TwitchCon is showcasing the latest technologies for livestreamers, including NVIDIA Enhanced Broadcasting support for HEVC. Content creators can utilize NVIDIA Broadcast and RTX-powered optimizations for improved video quality. The September NVIDIA Studio Driver is now available for download, enhancing creative workflows and optimizing apps.

NVIDIA and Twitch collaborated to develop Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting, allowing livestreamers to send multiple streams from NVIDIA RTX-equipped PCs for higher-quality video. Twitch now supports HEVC in the closed beta, offering 25% improved efficiency and quality over H.264 encoding. This feature is ideal for streaming fast-paced gameplay with minimal lag.

Livestreamers can enhance their hardware peripherals with AI thanks to NVIDIA technologies like NVIDIA Broadcast, which offers features like Noise and Echo Removal for microphones and Virtual Background for cameras. The Broadcast app can be downloaded to transform any space into a home studio without specialized equipment.

GeForce RTX GPUs provide lightning-fast video editing on popular apps like Adobe Premiere Pro. AI-powered, RTX-accelerated features like Enhance Speech, Auto Reframe, and Scene Edit Detection help streamline the editing process. The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti GPU and up come with dual encoders for faster export times.

NVIDIA RTX Video enhances online and native videos for GeForce RTX GPU owners with Video Super Resolution and Video HDR technologies. Video Super Resolution de-artifacts and upscales streamed video for clearer quality, while Video HDR turns SDR video into HDR10 content for more vibrant visuals. RTX Video HDR requires an RTX GPU connected to an HDR10-compatible monitor.
