OBS redux

[Lain]

RobertAHeim - Game capture shouldn't particularly be necessary for OSX due to the fact that games don't run in fullscreen mode on it. That being said, a game capture type thing is possible to do, but a bit more difficult on windows due to mac's security features. If at some point it becomes necessary or if normal screen capture isn't efficient enough, I'll probably look in to it, though so far screen capture has been very efficient.

king_sitm - Could you be a bit more specific about what you mean when you say "audio lag"? Do you have a video/vod of this?

I wish CamTwist would work in OBS Studio for MacOSX, but it doesnt. The app crashes when u add this as a video capture device.

For those having trouble with CamTwist + OBS on Mavericks (10.9.4), I think I've found [part of] the solution. I installed the CamTwist 3 beta and, in preferences, set the resolution to "Custom" using 1920x1080. Not sure if this is circumstantial or if I'm actually onto something.

Has anyone else had luck with different settings?

Keep in mind that if you increase the frame rate, you will increase both CamTwist and OBS's CPU usage. For me (for now) I'll use CamTwist for a nonessential, windowed element (maybe twitch chat, or currently playing track in iTunes) so I can keep the frame rate low.

will be support for x265? Also will be possible to run in dx9 mode? Right now its required dx10.

king_sitm - You might have to wait until the next update when I add in some more logging information.

 

[Julia Mortellaro]

[Lain]

Not yet, going to release it all with the next update.

 

[schofield1999]

[gozach]

Jim, is there a way to change the size of the area of the screen that is being broadcasted? I want to show part of my screen, not the whole thing.

gozach - Cropping hasn't been implemented yet. It's pretty important but it'll have to wait until we implement filters.

Install the CamTwist 3 beta. It comes with a plugin that enables any application to use CamTwist as a Video Input device which OBS can use.

[Julia Mortellaro]

what would be cool if there was a hotkey to change the scene of stream so you don't have to exit out of game and press it and show your desktop

That's on the agenda, patience young grasshopper.
