Question / Help Is this being worked on?

[Zuull]

I saw that there has been a Mantle SDK beta released (I think). Is there going to be any development or beta for the use of this in OBS? Or would there be a way to implement it myself into OBS so I can finally stream again?

No, it's not being worked on, because it's a beta that you have to register for, and then they actually have to pick you for "consideration", and then it's not even sure that the license is GPL compatible, so we might not be able to use it.

I would love to get it in, but AMD has to stop being so secretive about it and just release it. Just disable mantle in the settings of the game or set the game to use DirectX/Direct3D instead of mantle and you'll be able to stream fine.

Yeah I know I can stream with DirectX (BF4). But I'll be honest, going from 30-45 fps (medium graphics) to 100-120 FPS on Ultra graphics (Mantle), kinda hard to go back. hahah. Plus i got me a nice new shiny toy (Sapphire Vapor X R9 290). It looks so pretty. lol

Does BF4 have borderless windowed mode? If so, you could probably do monitor capture with Mantle on and it would work just fine. Not an ideal solution, but it should at least work.

BF4 does run borderless windowed mode but, still performance drop. :- / I just have my fingers crossed that their SDK will be released soon.
