CTOnews.com, November 1 (Xinhua)-- OBS Studio, a popular video streaming software, has added hardware accelerated AV1 coding support for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series "Ada" GPU in its latest 28.1 official version, according to TechPowerUp.

According to reports, the latest version of OBS Studio uses the hardware acceleration of "Ada" GPU to encode AV1 video, which is a royalty-free format that provides the same quality and bit rate as HEVC. This feature is only applicable to the RTX 40 series and currently supports only NV12 (OBS default) and P010 color format. The "zoom" function in advanced output mode is not currently supported.

CTOnews.com has reported that Nvidia said it uses the new dual encoder of the GeForce RTX 40 series, which reduces the waiting time for video export by nearly half. Dual encoders can work together and are automatically assigned to achieve two-way output. They can also record content up to 8K60 through GeForce Experience and OBS Studio.

NVIDIA has previously announced a partnership with OBS Studio to add AV1 to OBS Studio 28.1 Beta 1, based on the recently released HEVC and HDR support. OBS will also optimize the coding workflow to reduce the footprint of all NVIDIA GPU by 35%. The new version will also introduce updated NVIDIA Broadcast effects, including noise reduction and room echo cancellation, as well as improvements to virtual backgrounds.
