frame drops

Hello, I use an Elgato HD60 Pro internal capture card to stream and record console games for my youtube channel But I'm having frame drops in the preview window. The reason I think the problem may be OBS and not the card itself is that the TV I use to hear the game sound during...

Hey everyone, first time posting here and I'm out of options. To give a bit of background I've been using OBS 27 and the NDI plugin to stream using two machines for a while now and they work perfectly. A few days ago I updated my OBSs to 28 as well as my NDI to 4.10, however, the audio output...

I've been having this issue when going live on YouTube where my frames sometimes instantly drop, as soon as I start my scheduled stream or any stream, my frames instantly drop rapidly. I usually just end the stream and start up again, and if my frames don't instantly drop, then I don't drop any...

Hey guys. I've gone through a lot of threads with possible solutions to my problem but I can't find a fix for it and I'm kind of desparate now... I've tried every single combination, codec and video format for recording a video with OBS and every single time the result is a video with...

Hello, I'm trying to use VPN for my games but I want to use my normal internet for OBS streaming. How is that possible? I'm streaming on Twitch. Thank you

I have a 4k monitor and want to use the replay buffer to clip things, ut enabling it nerfs my framerate from a consistent 60fps down to 30-40. And if I try to set the recording resolution to 1080p, it still slows down my game. I want to play in 4k and be able to clip things, but I don't care a...

So I'm trying to record gameplay and my camera at the same time but keeping both in full resolution (3,840 x 1,080 canvas) and using separate audio tracks so I can then edit them easily. I have changed a lot of settings but I still get a few skipped frames, which wouldn't be much of an issue if...

I wanna preface this as this is my first time ever posting to any kind of threads or anything and I apologize if this kind of thing has already been around the block. So I'm trying to play Destiny 2 (Or really any other game) with VSeeFace active (for vtuber things) and I'm noticing rough frame...

Hello. I have created several scenes in OBS to use its virtual camera during my online music lessons. Among them there are different sources as screen capturing, screenshot of a virtual piano keyboard, different webcam sources and combinations of all of these. But unfortunately, I can't use...

I have been trying to film a video in obs for a while now. I have two problems: 1. OBS' framerate is terrible, and it was never bad like this. 2. Whenever I start recording it starts streaming - How do I fix that? It says "Encoding overload!" or something like that, and tells me to lower the...

I've been streaming for 2 year now at 1080p 60fps and have had 0 issues through out those 2 years. Come to this month I'm starting to have bitrate issues and frame rate issues out of no where. I'm like 99.9% sure it isn't my internet. I've spent hours trying to troubleshoot this problem on my...

About a month ago, I used OBS to record a game for 2 hours. It worked fine, aside from some quality drops here and there. To fix the quality drops, I changed a few settings (I don't remember exactly which). Since then, even changing the settings I can remember back, and optimizing things (e.g...

Hi Everyone! I have a triple monitor setup. With two LG monitors having two HDMI inputs and my third monitor having both an external VGA and HDMI input. My Current setup is 3060 ti, 16 GB RAM, & AMD Ryzen 5 5600x 6 core. Whenever I record video through OBS of my nintendo switch, it's dropping...

Hi, I have had a coding problem for a week. A week ago, the OBS update arrived and something started to break. When streaming Apex or GTA OBS among others it shows overloaded encoding. Oddly enough, there were no issues playing GTA before the last update. Can anyone help me? My components...

So I started recording/streaming on my RTX 3060 12GB of VRam, AMD Ryzen 7 5800x, and 16GB of 3200Mhz of Ram. Every time I record or stream the recording are either super choppy and laggy and just plain low quality. I've tested every single setting, searched up the most optimal settings for OBS...

I have been trying to use OBS instead of shadowplay because it has so many more features, but no matter what I do I cant get the recording quality to look good without losing an absurd amount of frames while im playing games. (Same thing with streams) Game capture also doesn't work which is huge...

Hello! Last month I got a new PC and I installed OBS to record some gameplays, I use it to record my switch games and sometimes PC games except I cannot seem to stop getting "Encoding Overload" and I've tried turning down recording settings, changing to x264 and even lower the output. I'm...

To start, I stream and record, so I know that uses more resources than just doing one or the other. I'm not sure what to do, or if I'm just crazy, but when I watch my recordings, the framerate looks weird and noticeably drops. I'm not sure what settings to change, or if I even can change any...
