Adrian TepezHey #Linux people, I'm hoping someone might be able to help with an issue I have. I just recently changed my gpu from Nvidia to AMD, and I don't see the AMF gpu encoder option in #OBS. All my software is updated, and I'm using the official OBS build. Is there something extra that I have to install? The gpu is an RX 9070 XT, and distro is elementaryOS.
Bret Towe@TheHDL glancing at dependency list for arch https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/obs-studio/ I'd guess mesa va covers that without digging into obs more. so make sure you got all mesa packages installed for that
@brettowe I have the VAAPI encoder available which is also for hardware encoding, but the quality is poor compared to NVENC. I wanted to try AMF but I guess it's unavailable unless I install proprietary drivers?
@TheHDL https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/AMF/wiki/Driver%20Linux looks like you have to install a binary for the amf but can prob use the opensource side for everything else still
@brettowe Tried installing that but it didn't work. However, turns out AMD is abandoning AMF and proprietary drivers in favor of Mesa and VA-API anyway, so I'll probably just stick to that and wait for future updates. Thanks. 🙂
