GPU Clean Output V1.0.0

GPU-Clean-Output (True Clean Feed without Desktop UI)

The core purpose of this plugin is to provide a strictly clean video feed with zero Windows desktop elements. No taskbars, no accidental mouse cursor movements, and no pop-up notifications on your output monitor. By sending the video straight from your graphics card to the monitor, you get a pure, broadcast-ready screen with ultra-low latency.

Recommended Use Case: The "Virtual SDI Card"This plugin is highly recommended for dual-PC streaming setups (transmitting video from a gaming/production PC to a dedicated streaming PC). It essentially turns your GPU's physical output port into a dedicated broadcast signal source. It functions very similarly to professional hardware like Blackmagic Design (BMD) SDI playout cards, providing a flawless, uncompressed hardware feed without the need for expensive internal PCIe output cards.

The Windows Feature It UsesIt utilizes the Windows 10/11 "Remove display from desktop" (Specialized Display) setting. When enabled, Windows completely detaches the monitor from your regular desktop environment. The OS will not render any UI on it, allowing OBS to take exclusive control and output nothing but the pure video feed.

How to Set Up and Use

• Step 1: Plug your target HDMI or DisplayPort monitor (or the capture card of your streaming PC) into your graphics card.
• Step 2: Open Windows Settings -> System -> Display -> Advanced display.
• Step 3: Select the target monitor and turn ON Remove display from desktop. (The screen will go black—this means the desktop environment is successfully removed).
• Step 4: Open OBS Studio and click Tools -> D3D11 Specialized Display Clean Output in the top menu.
• Step 5: Check Enable Direct Output.
• Step 6: Select your target monitor from the dropdown list and choose whether you want to output the Program (PGM) or Preview (PVW) screen.

Contributions & Future RoadmapI highly welcome everyone to visit the GitHub repository to contribute code and help expand the plugin's capabilities! Pull Requests are greatly appreciated. Some exciting possibilities for future updates include:

• Adding audio output support.
• The ability to output a specific, independent scene (rather than just PGM/PVW).
• Further enhancing the plugin's overall extensibility and feature set.

GPU-Clean-Output (無桌面環境的純淨輸出)

這款外掛最大的重點，就是提供「完全沒有桌面環境」的純淨畫面。把畫面投到外部螢幕時，再也不會有工具列、沒有滑鼠游標不小心滑過去的尷尬，更不會有突然彈出的 Windows 通知。透過硬體直輸，畫面完全由顯示卡送到螢幕，給你無干擾、極低延遲的專業級純淨輸出。

推薦應用場景：雙機直播與「虛擬 SDI 訊號卡」非常推薦將此外掛應用於「雙電腦直播架構」（例如從遊戲/製作電腦傳輸乾淨畫面到專屬的直播推流電腦）。它的運作概念非常類似於 Blackmagic Design (BMD) 的 SDI 影像輸出卡。它能直接將你顯示卡的 HDMI/DP 輸出口變成專業的廣播級訊號源，無需額外購買昂貴的 PCIe 輸出卡，就能獲得無壓縮的純淨硬體畫面。

使用的 Windows 功能它使用的是 Windows 10/11 內建的 「將顯示器從桌面移除」（專屬顯示器 / Specialized Display）功能。開啟後，Windows 會把該螢幕從一般的桌面環境中徹底抽離。作業系統不會在上面渲染任何介面，讓 OBS 能夠獨佔該螢幕，只顯示純淨的影像。

設定與使用步驟

• 步驟 1： 將你要輸出的實體螢幕（或直播機的擷取卡）接上電腦的顯示卡（HDMI 或 DisplayPort）。
• 步驟 2： 打開 Windows 設定 -> 系統 -> 顯示器 -> 進階顯示設定。
• 步驟 3： 選擇你要輸出的螢幕/擷取卡，並將 將顯示器從桌面移除 開啟。（此時畫面會變黑，代表桌面環境已成功移除）。
• 步驟 4： 打開 OBS Studio，點擊上方選單的 工具 (Tools) -> D3D11 Specialized Display Clean Output。
• 步驟 5： 勾選 啟動硬體直輸出 (Enable Direct Output)。
• 步驟 6： 從下拉選單選擇你的目標螢幕，並選擇要輸出 主畫面 (PGM) 還是 預覽畫面 (PVW) 即可。

歡迎貢獻與未來展望非常歡迎大家前往我的 GitHub 提供代碼，或是提交 PR 來為這個外掛新增功能！期待能透過開源社群的力量讓它變得更強大，未來希望能拓展的可能性包含：

• 新增聲音輸出的支援。
• 支援單獨輸出指定的「特定場景」（而不僅限於主畫面或預覽）。
• 其他讓外掛功能更強大的各種拓展可能。
