SplitCam review as of May 28, 2025

This document highlights changes to #SplitCam software since December, 2024 to May, 2025. The latest version of SplitCam at this point is v10.8.49.

The last six months have been productive yet challenging. There was a need to upgrade to a new version of FFMPEG, which proved to be very time-consuming. The transition to the new version of FFMPEG affected all the main parts of the program, including streaming, restreaming, and playing back video and audio files. The code related to streaming changed significantly, which required redesigning the program logic to meet the new requirements. Although work on the code is ongoing, we hope the changes will benefit our users by making streaming more stable and high-quality.

Despite all the hard work on the FFMPEG-related code, we managed to release a bunch of new features, updates, and bug fixes. First, I'll highlight the main new features.

Highlights

Continued integration with OnlyFans using API

SplitCam added new possibilities to configuring live OnlyFans stream sessions. Existing bugs issues were fixed. A new web browser engine is now used for CAPTCHA handling, because of problems related to security with the previous one.

Replay Source

This is an amazing new feature! During your streaming session, press a keyboard shortcut to replay the last few seconds of your video. Gamers and live event reviewers will find it indispensable.

3D Transform Effect

Being able to rotate a layer around the horizontal and vertical axes with perspective is helpful for building creative scenes for your streaming sessions.

Key press and mouse clicks in full screen capture

This new feature is intended for people who create online video tutorials, reviews, and training content related to computers and software. Whenever you press a key on the keyboard or a combination of keys, or click a mouse button, the keys are displayed on the screen so that users can see what you are doing and repeat your steps.

Luma Wipe Transition

Very nice transition where users can choose they own semitransparent video files to enable custom scene transitions. Or just use any file from the bundle that comes preinstalled with SplitCam.

Slide and Swipe Transitions

This is a new quite simple but useful scene transition.

What's new

Transition to the new FFMPEG version

This was the most significant change in the last six months. Although the work of adapting the program code to the new FFMPEG functions is mostly finished, we are continuing to test and fix any errors that may arise.

OBS projects import

Importing existing projects from OBS Studio to SplitCam makes it easy for OBS users to switch to our software. SplitCam streamlines the process, and users who switch from OBS love the change!

Rotation of floating layers

Layers that float over the scene can now be rotated around center. Whenever you select such a layer it stops floating and you can rotate it as usual.

Color Source

This is a simple but useful source the just fills the whole layer with an arbitrary user selected color.
