Opened in a pull request this weekend and already hitting OBS Studio Git is this HEVC and AV1 codec support for the Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) implementation. This new code in OBS Studio paired with modern GPUs handling real-time AV1 encoding allows for streamers /creators to make use of AV1 or HEVC for RTMP ingestion to YouTube. Google currently supports AV1 and HEVC RTMP ingestion as a beta feature while YouTube's current RTMP recommendation being on H.264 usage. Outside of streaming to YouTube, this functionality for OBS Studio has also been tested with FFmpeg acting as an RTMP server. OBS Studio 29.1 feature work More details on this now-merged code ahead of OBS Studio 29.1 can be found via this pull request. 10 Comments Tweet [INS::INS] Related News LibreELEC 11 Released With GBM/V4L2 HDR Support On x86_64, More ARM Hardware FFmpeg 6.0 Released With NVIDIA NVENC AV1, VA-API Improvements Linux 6.3 Brings Audio Support For Tesla's Full Self-Driving SoC dav1d 1.1 Released With More AVX-512 Improvements Open-Source Software Encode/Decode For H.266/VVC Progressing FFmpeg Is Ripe For More AVX-512 Optimizations About The Author Michael Larabel Michael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
