OBS Studio 30.2 Beta 3 is now available for testing! This update adds support for the Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting beta, updated Twitch VOD track support, a new theme system (work in progress, and feedback is very welcome!) a new hybrid MP4 muxer, big updates to Linux encoders including texture support, WebRTC updates, and more!

  • Added support for Multitrack Video streaming [palana]
  • On Twitch, this is known as Enhanced Broadcasting. Currently, this requires Windows and an NVIDIA GPU. Support for other platforms and GPU vendors is planned. For more information, see: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/multiple-encodes
  • When this feature is enabled, the following data about your system will be sent to the streaming service when starting a stream:
    • OBS config info (canvas width and height, frame rate, encoder width and height, VOD Audio Track setting, OBS version)
    • CPU info (name, speed, core counts)
    • GPU info (model, memory, driver version, device ID, vendor ID)
    • Memory info (free, total)
    • OS info (name, version, arch, emulation)
      • Windows info (gaming feature status: Game Bar, Game DVR, Game Mode, Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling)
    • Multitrack Video settings (maximum streaming bandwidth, maximum video tracks)
  • Added support for Enhanced RTMP/FLV multi-track audio and video [palana/kc5nra]
    • Replaces the old metadata-based "VOD Track"
  • Added "Hybrid MP4" output format (BETA) [derrod]
    • Combines fault-tolerance of fragmented MP4 with wide compatibility and faster access times of regular MP4. For more information, see: https://obsproject.com/kb/hybrid-mp4
    • Supports inserting chapter markers into the file via a hotkey or API. These markers are supported by most video players and editing software, such as DaVinci Resolve
  • Added Linux support to the native NVENC encoder [derrod]
  • NVENC AV1 is now supported on Linux
  • Added Linux shared texture support to the NVENC encoder [derrod]
  • Added Linux shared texture support to the QuickSync encoder [kkartaltepe]
