PipeWire 0.3.77 (2023-08-04)
This is a quick bugfix release that is API and ABI compatible with previous 0.3.x releases.
Highlights
- Fix a bug in ALSA source where the available number of samples was miscaluclated and resulted in xruns in some cases.
- A new L permission was added to make it possible to force a link between nodes even when the nodes can’t see each other.
- The VBAN module now supports midi send and receive as well.
- Many cleanups and small fixes.
I hate OBS under Linux still doesn’t allow me to use the GPU (using AMD videocard) for encoding.
Don’t blame OBS, AMD’s video encoding is awful in a multitude of ways
owh…? I was hoping it was open-source. Some standard API. or something…
As someone said, there are ways to get it working in OBS.
Does it expose the full feature set using VA-API? I have no clue. I was never able to actually hit the bitrate I wanted.
Please note that cards until the RX 6000 generation do not support B-frames.
AMD’s encoders are garbage, but if you insist, you can use VA-API to get accelerated encoding in the output advanced settings.
