0.9.1

OBS Multiplatform 0.9.1

Changes:
* Fixed a memory leak that could occur with async (video/media) sources under certain circumstances

* Fixed a bug with advanced output mode where service-enforced settings would be applied to all audio encoders rather than the audio encoder that was assigned to the stream

0.9.0

OBS Multiplatform 0.9.0

General Changes:
* Added video/audio filtering; you can now access filters for a source by right-clicking the source and then clicking 'Filters' from the popup menu.  These filters can be applied to any compatible source.

* Added media source (plays video/audio media via FFmpeg)
* Added Blackmagic device capture source to capture Blackmagic devices (Mac, Linux, Windows)
* Added visibility indicator to the source list to toggle visibility in the current scene
* Added mute button to sources on the mixer
* Added option to select different themes in general settings
* Added a dark theme
* Added a menu option to view the current log file in the help menu
* Fixed an issue where service-specific settings would not be set again when changing encoding settings

Linux Changes:
* Added an option to video device capture to optionally buffer the video (off by default to reduce potential lag issues with webcams)
* Made various improvements to video capture on Linux

Mac Changes:
* Added an option to video device capture to optionally buffer the video (off by default to reduce potential lag issues with webcams)
* Fixed an issue where game capturing (syphon) wouldn't work on 10.8
* Fixed an issue where certain mac audio outputs with channels > 8 wouldn't play, now will be forced to stereo if needed

Windows Changes:
* Made devices turn on by default when creating a video device capture source rather than off by default to prevent confusion for users
* Fixed an issue where canceling settings would cause the video to freeze
* Fixed an issue where games wouldn't initialize with game capture sometimes, or would take a really long time to initialize (especially CS:GO)

OBS Multiplatform 0.8.3

Changes:
* Fixed a bug where you wouldn't be able to connect to anything again after your first connection ended
* Fixed a bug with RTMP authentication
* Fixed a crash in advanced audio properties dialog
* Fixed a potential issue where encoders might lose their service-specific settings accidentally (still might be a slight issue with it if you try to update settings in real time, will fix)

* Fixed a bug where you couldn't duplicate sources in a single scene

Mac:
* Fixed a bug where audio input/output capture sources would not update when properties were changed

0.8.2

OBS Multiplatform 0.8.2

Changes:

* Fixed a bug where custom encoder settings in simple output mode wouldn't be saved or marked as changed
* Fixed the layout for the advanced audio properties where the labels wouldn't align properly and long translated text names would get cut off
* Added an option to advanced output mode streaming tab to automatically enforce the current service's recommended stream settings, or rather allow them the option of turning it off if they don't wish to enforce those settings.  (Note that service settings are always automatically enforced for simple output mode)
* Added an "Advanced" settings pane to the settings window, with "Color Space", "Color Range", and "Audio Buffering Time" options (Color Format to be added later)
* Added support for IPv6 (without crashing the mac build this time)

Mac:
* Renamed "Syphon" source to "Game Capture (Syphon)" for the sake of clarifying its purpose

Windows:
* Fixed a crash when using video capture devices

Hotfix:
* (0.8.1) Hotfixed a bug where streaming wouldn't work properly on mac (blame the QA, aka blame Jim)

  where that same audio source was in use
* Fixed possible FLV corruption bug that could happen under certain
  circumstances
* Fixed a potential crash that could happen when either recording or streaming

  duplicated due to thread scheduling, improved the accuracy of frame timing,
  and improved the handling under higher CPU usage (and high-CPU presets)
* Fixed a few user interface flaws with the properties window where the
  properties section would get too big of would expand past its limits
* Fixed a user interface flaw with the volume mixer where the volume controls
  would expand to the right if the name was too long, making the volume sliders
  difficult to use

  capture devices), reducing CPU usage from what it was
* Projects now save whenever streaming/recording is started, and also at every
  20 second interval
* Fixed a UI bug where double-clicking with buttons other than the left button
  would still open up the properties of sources in the source list

  performance and new features such as:
    - multi-adapter compatibility options (SLI/laptop)

      that's safe to use with other hooks
* Added fast windows 8+ monitor capture support
* Added a 'Buffering' option to device capture that allows the user to select
  whether the signal should be buffered/timed or played right away
