Hey, I posted this in the TL thread but I figure it's better suited here. Is there any chance of making OBS compatible with Intel's Quick Sync Video? Link: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ ... neral.html

I won't even try to speculate because I honestly don't know how Quick Sync fares in this kind of application, but benchmarks look pretty impressive. It was mentioned in several threads on the XSplit forums but was always shrugged off as "something they would look into" quite a few months ago. Can Quick Sync become a viable tool in the streaming world?

Well shucks, I searched before posting this but I must have typed "quick SINC" or something dumb. Oh well :(

I completely understand if this idea is put on the back burner while bugs are ironed out and features are added. I hope it has a chance to be tested, though-- it seems like the kind of thing that could truly separate OBS from other streaming programs and perhaps improve the livestream experience for all!
