Software Update: OBS Studio 25.0.8

Version 25.0.8 of OBS Studio has been released. Open Broadcaster Software Studio is open source and cross platform software intended for recording and streaming video from one or more sources, such as a webcam, microphone, media files and the desktop. In version 25 of OBS Studio, support for games running on Vulkan has been added, among other things. Since version 25.0.4, the following changes and improvements have been made:

25.0.8 Hotfix Changes

• Added status icons next to the timers for recording and streaming
• Added white icons for dock titles
• Added an actual name for files when browsing for LUT files
• Fixed media source not closing file when inactive
• Fixed certain services not properly updating their server information on Windows
• Fixed multiview not rendering correctly on macOS
• Fixed a minor memory leak
• Removed the requirement for the replay buffer hotkey now that there’s a button to record a replay

25.0.7 Hotfix Changes (macOS)

• Fix an issue with text sources on OSX 10.13
• Fix an entitlement issue that was breaking plugins
• Fix running OBS on macs with case sensitive file systems

25.0.6 Hotfix Changes (macOS)

• Prevent closing vst plugin windows from the window UI for now to avoid a crash. You can still close them from the filter properties.
• Make syphon plugin use ARC to fix some memory issues we ran into

25.0.5 Hotfix Changes (macOS)

• NOTE: MacOS 10.12 is no longer supported as of this release, due to the need to upgrade Qt for the latest versions of macOS.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when using secure input fields on macOS. Because of a likely bug with macOS Catalina that was causing this crash, if you use secure input while using OBS, external hotkeys will no longer function for the duration of the program, so if you use hotkeys with OBS, we do not recommend using secure input while using OBS. (This is a temporary fix to the crash because the only way to fully work around it is likely rewriting the entire macOS hotkey system to a different hotkey-capturing method)
• Fixed an issue where performance would be severely impacted when using Studio Mode on macOS
