At TwitchCon, discover how NVIDIA encoders, the NVIDIA Broadcast app, and RTX-accelerated Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting improve broadcasting experiences.
Livestreamers and content creators may sample the newest technology for expediting creative workflows and enhancing video quality at TwitchCon, a worldwide event for the Twitch livestreaming platform.
This covers the Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting functionality for HEVC in closed beta when utilizing the NVIDIA encoder.
To improve their productions, content makers may also take advantage of the NVIDIA Broadcast app, eighth-generation NVIDIA NVENC, and RTX-powered improvements in streaming and video editing tools.
Additionally, the September NVIDIA Studio Driver which maximizes graphics-intensive apps is also available for download. Studio Drivers go through a rigorous testing process to guarantee flawless compatibility while improving functionality, streamlining workflows, and automating procedures.
HEVC-Based Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting
Livestreamers frequently struggle with the trade-off between dependable streaming and higher-resolution video quality.
While watching videos of higher resolution is more entertaining, older or less bandwidth-efficient devices may face buffering during certain streaming moments. Lower bitrate video streaming makes material accessible to a wider audience, but it also introduces artifacts that may degrade the quality of the image.
NVIDIA and Twitch worked together to create Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting in order to solve this problem. With the help of this feature, viewers can now provide numerous streams of various encoded video versions with varying bitrates or resolutions directly from PCs or workstations with NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics cards. This allows for the delivery of the highest-quality video that their internet connection can manage.
Twitch’s closed beta for Enhanced Broadcasting allows for HEVC (H.265) support. Twitch streamers benefit from 25% more efficiency and quality compared to H.264 when using the NVIDIA encoder.
As a result, video will appear to be streaming at a 25% higher bitrate, with better quality and fewer encoding errors or artifacts. This technology makes it possible to stream fast-paced gaming with less lag and cleaner, crisper footage.
All stream versions are produced using a specialized hardware encoder on GeForce RTX GPUs, freeing up the remaining GPU and CPU resources to concentrate on enhancing game performance.
AI-Powered Webcams and Microphones
With NVIDIA technology, streaming is now simpler than ever.
To begin with, NVIDIA’s specialized encoder produces exceptionally high-quality video and PC performance. Additionally, the AI-running Tensor Cores included in NVIDIA GPUs are efficient.
AI can improve hardware accessories and gadgets for livestreamers, which is especially useful for individuals who lack the time or means to put together elaborate audio and visual sets.
With NVIDIA Broadcast, you can turn any home office or dorm room into a home studio without having to buy expensive gear. For microphones, its AI-powered capabilities include Echo and Noise Cancellation; for cameras, its features include Virtual Background, Auto Frame, Video Noise Cancellation, and Eye Contact.
The Broadcast software can be downloaded by livestreamers, or they can use its effects with other well-known creative tools like Corsair iCUE, Elgato Camera Hub, OBS, Streamlabs, VTube Studio, and Wave Link.
Highlight the Important Details
With GeForce RTX GPUs, editing and enhancing video footage on the most widely used video editing apps from CapCut Pro to Adobe Premiere Pro is incredibly quick.
Streamers may take use of AI-driven, RTX-accelerated features like Scene Edit Detection, which divides lengthy videos, such as B-roll stringouts, into discrete clips, and Enhance Speech, which automatically resizes social media videos and reduces noise.
NVIDIA encoders facilitate a faster exporting method. The most popular video editing program on TikTok, CapCut, has export times that can be cut in half by using the dual encoders that are included with the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti GPU and higher, for those seeking maximum performance.
