xObsBeam [BETA] v0.9.8-beta

What's Changed​

• dc550b0: Fix crash on socket connection to audio only or video only feed …
• b51840a: Fix peer discovery occasionally failing, sped up property windows loading …

As a fun coincidence, the jump from Beam 0.9.7 to 0.9.8 also introduces the switch from .NET 7 to .NET 8, which has been released a few days ago and is now the latest LTS version. From now on it is used to compile Beam. The binary file size decreased significantly compared to before. Performance improvements could also be expected in theory, though there is no benchmarking done to test and verify this for this project.

Known limitations​

• Frame buffer doesn't work for audio-only sources
• If a source outputs a video format that a compression selected in Beam cannot handle, the feed cannot be processed (in the future Beam should be able to convert the format, but currently it isn't)
• The filter can only be applied to async sources, it will be unavailable for selection on sync sources (e.g. game capture)
