Ultra.
The latest update introduced a variety of new features, but before we get into what is new, there is vital information you need to know before going live.
Before you go live:
This update contains an update of the NVENC encoder causing some users to experience issues when they go live. This issue is caused by out of date video drivers. To fix this, please do the following:
- Make sure you download and use the latest version of Streamlabs Desktop.
- If you are using an NVENC encoder, update and/or perform a clean re-installation of the latest Nvidia GeForce GPU driver.
