API changed from:
------------------------
EXPORT void obs_service_apply_encoder_settings(obs_service_t *service,
obs_encoder_t *video_encoder,
obs_encoder_t *audio_encoder);
void obs_service_info::apply_encoder_settings(void *data
obs_encoder_t *video_encoder,
obs_encoder_t *audio_encoder);
To:
------------------------
EXPORT void obs_service_apply_encoder_settings(obs_service_t *service,
obs_data_t *video_encoder_settings,
obs_data_t *audio_encoder_settings);
void obs_service_info::apply_encoder_settings(void *data
obs_data_t *video_encoder_settings,
obs_data_t *audio_encoder_settings);
These changes make it so that instead of an encoder potentially being
updated more than once with different settings, that these functions
will be called for the specific settings being used, and the settings
will be updated according to what's required by the service.
This fixes that design flaw and ensures that there's no case where
obs_encoder_update is called where the settings might not have
service-specific settings applied.
Add a checkbox named "Enforce streaming service encoder settings"
checkbox to advanced output. Disabling this checkbox allows the user to
optionally disable the enforcement of streaming service encoder
settings. I had a user complain that they didn't want to always have
the service's preferred encoder settings forced on them.
Ensures that the current service's encoder settings are applied to the
encoders used with the simple output. This is always on for simple
output so users don't have to mess with it themselves.
The "rescale" option for streaming in the advanced output settings was
not properly checking the parameter output of sscanf. sscanf returns
the number of values that were found, not the number of string matches.
Adds an 'advanced' mode to the output settings to allow more powerful
and complex streaming and recording options:
- Optionally use a different encoder for recording than for streaming to
allow the recording to use a different encoder or encoder settings if
desired (though at the cost if increased CPU usage depending on the
encoders being used)
- Use encoders other than x264
- Rescale the recording or streaming encoders in case the user wishes to
stream and record at different resolutions
- Select the specific mixer to use for recording and for streaming,
allowing the stream and recording to use separate mixers (to for
example allow a user to stream the game/mic audio but only record the
game audio)
- Use FFmpeg output for the recording button instead of only recording
h264/aac to FLV, allowing the user to output to various different
types of file formats or remote URLs, as well as allowing the user to
select and use different encoders and encoder settings that are
available in the FFmpeg library
- Optionally allow the use of multiple audio tracks in a single output
if the file formats or stream services support it
To accommodate multiple types of outputs, there has to be some level of
abstraction. The BasicOutputHandler structure will give us a way that
we can switch between different output configurations.
