2.2.1502.1633 Release Notes
Supported operating systems

For hardware and software requirements, see further details here:
https://www.xsplit.com/download
Internet connection
Requires Internet connectivity and HTTPS / HTTP port 80/8080 to be open
For live streaming on lowest settings, a minimum upload speed of 500 Kbps is required
Known limitations:
For a list of bugs being worked on see “Known Issues” section. For other general known limitations see list below.
- CPPCORE-399 - Screen capture issues with multi-GPU combination (Exclusive mode is disabled on multi monitor systems where monitors are connected to separate GPU’s)
See Notes on Limitation.
- Some Origin-enabled games (eg. Mirror’s Edge - DX9) may crash or freeze. We are actively working with Origin to resolve this. A workaround for the moment is to disable Origin overlay by going to Origin client’s Application Settings -> Origin In Game -> Uncheck “Enable Origin In Game”
- XSplit Broadcaster may not be compatible with other similar applications that capture games running at the same time (i.e.: MSI Afterburner, Fraps)
- XSplit Broadcaster is incompatible with some games using GameGuard for anti-cheat protection, hereunder Hero of the Obelisk and RF online. We have tried to contact INCA Internet (developers of GameGuard) but have received no response on this issue yet.
- In DirectX11 games (for example World of Warcraft and Assassins Creed 3), XSplit Broadcaster will not enter into game and cannot capture when Fraps is running. UPlay and Steam has the same problem, since Fraps prevents any other software from capturing in DX 11.
- XSplit Broadcaster may not be able to capture games where MSI Afterburner is loaded. To make it work, do either of these: Run MSI Afterburner after XSplit Broadcaster, or set the "Application detection level" to “Low” in the RivaTuner properties.
- XSplit Broadcaster will run in low performance mode (legacy compatibility mode) on laptops using ATI Enduro switchable graphics (most modern laptops with AMD graphics card). We have to force this mode due to a bug in the AMD Enduro driver. We are working with AMD for a resolution of the issue. No current ETA on a driver update to solve this issue.
- XBC-3806 - AMD Mantle Graphics API is not supported by GameSource
