Being on @Naaackers podcast was great fun. If you want an insight into how I got where I am & what I do now, go check it out!

Weirdest part of this experience was that I kept forgetting specific terminology - "Angular", "elderly", etc. See if you can spot it when it happens. 😂

ICYMI, last week we did a podcast with @WizardCM - a community moderator and contributor for @OBSProject . I might be biased, but I think it was a great episode. It's been uploaded to all platforms in case you want to check it out.

@MichaelShanks @dhewlett @YouTube I was caught red handed watching it at 2x. You two are hilarious together and I hope we someday get more of you two on screen again.

@Corgynopolis @Warchamp7 @LeeandLie To be clear: as long as you're using "Paste (Reference)" it'll behave about the same as a nested scene. Browser Sources, among a number of others, are explicitly denied from "Paste (Duplicate)" for a number of reasons, including performance.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Corgynopolis @Warchamp7 @LeeandLie Both Warchamp and I have spent many years in web development, and we both know our way around OBS internals. The upsides of hardware acceleration outweigh the downsides of CPU rendering most of the time.
There will be edge cases, sure, but I wouldn't suggest it 99 times of 100.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Corgynopolis @LeeandLie If a browser source has heavy load on a GPU, then the website itself needs optimization. Most will behave correctly.

GPUs are great at graphics. That includes animations, videos, etc - precisely what most browser overlays are designed around. Higher GPU usage > laggy animations

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Corgynopolis @LeeandLie Do not disable hardware acceleration in any browser, including in OBS, unless you're forced to due to system instability. Your GPU is much better at rendering than your CPU.

@Alanhudds @OBSProject Please be sure to stop by the Discord so someone can help track down the cause and help fix it for you.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@primemovies Oh, you know. #SaveStargate

Bonus: Just because the Plugin Manager says a plugin is "Legacy" doesn't mean you have to manually move files around!

Give plugin devs time to update on their own. They have a whole year to do it!

[Matt @WizardCM]

Fellow @obsproject users!
Two important things.

You don't HAVE TO update immediately! You especially don't have to update *right before stream*. Bad idea!

Second, if you run into bugs, especially new crashes: please report them!
I'm working hard to fix browser-related bugs ASAP

@m_rosenbloom28 I loved Sanctuary from the get go. I've only seen Farscape's first season and have not been pulled to watch more yet (though it's on my list).

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Hanagami123 @SpiderBrian_ It seems to be, yes - though it's less clear because in my case I think the right side showed 3 weeklies unlocked for me on Week 1 when the left only showed 2.

I'm personally hoping this means Challenges are being overhauled & won't require playing modes we don't want to.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@XayStationTV @nuttylmao @obs They're sorted pinned and global first, then alphabetically - your best bet is to either pin or rename.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Jack2LOneill SGU: Chloe, poorly written until alien blood.
SGA: Weir, signed on for full run alongside main cast, relegated to side character, killed off.
SG1: Sha're, Shau'nac, Drey'auc twice - all three nothing more than a damsel in distress, all three killed off.

[Matt @WizardCM]

I loved Wandavision.
I think Stargate is well overdue for a female showrunner.
This has great potential.

But I don't trust Amazon's current execs to respect the existing work and lore.
I hope they don't shaft Jac like they did Martin.

'WandaVision' Creator Jac Schaeffer to Develop 'Stargate' Series at Amazon (EXCLUSIVE) https://t.co/zC8cY61l18

[Matt @WizardCM]

@InterwebsDriftr That's the reverse of what she said. Sounds like a rewatch is in your future!

[Matt @WizardCM]

@xdabluesfan Based on their experience with Martin, I expect they're trying to choose people they can order around, rather than people who will stick to what's best for Stargate.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@Madmart54370041 @Hodgo84 Because both can be true.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@BajaSwitaki Yup - we want Stargate to succeed. And the way it does that is by respecting what came before, and respecting the fans. Since June, Amazon has decided we don't matter, and they continue to double down.

[Matt @WizardCM]

@chonnycanuck 100% agree.
