I'm really impressed with Intel Arc Graphics quality in combination of FFmpeg VAAPI AV1 codec. I'm using ffmpeg 8.x by @robsavoury.bsky.social together with OBS at elementary 8 to capture from my PS5. AV1 for video capture and AAC for audio capture at Dark Souls 3. www.youtube.com/live/WKYhyTq...
@robsavoury.bsky.social I did some streaming with the AV1 codec via FFmpeg VAAPI at YouTube. And it looks really good. :)

@gloriouseggroll.bsky.social AV1 creates an amazing quality with its main profile.

While we need a little more time to push out our review for REPLACED, we did make a video to show how it's running on the #SteamDeck so far:
Throughout my gamer history I've pretty much always played a tank in MMOs. Today we're taking a look at a new indie game that aims to evoke that exact feeling, going through dungeons and bosses rouge-like style where your job is being a tank. Let's do it!

There are good reasons to make a Switch 2 T239-based home console - games already look good on a TV screen, there's the chance to boost CPU/GPU clocks significantly - but there are even more good reasons not to do it: www.digitalfoundry.net/features/nin...
These are some of our favorite concept pieces by our internal artist, João Bragato.
Each one reflects a core pillar: the journey, weaving magic, mythical creatures, and Buried family truths.
@compulsiongames.bsky.social My latest Twitch stream of 'South of Midnight' in 1080p with 60 frames per second, captured from my PS5, with the limited bandwidth of non-partners.
It looks pretty good and it is really an amazing game. :)
