    High CPU Usage Since Update to 27.2.1

    I've noticed today that all my games are lagging as I am streaming where it never did it before. So I opened up task manager and now since the update OBS is using 60+% cpu whereas it only used 20% avg with my current settings. Now its 40% higher. And now it's barely using any gpu which before it...

    Screen recording (no streaming) Video randomly freezes

    I've been using OBS to record youtube tutorials. I don't use any streaming, just for local recording. Consistently I've been experiencing that the videos will have spots about every 2-3 minutes where the video will freeze, audio continues, for 5-10 seconds and then resume. I've checked the...

    CPU usage: Browser source better than local file?

    Hello there, I'm trying to optimize my cpu load (older cpu) while streaming. I watched some videos where they say, that it's better to use browser sources instead of local files. But how does that make sense? The browser source must be rendered like everything else right? Or is it about...

    H264 or x264?

    Hey dear, Open Broadcasting Software forum! Today I changed to H264/AVC Encoder (AMD Advanced Media Framework) which was before on "veryfast" x264.. I also did experiments on medium up to ultrafast (ultrafast is too extremely pixelated, and medium is not pixelated, and in realities like "The...

    AMD GPU Hardware Encoder 0.1.0

    OBS ships with an existing AMD GPU encoder which is sadly outdated and unmaintained. This plugin is a rewrite of the original fixing several bugs in the process. As an additional feature it supports texture based encoding which makes GPU encoding even less CPU intensive. In it's current state...

    Forcing OBS to render using a different graphics card

    This is a very unique situation so hear me out. My goal here is to make obs run and render exclusively using one of the gpus in my computer. I would like the other gpu to be used for everything else. This would be very easy, except for the fact that the 2 gpus are a geforce gt 710 and a radeon...

    2 instances of OBS Studio on Integrated Graphics and GPU for church service

    I read in some forums (including here) that you cannot use 2 GPUs at the same time in streaming. I'm just hoping for that slim chance that an integrated graphics and a GPU might work at the same time. Here is my supposed plan: In our church we have 2 projector screens placed front of the...

    GPU 0 and GPU 1

    Hey guys does anyone know how I can find out which GPU is which ? I have a 2080ti 11 GB and a MSI 1650 I'm assuming the 2080ti is GPU 0 But I want to make sure so I can stream off the 1650 If not setup correctly it would be useless. Thank you

    Hey guys! Sorry if this post was already made, I've read about 5 different ones that could have been related to my problem, but nothing fixed the issue. Pretty much, the issue is that OBS Studio, under the Settings>Output>Streaming>GPU setting, I have it set to 0 so I can use my card 0 to...

    Xbox Stream stutters - GPU upgrade ok?

    My Setup now is not the best: i5-2500k | Gtx 1050ti | 16gb ddr3 RAM the thing is, because i can not spend that much, i‘m not sure what i should upgrade first. My thoughts are to upgrade the GPU first, because i use the new NVENC to stream and have room for my CPU to do the rest. The Stream...

    FPS and frames (rendering and encoding, NOT INTERNET) dropping suddenly during transmission.

    The title is self-explanatory. The problem happens suddenly, after approximately 30min/1h30min of transmission, and, sometimes, it "corrects" itself. It usually lasts more than half an hour. Which is extremely annoying. I've tried everything. All possible configurations. Both output and video. I...
