encoding error

Issue with Recording in OBS. My specs: GPU 3080, CPU i9-9900k. My issue: Encoding overload error after countless settings changes and this encoding error freezes my game and PC becomes unresponsive and needs to be hard restarted by holding down power button on PC. I have been recording "Dead...

Hello, I'm an amateur streamer just trying to stream a game for me and a few close friends. OBS shows my consoles screen, and I can see it just fine and also connected my twitch account without any issue, but as soon as I click 'start streaming' OBS gives me an error saying "an encoding error...

I am attempting to stream at 720p and have the option to record in 1080p. Pretty simple right? For whatever reason any time I record I either get encoding overload errors or when I drag my files into premiere the auto tracks are NOT lined up. What the heck? Also, I notice when I start...

Hello there, So i wanted to use my 2nd gpu as an encoder for streaming on Streamlabs. In OBS it worked just fine, I could see my 2 GPUs as “video adapters” in the streaming settings, but in Streamlabs this option is greyed out. I can not select anything. The encoder is set to AMD, the 2nd...

Hi I have been using OBS studio for a few years for djing and podcasting. I recently upgraded to an Elgato HD60 S + and I have been having problems getting my encoding to work for streaming games. I also have problems when I dj or podcast as well. These are the stats for my MacBook Pro, as well...

This seems to happen randomly, sometimes after 40 minutes, sometimes after 3 hours. When I get this error, my stream goes offline and I have to press stop streaming and then start streaming to start my stream again. I have a fairly good pc and encode on my GPU, I've had task manager open...

I've been getting choppy recordings, exclusively when recording in a 2K resolution format, I messed around with the settings a bit and I also get choppy footage when recording in a high framerate (anything above 165 frames per second). 1080p resolution works fine, but I am looking to record at...

Sorry if the pictures are too big or too small this is my first forum post on here. I don't like recording in 720P because it gives way less quality but the error stops when I record in 720p. I think that's the problem and I'm just stupid for making this post. Also sorry for the long post...

Hello. I've been streaming for over a year now, and I've never had any issues like this. I can stream FiveM Gta5 for 5 hours easily, but as soon as I switch to COD MW it has an issue. After streaming cod for about an hour, my stream stops and OBS tells me an error occurred while encoding the...

I stream for a decent 20-30 minutes without any problems and then this error just happens out of nowhere. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.

Hello, I've been streaming regularly for the past two weeks and I've had no issues whatsoever until recent updates (from 3 days ago or something) : the first one introduced this "an encoding error occurred while streaming" randomly happening when I stream, which I've never had before. It...

I don't know what's been going on as of late with my OBS application, I've been streaming for many months using OBS and it's been fine, absolutely zero FPS drops. Lately however, I can't go five minutes without FPS drops! It seems to only happen when I'm on my main gaming screen, but it's never...

Hey all! So, I was running my stream per usual the other night after the new OBS 23 release, and noticed I was getting an "encoding overload" message every single time I streamed. No matter how low or high my settings go, this issue still occurs. So, just to see, I ran my stream, same settings...

I am trying to record/stream and every time I click it, it pops up with "Starting the output failed. please check the log for details. Note: If you are using the NVENC or AMD encoders, make sure your video drivers are up to date." Can anyone help me? :(
