OBS redux

I'm just trying out the MP win build and noticed that if you want to delete a source: It wil always delete the source that is on top of everything. Even if i selected a different source in the preview and it has the red edit outline around it. it will still delete the topmost source.
(im just tring to use it as i would have done with obs1)

With that same mindset i was wondering about the following: in obs1 it was possible to get a context menu when you rightclicked on the source in the preview window. Will this come back in obs studio?

For the rest it looks awesome. Can't wait to check out all new features that are planned for future builds.



Ps. i also noticed some other small things like not being able to set the keyint nor selecting a downscale filter but i assume that is because it's still in such an early stage.

The keyint is automatically set internally for things like twitch. It functions a bit differently so users don't have to set those sort of things anymore manually.

As for the other things, yea. It's pretty incomplete.

Hello

I tested OBS for Windows with:
Windows 8.1
i7 4770
16GB DRR3 1866Mhz
GF760 1GB
AsRock EXTREME4 Z87
120GB SSD

When I added a screen or windows capture the performance of PC was terrible. I mean, It took me around 3-5 seconds to move/close browser/explorer window etc. Is this normal for this release (YES, I know that this is something like alpha version) or some kind of issue?

Cheers!

Hi, I realy want to test the "OBS-MP-Win-0.5.1", but it wont even start up:

obs32.exe error (0xc000007b)

I did install the "VS2013 redistributables" first.

Any idea?

the release you posted looks wonderful and i appreciate all of your hard work jim. one thing is whenever i add my Roxio Game Capture HD Pro as a Video Capture Device, this starts happening after a few seconds.

ive changed all of the settings as much as i can (although the fps seems to only allow 59.94fps) and fiddled about with it but i still get the same result. again, thanks for all your hard work and hopefully this can be easily fixed :P

MrGreen, I'm not entirely sure yet. The rocket is somewhat of an difficult device because of the way they designed it. I have an idea what it is but I don't have any code for it yet. You might have to wait a bit on it.

GoNinty - Are your roxio drivers up to date? I didn't see any issue with it, though I didn't do much testing with it either. That seems like some sort of decoding issue.

someonepl - Fast windows 8+ monitor capture hasn't been implemented yet. It's currently using the old legacy variant which doesn't work well for windows 8+. I'll get the faster one in eventually.

Julia Mortellaro - We will eventually have both chroma and color key (usable for all source types), but ETA is unknown right now.

My sister is having trouble with her Roxio on this build, it just shows a black screen with two blue boxes. Her drivers are up to date. Any suggestions?

Jim, I was testing out the Roxio a bit (no Quicksync is killing me haha) and my issue was trying to get the audio to work. I had to lower the x264 preset down to Ultra Fast to get it to run without half of the screen looking weird and, afterwards, I re-watched my stream only to realize there was no audio. There seems to be an issue where I can't link the video and audio streams together in the "configure crossbar" settings. Checking the box doesn't work because it resets to unchecked after you close out of that window. I don't know if it's only a Roxio issue or not, but so far that's the only real issue I've had.

Roxio's audio doesn't seem to work unless you first close OBS, open the roxio with roxio software (where the roxio's video shows up), then close it, then open OBS again. After doing that, mysteriously the roxio's audio will start working. I don't specifically know why this is yet, I'm guessing it doesn't have some specific mode for the encoder set, or it's using some other codec by default.
