Its another clip-system.
Nvidia and discord already have this built-in but might be an alternative for other gpus?
Its built-in and therefore independent from gpu and driver or additional software, and independent of the operating system, it even works on the Steam Deck out of the box. This is a feature I waited long time for.
I typically don't keep the nividia or windows gaming stuff turned on. Having it built into steam will be nice, since I use their overlay a lot more. Plus steam deck support is really nice!
It will be nice for Steam Deck and desktop Linux gamers. Discord will never fix their Linux game audio capture, and using OBS for this might be too complex for some people (and has its own issues on Wayland).
BTW I've been using the Vesktop Discord mod for the last little while and the audio has generally worked for desktop streaming. Whenever it doesn't I just fall back to Discord in the browser, which supports audio streaming because Firefox does. (Although of course YMMV.)
People give discord free access to their screens whenever they play a game? This will be much easier to use than nvidia’s (and obs) since it has controller support
