    Do Browser captures that are hidden/in unused scenes impact performance?

    Hello, I've got a OBS profile with a large number of browser captures spread across several scenes, however only one is ever being displayed at a time. I'm just wondering if having these captures in the profile impacts performance even if they are currently hidden? Thanks, Levy

    Mouse lagging/shuttering when screen-recording with OBS on a laptop with DisplayLink-connected external monitors

    Short question - is it an optimization issue that OBS screen-recording may leave a laptop with DisplayLink-connected monitors less responsive? Or, would adopting an even lower recording setting save me from the following situation? I use OBS to record my work sessions, where the sources include...

    Some help adjusting settings for 4K recording?

    I have a 4K monitor and a Quadro RTX 5000 graphics card, and I don't actually even want to record. I just want to enable my replay buffer for 2 minutes in case anything cool happens. The problem is that when I enable it (or even have OBS open), I get a crazy framerate drop. I thought sure, I...

    Does streaming and recording at the same time use more CPU when using NVENC?

    using recording quality same as stream or different quality. Is it just asking more work to the encoder (on the GPU) or is it doing more work on the CPU too?

    Apple Silicon M1 (in new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac mini) is not "blazing fast" in OBS

    Apparently, this CPU is "blazing fast" when it comes to many tasks, but for some reason, it just absolutely blows for streaming (even as a dedicated streaming computer). This thing cannot even do 720p60 on fast. Thats pathetic since even my 4790k (which scores like less than half as this CPU)...
