Caroline Bishop Sep 17, 2024 15:08 NVIDIA and Twitch unveil Enhanced Broadcasting with HEVC support, promising improved video quality and efficiency for livestreamers. At TwitchCon, livestreamers and content creators can explore the latest technologies designed to enhance creative workflows and video quality, according to the NVIDIA Blog. Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting With HEVC One of the standout announcements is the beta release of Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting support for HEVC when using the NVIDIA encoder. This new feature aims to resolve the long-standing tradeoff between higher-resolution video quality and reliable streaming. Higher-quality video offers a better viewing experience but can cause buffering issues for viewers with lower bandwidth or older devices. Conversely, lower-bitrate video streams seamlessly but often lack quality. Developed in collaboration between NVIDIA and Twitch, the Enhanced Broadcasting feature allows for multiple streams—each with different resolutions or bitrates—to be sent directly from NVIDIA GeForce RTX-equipped PCs or NVIDIA RTX workstations. This ensures that viewers receive the highest quality video their internet connection can handle. Notably, Twitch streamers using the NVIDIA encoder will benefit from a 25% improvement in efficiency and quality over the previous H.264 standard. AI-Enhanced Microphones and Webcams NVIDIA’s technologies also extend to enhancing hardware peripherals like microphones and webcams.

The app includes AI-powered features such as Noise and Echo Removal for microphones, and Virtual Background, Auto Frame, Video Noise Removal, and Eye Contact for cameras. Streamers can download the Broadcast app or access its effects across popular creative applications, including Corsair iCUE, Elgato Camera Hub, OBS, Streamlabs, VTube Studio, and Wave Link.
