  • An 18-scene multiview option
  • A “Mask Only” option to the stinger track matte

I think I found a bug...

After streaming to YouTube after syncing my account with Google, I told OBS to stop streaming (side note: if I stop streaming, I also have the button checked so that when I do start streaming, it starts recording as well). Anyway, when I hit the stop streaming button, I got a dialog box that popped up and asked me if I wanted to stop streaming. Yet, I verified that I unchecked that box to make sure that box wouldn't come up before I started streaming. Rebooting the computer doesn't solve the issue. This issue is not seen in V27.0.

Running Windows 10, 64 bit, 1 TB SSD, 16 GB RAM, September 1st 2021 optional cumulative patch from Microsoft Installed, build 190443. 3.2 GHZ processor from AMD.

P.S. The YouTube integration works flawlessly. And, a slight juddering video issue I had in 27.0 also is gone now.

For me using the RC my custom browser docks keep resizing to be really small whenever I open OBS from close. On another computer though the RC remembers browser docks sizing.

After installing and testing, there is a problem with Battlefield V capture (hangs). Version 27.0.1 works fine.

Hello. Unfortunately, for me, most games are not captured properly (hangs after loading) from newer RC versions (even removing and re-adding the game does not do anything). However, in 27.0.1 everything works fine without any problems - I don't know what it may depend on.

Hi. For some reason I’m not able to use Media source for SRT on RC3. Using srt://IP-address:port?mode=listener as input doesn’t show any picture. When opening preferences I might be able to see a picture for second or so but then it usually disappears and on OBS main window it doesn’t show at all. Normally Larix on a phone informs if there are any connection issues but in this case it seems to send video fine - it just doesn’t show up on RC3. With version 27.0.1 I haven’t had any problems with this. I’m using an old 2015 MB Pro with Big Sur 11.6. Sorry if this has been reported earlier.
