OBS Studio 24.0 Release Candidate 1
Added 2019-08-20 20:30:56 +0000 UTCVersion 24 is almost ready, and is currently in testing!
Here are some of the new features coming to version 24.0:
- The long-requested ability to pause recordings
- A new option to use dynamic bitrate adjustment while streaming instead of dropping frames when internet is congested for whatever reason
- The ability to control browser source audio volume with the audio mixer, as well as apply audio filters, and output audio to stream only rather than desktop audio
- The ability to create custom browser dock widgets so you can have custom web pages opened whenever OBS is opened
- Hardware accelerated decoding of H264 media files in the media source
- Updated x264, FFmpeg, and CEF versions on Windows. x264 in particular has a number of new optimizations that should improve performance for anyone using software encoding
- A whole lot of minor optimizations to the program
It's been a lot of work, but also a lot of fun. If you would like to help test the new release, you can grab it here. Otherwise, it'll be ready within the next week or two. If you have any issues with the release candidate builds, please report it to us on the #beta-testing channel of our Discord, or in the 24.0 Release Candidate thread on the forums.
Thank you all for the continued support!
