OBS Studio 32.2 Beta is now available! Windows/macOS users can switch Update Channel in settings. GitHub: github.com/obsproject/o... This update includes a brand new window for adding sources. Please test and give us feedback on our Discord before the full release!

Another question we were asked a lot during #gamescom was "How do we support OBS?" Everyone knows that OBS is free but not HOW it is free. At it's core, it is a philosophical choice. OBS is open source, the code is available to everyone (with conditions).

It's ongoing development is supported by volunteers and cared for by a few full-time contributors. Millions of users around the world create content by using it. You can support the development of the project by visiting obsproject.com/contribute to support us via Patreon or the Open Collective

It's official! 📣 We'll be attending gamescom for the first time later this month. If you'd like to speak to us about the project, OBS Studio specifically, or how your organization may want to work more closely with our team we'd love to chat.

In OBS Studio 32.1 we updated the audio mixer and simplified audio monitoring. In 32.2 we removed the old options from the advanced audio properties. In 33.0 plugins and third party tools will require updates to use the new handling. You can still get the same results as before though! 👇

OBS Studio 32.2 is now available! Lots more quality of life adjustments and code cleanup as we continue to concentrate on user experience, stability, and long term project health. The biggest change this patch is the overhauled Add Source window. github.com/obsproject/o...

The new Add Source window includes previews for active sources and a Recently Created tab, making it easier than ever to set up new scenes or find that one video file you know you already added somewhere. Preview updates are staggered and cached when possible for efficiency.

This update also has some adjustments to how libraries are loaded that may have unintended side effects for certain plugins loading properly. We are working to resolve any issues that come up so PLEASE test the beta and let us know of any issues.

OBS Studio 32.1 is now available! Alongside the usual tweaks and fixes, this release continues our steady work tidying up the codebase. This release features a complete rewrite of the Audio Mixer, cleaning up code, and adding new functionality.

Next release we're aiming to update the workflow for adding sources by replacing the popup menu with a new window, which includes previews. We are looking for more users to test this update and provide us feedback. Visit our Discord to try it out and share your thoughts early!

Both the vertical and horizontal mixer layouts have been updated, and vertical is now the default. Note: Due to how OBS saves default settings (It doesn't), if you've never changed layouts your UI will get swapped to vertical. Horizontal is still available!

New Additions - Pinning sources - Toggle of hidden sources - Toggle showing inactive sources - Previewed sources in Studio Mode This rewrite also means future updates are easier. Support for sorting the mixer is planned.

New users will start with better default settings! Our crash resistant Hybrid MP4 video container (Hybrid MOV on macOS) is now the default recording format. We also decided it's probably safe to bump up the default streaming bitrate to 6000 after being set to 2500 since 2015.

As always, we’re thankful to our dedicated community of developers, testers, and support volunteers who help make this project possible. If you’d like to support the project, you can find us on both Patreon and Open Collective. obsproject.com/contribute

As part of these updates to crash handling, we've removed the ability to disable the clean shutdown check. This has already provided us a LOT of information about crashes we weren't aware of before and situations where it was showing up incorrectly that we will be fixing.

NVIDIA Broadcast integration in OBS has received several updates! RTX Background Removal now has support for chair detection and removal, a new Voice Activity Detection option was added for audio devices, and several optimizations have been made.

Our work on the long requested Plugin Manager is finally underway! The initial version included in 32.0 lets you enable and disable plugins in OBS Studio without having to dig into your filesystem. Additional functionality coming in future updates👀

Our crash handler has been reworked on Windows and macOS, including an addition to the startup prompt to upload crash logs to us after a crash so we can fix them! We can only fix crashes we know about, so we hope this makes it easier for people to send them to us!
