OBS Classic, Open Broadcaster Software (original stuff).
2012
Code:
* Added experimental 7.1 speaker support. I don't know if my coefficients are correct as I don't know the exact math behind downmixing, so it may sound a bit off. At the very least it won't crash with that setting anymore, hopefully. If anyone can explain the correct math or help me out with properly downmixing, it would be greatly appreciated.
* Fixed some other crashes related to x264
* Fixed some mic and audio related crashes, hopefully your microphones should work now
* Fixed some crashes when adding sources, especially the desktop capture source.
* Fixed a major framerate and smoothness bug with the video. Video should now be operating smoothly and at the intended framerates (that your system can support at least). Stayed up to like 5 in the morning trying to pinpoint that one
0.32a - 2012-9-01
* Please email me if there are any issues with your bitrates or unexpected lag for your upload bandwidth -- not a verified issue, but if there are, please let me know
* Please email me (obs.jim@gmail.com) if there are any bugs, if or if you would like to suggest new features
* Added Window and Region capture, renamed source to "Software Capture"
* Fixed bug where most bitmaps were not displaying
0.33a - 2012-9-06
* Updated DirectShow video device plugin so you can type in a custom resolution.
* Changed some internal encoder setting so it gets a bit better quality as well as better compression ratio
* Known issue: Window capture captures windows above when aero is disabled. Not sure if anything I can do about it.
* Window capture will now simply freeze to the last frame if minimized rather than show a horrible black rectangle
* Added a display in the window that shows you your bandwidth usage when streaming, and shows whether your bandwidth demands are too high with a color indicator (green is good, red is bad)
* Greatly improved network code, bandwidth usage will now adjust depending on your throughput
* Fixed 7.1 bug that caused it to sound like there was static (7.1 code is still experimental though)
0.34a - 2012-9-08
* Switched to D3D10.1 to improve compatibility with many GPUs
* Fixed directshow bug where certain resolutions could crash (thanks to R1CH for pointing out the code)
* Added some more network code that greatly improves bandwidth usage. You should now be able to get much better bitrates. (thanks to frostshocker, modnite, kendobear, and d2ultima for helping out with this one)
0.35a - 2012-9-10
* Added a "disconnected by server" message when disconnected by the server

0.37a - 2012-9-16
* More DirectShow bugfixes (R1CH)
* Fixed a major bug with mic audio where certain mics would have a static-like sound and just sound horrible in general.
* Past 20 log are now saved. Now stored in the %AppData%\OBS\logs directory.
* Changed the way settings are saved. All settings are now saved inside the windows %appdata%\OBS directory. (i.e. C:\Users\[windows user name]\AppData\Roaming\OBS). Please use the migrateSettings.bat provided if upgrading from a previous version.
* Added a popup menu when you right click the render window, allowing you to disable it or show the current capture FPS.
* Added setting profiles, so that you can use multiple channels or specific settings for specific situations.
0.38a - 2012-9-20
* Finally started using an installer
* Fixed some bugs in downscaling code, downscaling should now look more accurate
* Fixed bugs in the way data was sent over the network, also should make colors look more accurate (major thanks to R1CH here for helping figure out the issue, wouldn't have found it or known about it without him)

* Added a "Dashboard" button as per the request of some users
