Using Nvidia's NVENC with OBS Studio makes Linux game recording really great

I rebuilt ffmpeg src rpm for magiea so I could use OBS with nvenc, That's what I recorded the Rocket League matches with.

I've found OBS can be a little unstable with it though. Have to be careful what settings you change .

Join me tonight for the Linux Gaming Livestream at 19:45 UTC

Seems the "waiting on vulkan" speculation regards Linux and VR is true.

Good stuff

Looks like VR support for Linux will be shown off at SteamDevDays this week, about time

Yep, and this is the one I'll be buying.
Reasons being, it's cheaper, works with the PS4, will eventually work with Linux (some one WILL write a driver), and has 1080@60fps.
Read your post then this crops up,

Quoting: Purple PuddingVery excited! I hope it will be an article about these SteamDevDays too...

By the way, Vive for Linux is useless without games... Hope to see "The Lab" ported too!

I want to try VR really bad but:
1)my pc can't run it for now
2)the VR alone costs a lot (I mean Vive)
3)I don't have enough space in my room to play

If someone have a Vive to gift, I'm here...
Points for optimism :D
