Added an option to use percent rather than dB in advanced audio properties via right-clicking items in the window [cg2121] * Added a button to save replay buffer next to the replay buffer button (similar to the pause button on the recording button) [cg2121] * Added support for certain devices that can automatically rotate their camera output such as the Logitech StreamCam [Jim] * Added the ability to change the projector type to the projector's right-click context menu [cg2121] * Added the ability to copy/paste multiple selected sources [torresam] * Added an option to enable/disable BTTV and/or FFZ chat extensions when connecting your Twitch account in the stream section of settings [Rodney] * Added a system tray icon to show when the recording is paused [Programatic] * Added a "Custom Quantization Matrix" option to QSV encoder (available on Ice Lake or newer) [brittneysclark] * Added an option to toggle looping to the scroll filter [Dillon] * Added a "Fade to Black" option for quick transitions in studio mode [cg2121] * Added string specifiers to the Filename Formatting option in advanced settings which allows you to specify certain settings such as resolution and FPS to recording filenames [exeldro] * Added a hotkey to reset the stats window/panel [cg2121] * Added help icons when an property has a tooltip associated with it [WizardCM] * Added monitor names in monitor selection context menus [WizardCM] * Video settings now shows aspect ratio of canvas and output resolutions [cg2121] 25.0 Changes/Tweaks ------------------- * Increased default size of color source to the size of the canvas [cg2121] * Increased default size of text in text sources [cg2121] * Increased the number of files you can open with the image slideshow at once [Jim] * Added various minor performance improvements [jpark37] * The mask filter will now reload the mask automatically if the mask file has been modified [omkelderman] * The browser source now uses a monospace font for the custom CSS property [WizardCM] * Redesigned Decklink output UI by combining the start and stop buttons and highlighting them when the output is active. [cg2121] * Removed the older deprecated NVENC encoder in advanced output mode to prevent confusion. You will now only see "NVENC (new)" (which we will eventually rename back to just "NVENC"). Rescaling is now supported on it (automatically falls back to the older implementation internally) 25.0 Bug Fixes -------------- * Fixed an issue where window capture could select an unintended window when opening its properties [Jim/Dillon] * Fixed browser source not loading files with a hash character in the path [Dillon] * Fixed a bug where importing profiles didn't work correctly in portable mode [WizardCM] * Fixed a bug where resizing docks wouldn't work when hotkeys were disabled while OBS is focused [WizardCM] * Fixed a bug where preview wasn't fully disabled when minimized [R1CH] * Fixed a bug where the program could crash on startup if the system had flash installed on it [R1CH/Jim] * Fixed a bug where the media source could sometimes lock up on a frame [Jim] * Fixed a bug where Twitch browser panels would not use dark theme the first time they run [Jim] * Fixed a bug where the recording audio bitrate would be too low when using a custom recording quality in simple output mode [Fenrir] * Fixed a bug where a reconnected stream would drop to 0 kbps and disconnect if using audio track 2 [R1CH] * Fixed a bug when using multiple game captures where the wrong game would sometimes be captured [Dillon] * Fixed a crash when entering large resolutions in video settings [cg2121] * Fixed a crash with PulseAudio on Linux [cg2121] * Fixed a crash on shutdown that could occur after using the auto configuration wizard [R1CH] * Fixed a crash with the VLC and slideshow sources when adding directories containing files with many unicode characters [R1CH] * Fixed a crash on startup if a plugin saved whitespace to its config file (this primarily affected the Tuna plugin) [R1CH] * Fixed a crash when no Decklink outputs are available, such as when the input is active at the same time [cg2121] * Fixed a crash when when no Decklink output device is selected when the output is started [cg2121] * Fixed a crash when using custom RTMP authentication [R1CH] * Fixed an issue where devices could lock up when using the browser source [Jim] * Fixed a few minor memory leaks [jpark37] * Fixed an issue where the program would not let you know that the recording path was invalid [Lqlsoftware]

24.0.1
OBS Studio 24.0.1 24.0.1 Hotfix ------------- - Browser sources will now have their pre-24.0 audio behavior by default; to use OBS to control the browser source audio, users must now use the "Control Audio via OBS" option in the browser source properties. This change was made as a safety precaution because it changed user configurations compared with how the browser audio used to function, which confused some users. - Fixed an issue where certain cameras (particularly C920 cameras) would output with a lot of delay depending on the drivers installed - Fixed a crash on startup - Fixed a crash that would happen when closing the Mixer chat window - Fixed a deadlock that could occur when configuring multiple browser docks in the custom browser docks window 24.0 New Features ----------------- - Added the ability to pause while recording to allow seamless on-the-fly removal of video segments. This can only be used when not sharing an encoder with the stream. [Jim] - Added