ffmpeg

I'm trying to stream to twitch using the Custom Output FFMPEG. But before I stream I usually output to file instead of URL for a quality test. Changing the bitrate in the bitrate option does not control the bitrate of the output video. I am unable to change it using the custom encoder settings...

I recorded with nvenc hevc and flac for matroska, but the video looks like this: When i tried it with quicktime, changing only flac to alac, the video looks normal: log file: https://obsproject.com/logs/iwtFgoKxfdd8GLvd As far as I can see, settings are not my problem, but the parameters I...

Utilized version of the software for the sake of writing this post and report the problem: Mainly OBS 25.0.8 (installed from the .exe file) but also the others mentioned in the text...

UPD 17 Mar 2021: Now that the amazing SoraYuki published their obs-multi-rtmp plugin, you probably don't need this guide anymore, as the plugin is a lot easier to use. Like, a lot easier. But if you need FFmpeg filters, or you need to output at different frame rates, keep reading. Before you...

Apparently there is a bug in current FFmpeg version that obs is using. Nvenc B-Frame Reference Mode doesn't work. When it is enabled my recording starts and after 2 seconds drop's bitrate to zero. If i try to stop recording, UI button just freezes and i have to kill obs process. Without this...

I want to use OBS Studio ver. 24.0.3 to record only audio in wav format. The problem is when I record, and then I press the stop button and it turns to stopping record. And, then I press it again. I always get left with 78 byte wav file that contains no audio. Heres my settings: Here's the...

I've just installed O.B.S., and when attempting to record with NVENC (hardware encoder), I receive the following rather unfriendly message: The most baffling thing is that when O.B.S. starts, it reports that NVENC has been detected: I'm very inexperienced with O.B.S. and ffmpeg in general, so...

Hi guys! I'm having a little problem with OBS in Linux. My ffmpeg already have nvenc working, but still, OBS can't use it as a encoder for streaming/recording. I'm on Ubuntu 19.04, Nvidia Proprietary Drivers installed, CUDA, everything is working fine. I've already tried the official...

Hello! How i can get version ffmpeg in OBS on windows ?

Running through custom output settings to try nvenc hevc encoder. mkv is my file preference but I don't see it in container format besides matroska and timestamp. Mp4 and mov is a loaded gun and flv doesn't do audio. Unless its under a different name? Or is there more settings to tinker?

Hello. Is there any plan of upgrading FFmpeg (libav*) version for Windows? I'm building plugin executables (DLLs) for Windows, and I wonder if FFmpeg API change could break my DLL on a newer version of OBS.

I'm having an issue with audio recording using the FFmpeg custom output. I chose the container format "adts (audio)" with CoreAudio AAC encoder installed. But when trying to stop the recording, the button is stuck at "Stopping Recording..." until I press it again. Basically, I have to press stop...

I (successfully) installed NvEnc and ffmpeg from source using this guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/778100/how-to-install-compile-nvenc-in-ubuntu However I am unable to use ffmpeg vaapi with NvEnc enabled and can only use the default NvEnc setting of obs. Cpu utilization is 165% (400% =...

Long story short, I'm currently using restream.io as the streaming output/source in OBS (for Mixer and Twitch). Since Facebook Live has a cost in restream.io, I'm using a workaround of utilizing the SETTINGS > OUTPUT > RECORDING > CUSTOM OUTPUT > OUTPUT TO URL in OBS. The problem I'm having is...

Hello. I don't know why, but it seems there is no b frames. (checked via shana encoder. there were only I and P frames. advanced output had b frames.) Parameter I tired are -preset slow -level 0 -rc vbr_hq -rc-lookahead 32 -qp 0 -cq 0 -bf 3 -2pass 1 -no-scenecut 1 -b_adapt 0 -weighted_pred 1...

I'm trying to record to ogg file using ffmpeg (custom output option), but I get "An unspecified error occurred while recording", and in the log there written: "Couldn't find encoder 'theora' ffmpeg_data_init failed". How can I solve this problem? My PC configuration: Windows 10 Pro Intel Core i3...

Just a couple of questions I was curious about. First, how come OBS doesn't use ffmpeg libraries from something like the newest stable release of ffmpeg? I understand it requires viewing ffmpeg change logs and modifying some library importing code, but it should be a fairly easy feat to do. I'm...

Hello all, made a post similar to this about 9 months ago but since have acquired more information and am hoping to find a solution. Basically my problem is that my main display is 3440x1440 @ 100Hz while my other displays are 60Hz (4k & 1080p), this resulted in extremely choppy capture no...

Hi, I'm one of those people who have the 'black screen issue' because I'm using my laptop and I have an external and an embedded GPU. The problem occurs when trying to capture the desktop, and many of other windows like ... chrome. So pretty much, I can't capture anything. However, using ffmpeg...
