    Encoding overload - was never an issue until about 2 months ago?

    As title says, I have only just recently run into this problem where I get notified by OBS that I have run into an encoding issue, none of my settings have changed and my hardware is fairly beefy, but it usually happens when switching scenes, sometimes it happens at random while I'm on any given...

    How to improve the hardware for OBS?

    Now I know that after the update for OBS, the hardware is deemed below the minimums specs and thus too weak to make it run properly after the 29.0.2 update, causing the encoding to overload and resulting in bad framerate and the clips to lose several frames per second and thus becoming less...

So I tried to go...