an option to automatically adjust bitrate when congestion occurs to advanced settings, which is an alternative to dropping frames (available in advanced settings). Note that this currently only works with RTMP, and severe congestion may cause increased delay to viewers. [Jim/pkv] - Added the ability to select multiple sources on the preview by box selection [Dillon] - Added the ability to create custom browser docks in the View -> Docks menu. This allows you to open extra dockable webpages whenever OBS opens [Jim] - Browser sources can now have their volume adjusted via the audio mixer, or have filters applied to them. Additionally, you can now change whether the browser source outputs to speakers or to stream only via the audio monitoring settings in advanced audio properties. [Osiris/pkv/Jim] - Added a script to pause recording when a specific scene is active [cg2121] - Added a "Hotkey Focus Behavior" option to advanced settings, which allows you to set whether hotkeys are disabled depending on whether you have the main window in focus or not [jb-alvarado/Jim] - Added an option to general settings to allow users to confirm when clicking the "Stop Recording" button [glikely] - Added channels widget for restream.io service integration [SoftwareArchitector] - Added the "Area" shader as a downscale shader in video settings [jpark37] - Added an "Enable Preview" button to the main window when the preview is disabled [cg2121] - Added (or rather fixed) hardware acceleration support for decoding media files when using the media source where applicable [Jim] 24.0 Tweaks/Fixes ----------------- - Updated all dependencies on Windows (such as FFmpeg, x264, CEF) to their latest versions [Jim] - Made a number of optimizations and performance improvements [jpark37] - Made a number of performance improvements to QSV [brittneysclark] - Changed default recording format to mkv instead of flv [WizardCM] - Recording now automatically stop if there is less than 50 megabytes left of disk space available [cg2121] - Fixed a number of issues with Linux window capture [kkartaltepe] - Fixed the tray icon showing up on startup even when it was turned off [Jim] - Fixed a bug where encoders could lock up when an encode call fails [Jim] - Fixed an issue where projectors would have a gray background rather than a black background [Jim] - Fixed a bug where secondary Twitch/Mixer browser panels would stop appearing [Jim] - Fixed a freeze that could happen under rare circumstances when shutting down [Jim] - If no tracks are selected when recording in advanced output mode, it will now default to the same track being used for streaming [cg2121]

New Features ------------ - Added the ability to pause while recording to allow seamless on-the-fly removal of video segments. This can only be used when not sharing an encoder with the stream. [Jim] - Added an option to automatically adjust bitrate when congestion occurs to advanced settings, which is an alternative to dropping frames (available in advanced settings). Note that this currently only works with RTMP, and severe congestion may cause increased delay to viewers. [Jim/pkv] - Added the ability to select multiple sources on the preview by box selection [Dillon] - Added the ability to create custom browser docks in the View -> Docks menu. This allows you to open extra dockable webpages whenever OBS opens [Jim] - Browser sources can now have their volume adjusted via the audio mixer, or have filters applied to them. Additionally, you can now change whether the browser source outputs to speakers or to stream only via the audio monitoring settings in advanced audio properties. [Osiris/pkv/Jim] - Added a script to pause recording when a specific scene is active [cg2121] - Added a "Hotkey Focus Behavior" option to advanced settings, which allows you to set whether hotkeys are disabled depending on whether you have the main window in focus or not [jb-alvarado/Jim] - Added an option to general settings to allow users to confirm when clicking the "Stop Recording" button [glikely] - Added channels widget for restream.io service integration [SoftwareArchitector] - Added the "Area" shader as a downscale shader in video settings [jpark37] - Added an "Enable Preview" button to the main window when the preview is disabled [cg2121] - Added (or rather fixed) hardware acceleration support for decoding media files when using the media source where applicable [Jim] Tweaks/Fixes ------------ - Updated all dependencies on Windows (such as FFmpeg, x264, CEF) to their latest versions [Jim] - Made a number of optimizations and performance improvements [jpark37] - Made a number of performance improvements to QSV [brittneysclark] - Changed default recording format to mkv instead of flv [WizardCM] - Recording now automatically stop if there is less than 50 megabytes left of disk space available [cg2121] - Fixed a number of issues with Linux window capture [kkartaltepe] - Fixed the tray icon showing up on startup even when it was turned off [Jim] - Fixed a bug where encoders could lock up when an encode call fails [Jim] - Fixed an issue where projectors would have a gray background rather than a black background [Jim] - Fixed a bug where secondary Twitch/Mixer browser panels would stop appearing [Jim] - Fixed a freeze that could happen under rare circumstances when shutting down [Jim] - If no tracks are selected when recording in advanced output mode, it will now default to the same track being used for streaming [cg2121]
