main package)

- Provides VAAPI Encoding support via GStreamer (Note that VAAPI encoding support is already inclided in Nobara's obs-studio
main package via FFMpeg)
All of the default encoder names in OBS under the Advanced
section have been patched so that they are prefixed to indicatate CPU
or GPU
for which hardware they use, as well as AMD/Intel
or Nvidia
for which vendor they are compatible with.
We provide https://github.com/nowrep/obs-vkcapture as the obs-studio-plugin-vkcapture
package.
First you need to launch the game using 'obs-gamecapture', like so:
obs-gamecapture somegame
For example, to use this with a steam game in the game's steam command options:
obs-gamecapture %command%
Then in OBS click the + icon under the 'Sources' list and choose 'Game Capture', then press 'OK'. You do not need to pick any kind of window, it will auto-capture when the game is launched.
We provide https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback with the following packages:
v4l2loopback
, v4l2loopback-kmod
Additionally we provide a pre-enabled system configuration for auto-loading the module on boot via v4l2loopback.conf
in the nobara-login
package.
Install the packages:
sudo dnf install v4l2loopback v4l2loopback-kmod -y
Then reboot. Afterwards open OBS Studio and you should be able to use the Start Virtual Camera
option as well as it's configurations.
