OBS Studio 27 adds Undo/Redo, Wayland support, browser docks
OBS Project has released OBS Studio 27, introducing new features such as Undo/Redo functionality, improved display capture for laptops, and a missing files dialog. The update also brings browser docks to macOS and Linux, native Wayland support for Linux, and NVIDIA Broadcast noise removal integration for Windows users. Track matte stingers for transitions have also been added.
Key Takeaways
- Undo/Redo now tracks up to 5,000 actions in a session, then clears on scene collection switches or app restart.
- Display Capture on laptops can now capture displays on different GPUs without user configuration, using Windows Graphics Capture.
- Browser docks are now available on macOS and Linux, adding Twitch and Restream account linking plus built-in chat inside OBS Studio.
- Native Wayland support on Linux uses PipeWire and XDG Portals, with Ubuntu 21.04+ support in the Ubuntu PPA and Wayland support on Flathub.
- The built-in Noise Suppression filter now supports NVIDIA Noise Removal for users with supported NVIDIA GPUs and the NVIDIA Broadcast Audio Effects SDK.
Why It Matters
OBS Studio 27 removes several workflow frictions that matter directly to streamers and production teams: undoing scene, source, filter, stinger, and script changes now protects complex live setups, while the missing files dialog and improved laptop display capture reduce setup errors. The release also closes platform gaps by bringing browser docks to macOS and Linux and adding native Wayland capture on Linux, which broadens where OBS can run cleanly. On Windows, NVIDIA Broadcast noise removal extends the built-in filter stack. Watch how quickly third-party plugins and Linux distros align with the new Wayland and missing-files behaviors.
