StreamFX stable is only available for OBS 27.2.4, there is no official stable release for OBS 28. The next version of StreamFX is in development but there is no planned timeframe for it to become available. The author has stated that it will probably reach stable in the OBS 29 or 30 timeframe, and will also be dropping support for Windows 10 in the future as well. The best thing to do for now is to use OBS 27.2.4 with StreamFX 0.11.1 for stable production setups.
To be exact, once Windows 10 falls below 30% in steam hardware surveys, that's when I'll drop it. No point in keeping something around that less than 1/3 of people use. I went prevent people from building from source, but official binaries will eventually cease to support Windows 10.
The release notes for that release of StreamFX indicate that OBS 28.x is incompatible. I've made a spreadsheet to document the compatibility of various plugins across different OBS releases:
oof thats gunna suck.... my PC cant run windows 11
This, it's basically the same as the Win7/Win8 situation. Eventually Microsoft stops pushing non-critical updates to the older OS, and then it becomes a game of "work around the bugs, or drop support for the platform". And it's much easier to just drop the platform, especially with next to no funding - contrary to a weirdly popular belief, StreamFX is not made by or affiliated with the OBS Project.
Hello, I need help, the latest version of streamFX, it does not appear in the OBS plugins folder. I installed the 11.1 alpha version, it installs, it appears in the plugins folder but it is not in OBSStreamFX is a plugin to libOBS (OBS Studio, StreamElements OBS Live) that adds new sources, filters and transitions to give you the ability to drastically improve your stream and recording setup past what was possible in OBS Studio until now. Whether it is blurring out a region, moving something in 3D, or just writing your own shaders as a new transition, source or filter - StreamFX has it all.
That's something you'll have to ask NVIDIA, but generally HEVC is more complex than H264, so the logical conclusion is that at the same settings, HEVC will require more work to encode.
Cheers, sadly I did try to search up nvidia documents, but there are no details about HEVC from them (your guides are the closest thing to even showing some info).
