OBS Studio 20.1.2

20.1.3 Hotfix Changes (Windows only)
------------------------------------
* Fixed a bug where the x264 plugin was still expecting the newer x264 library, and wouldn't initialize properly (Note by Jim: a bug in my update script; this slipped by my testing due to the fact that I installed over an older build and had the newer x264 DLL present when I tested)

20.1.2 Hotfix Changes (Windows only)
------------------------------------
* Reverted x264 version to the previous stable build due to AVX512 optimizations causing stability issues on some systems
* Made a workaround for a potential crash that could happen with the game "Life is Feudal" when game capturing it

20.1.1 Hotfix Changes (Windows only)
------------------------------------
* Made a workaround for an issue with new AMD GPU drivers (ReLive 17.10+) that would prevent the AMD encoder from starting up

20.1 General Changes
--------------------
* Added the ability to hide/show items in the audio mixer via the mixer context menu
* Added the ability to use replay buffer in advanced output mode (Note: cannot be used with the FFmpeg output)
* Added the ability to monitor the audio of stingers via its properties
* Added the ability to change the audio fade mode of stingers via its properties
* Added hotkeys to control VLC source playback (play/pause/restart/stop/next/previous)
* Added pulseaudio audio monitoring support on linux
* Updated x264 and FFmpeg to their latest versions, with new performance optimizations for newer Intel processors
* You can now bring up a context menu via right-clicking the mixer or items in the mixer
* Fixed a bug where if you try to stop the stream while reconnecting, the program could freeze up
* Fixed a bug where the window dimensions would not always restore properly from the last time the program was closed
* Fixed an issue where the program would be milliseconds out of sync
* Fixed a linux crash that could happen on program startup
* Fixed an issue where shuffle in the VLC source would always start from the first item
* Fixed a crash that sometimes occur when a connection times out
* Made a workaround for a decklink device driver issue where decklink/blackmagic devices could very slowly go out of sync in the blackmagic source (make sure buffering is disabled if you have this issue; buffering is now disabled by default)
* Disabled v-sync preview rendering on mac to prevent it from having an impact on performance
