No, didn't know about this. My graphics card software has a similar feature that I suspect is slightly better for performance and works on everything, not just steam games.

Yeah, obs also has similar features - not sure if performance would actually differ, assuming it uses hardware acceleration for the encoding. That said, I suspect this is specifically directed at steam deck, Valve probably wants a built-in, easy to use version there.
