As a video editor for a big channel, this is one of the biggest updates OBS has ever gotten. Having timestamps embedded in recordings in a non-destructive way that doesn't require workarounds is MASSIVE. I really can't say enough how jazzed I am that they finally found a way to implement this. It will radically improve my workflows.

Finally we get markers. No more scrubbing through footage looking for stuff.

Can’t wait to utilize that chapter marker when it’s in Stable release! Excellent QoL updates for sure

[MrSmitheroons]

I'm most excited about the "Hybrid MP4" thing.

(Basically a Fragmented MP4 until the last second, for recoverability, and then at the end of the recording session, it's quickly converted into a non-fragmented, regular old MP4 for compatibility with more software. If recording got interrupted by a system crash, then the Fragmented file is still usable. Can be manually remuxed to standard MP4 if you want the wider software compatibility, and better seeking in some apps. It's really the best things about using Fragmented and normal MP4.)

I also really do appreciate the random bug-fixes, it all starts to add up to jus a nicer experience. "Just works" more. Nice!

As someone who is all in one creator OBS makers are huge

[DeeArio]

Thanks for covering this! I’m excited for the markers!

[Tulah]

I haven't recorded anything in ages mostly because I can't effectively edit anything without doing some weird shenanigans, but when I did lack of markers in OBS Studio bothered me a lot. Great to see that finally getting implemented.

[EightBitNoise]

scrubbing is one of the major hurdles for me in getting myself to edit but adding markers. This is excellent news.

LET'S HELL YEAH HOTKEY MARKERS I WANT TO HUG SOMEONE

[MarkusGGEZ]

I didn't even know this was possible. Absolutely amazing!

[jonmayer]

Chapter marker hotkey is really cool. I'm glad they're putting work into the video output file to make things better for the users.

[HexlGaming]

timestamps in recording is such a gamechanger

[shirlierox]

Now this is what you call a good update, finally I can add markers to remove when I have a coughing fit, my dog barges into the room and starts scratching or when my phone rings

[JellybeanzWasTaken]

The markers in editing software will save so much time. Can't wait for when it gets out of beta!

Another reason to donate to this project!

[ionrage]

The markers are really good as I use OBS to capture my talking head A roll audio since its just so much easier. The markers will make it great to break up segments of your video, easier to focus on sections of videos with takes.

Since you can just sync the file to the video footage from the camera, actually awesome.

Any ideas if the AV1 stream to Twitch is getting more support?

[poru]

I hope they add a chapters feature to Premiere Pro import from Hybrid MP4. As I am unsure that chapter will work properly or not.
This could save me hours of editing time for long gameplay. As I can mark when I died or something.

[kensonplays]

So looking forward to this coming to stable. It may actually encourage me to start recording for my channel again.

[DerekTurtleRoe]

This update is pretty awesome, nice seeing themes get some love and this might mean it is time to update all my OBS themes now with the new standards. 😅

[eusouoRik]

Markers directly in obs will change a lot my workflow
