EverLive wurde in den Versionen v1.2.1 und v1.2.2 veröffentlicht.

EverLive ist ein Open-Source-Userspace-Treiber für die Capture-Karte AVerMedia Live Gamer 4K (GC573), mit dem sich PlayStation 5, Xbox oder Switch auf dem Linux-Desktop spielen und streamen lassen.

Version 1.2.1 behebt Probleme beim HDMI-OUT-Passthrough, ergänzt Audio-Blöcke für eigene EDIDs und bringt einen System-Tray. Version 1.2.2 fügt einen Multi-Zonen-RGB-Wave, einen Standby-Bildschirm ohne Signal und den Startparameter --tray hinzu.

Änderungen in Version v1.2.1:

HDMI OUT passthrough fix (#48)

• The HDMI OUT port on the IT6664 (TX2) now stays powered and unblanked as soon as the upstream source syncs, instead of waiting for the display to signal hot-plug detect.
• Fixes a deadlock where monitors with auto-input switching withheld hot-plug detect until a clock signal arrived.
• TX2 now mirrors TX1’s pixel clock and applies a port-2 calibration so the video PLL locks reliably.

Custom EDID audio (#47)

• Custom 256-byte EDID files automatically get an audio block with L-PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS, so consoles don’t grey out bitstream audio options.
• New --raw-edid (--no-unify-edid) flag keeps the custom EDID bit-for-bit unchanged.

System tray and Studio mode

• Closing the window minimizes the Console Hub to the system tray while streaming continues.
• The tray icon menu offers quick actions: open the hub, start/stop gaming screen or Studio, quit.
• Studio/Headless mode works for HDMI passthrough and audio capture without /dev/video10 or v4l2loopback.
• The play.sh launcher detects v4l2loopback and prompts for elevated permissions via pkexec when needed.

Verified hardware: Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 at 1440p 60/120 Hz, multi-monitor passthrough, OBS Virtual Camera, and bitstream surround audio.

Änderungen in Version v1.2.2:

• Multi-zone RGB wave: A five-zone traveling color effect across LED segments, with adjustable cycle speed (default 3 seconds), selectable in Control Hub.
• Standby screen: When the HDMI input is disconnected or the console is off, EverLive shows a “NO HDMI SIGNAL” screen at 30 FPS on both SDL and /dev/video10, so OBS doesn’t freeze on a black frame.
• OBS V4L2 rescaling: If OBS locks its capture buffer at a different resolution before EverLive starts, EverLive now rescales frames on the fly.
• OBS source tip: If OBS was started before EverLive, toggle the V4L2 source’s visibility or reselect /dev/video10 in the source properties.
• Tray startup flag: New --tray (or --minimized) option launches EverLive docked in the system tray without opening the main window.
