So FFMPEG has the same fps drop issues that OBS has. ## It tells me that my AMD/Intel GPU is not supported or that my GPU doesn't support h264/hevc, but that's not true! Some linux distros disable hardware accelerated h264/hevc on AMD/Intel because of "patent license issues". If you are using an arch-based distro then you can install mesa-git instead of mesa and if you are using another distro then you may have to switch to a better distro. +## Wayland support when? +Recording a monitor on AMD/Intel could be supported, but nothing else. The main issue is on Nvidia. +No matter what others way, Nvidia is completely broken on Wayland, no matter which Wayland compositor you use. +There are tons of issues, and it may work for some users because some of the issues are related to CPU/GPU timing issues, +so if you have a weaker CPU/GPU it might work better.\ +Also some Nvidia APIs only work on KDE/GNOME, sort of, for whatever unknown reason things break with other Wayland compositors.\ +Maybe Wayland will be usable on Nvidia in 5-10 years time. # Donations If you really want to donate, you can donate via bitcoin or monero.
