rendering lag

I am live streaming not recording. I am having an issue where games will run fine for about (depending on the game) 10 min to 2 hours but mostly around the 10 to 15 min then just major stuttering, so bad that it crashes my gpu unless I stop game play. I have tried to down scale resolutions to...

Hey y'all, I've been working on trying to fix this for several hours now and I still cannot get to the bottom of why my videos are suddenly coming out super choppy/laggy. A few weeks ago I was able to record just fine but now I'm having issues. I've tried turning Game Mode, DVR, Bar, and GPU...

Hello there, I know it's been talked about a billion times but I've never really found a solution - apart from downgrading to 27.0 - and with the new 29.0 version I couldn't fix it either. So maybe I can't search, maybe I don't use the right keywords, anyway here I am today. The problem is...

This issue has come up recently. it hasn't happened at all until recently, been able to record/stream, even do both at times with no issues with frame dropping, until a week and a half ago, I've now started suffering from frame drops. I have a killer pc that can perform these task at once and...

I haven't been able to stream or record over 60 FPS on any game lately. I have a fairly decent rig that has a: i7-8700k 2070 RTX 32 GB of DDR4 I have been able to run 900p at 60 fps in the past, so I don't know what the issue is anymore, I have tried lowering encoding presets, running obs as...

So recently my Warzone streams have started to have lots of audio buffering out of no where. It says im not dropping frames or anything like that but when im tabbed into warzone the audio buffering is really bad. Ive posted my log file and looked in the analyser and it says audio buffering due...

Hi! I'm really hoping someone can help me, I've been troubleshooting something that started happening a couple months ago and still can't find an old topic that helps or quite fits. Sorry for how long this is, trying to be as thorough as I can! My PC specs are: Windows 10 Pro (21H2)...

Today I stumbled upon a very interesting message during my stream: encoding overloaded. The thing is, I have been using the same settings for months now, and havent had a single encoding issue until today. I tried several changes that I found online, but nothing seems to solve the issue. When...

I'm running a very simple scene on my slow slow macbook. The scene is basically a video play back and a camera capture placed left and right. I didn't use streaming nor recording since the scene is to be projected via HDMI. The problem is that frame dropped due to rendering lag is very high. (...

Hi all, I have recently been getting frame drops due to rendering lag periodically in a stream but is very bad if I even attempt to open or do anything on a browser. I have tried a previous version of OBS but the same still happens and I have updated my graphics drivers too, so I'm wondering if...

Hi OBS team. I hope you can help me, because I tried a lot of things but I keep having issues. I have a dedicated capture/streaming desktop and for some reason is missing a lot frames and have rendering lag. If I reduce the resolution, the framerate or the bitrate, the results doesn't change. I...

Hi guyz, I have trubble in last time but problem occured without change something in OBS (I think). Stats are showed in OBS and "FPS" drops from 60 to something between 51-56 and return back to 60. Its occured while streaming and while inactive status too (the same issue). I have good CPU...

Hey guys, as of the last two days I am starting to get rendering lag on my streams. The first issue was that the stream looked jiggery but that was due to windows Game Mode so after disabling windows game mode it resolved the issue. I run the Intel - Core i9-10900K and NVIDIA RTX 2070. At that...

The last couple of times I have managed to find enough time to stream, the stream constantly reconnects. This started happening after I swapped games in midstream during my last stream. I streamed Helltaker with no issues, swapped to Graveyard Keeper, and started having the problem, then swapped...

When tabbing in and out of games, GPU usage hits 100% causing significant rendering lag for about a second. This only happens while OBS is open, regardless of a stream being active or not. The strange thing it appears to be the game itself that suddenly uses 100% of the GPU. This has been an...

Hi Guys, Despite a throttled FPS (48) and a 200mbit upload rate, 400 download rate, we repeatedly missed frames due to rendering delay in OBS Studio when streaming. We also have this problem with only one scene with only two sources (i.e. camera and game). Do you have any idea what it could be...

Awhile ago I posted on here about lag that I was getting when playing certain games like COD. I've accepted the fact that I will get rendering/encoding lag with a game like that, as other games didn't have that problem. For example, I can stream Overwatch and get little-to-no frame loss. But...

Hello! I have a (on the higher side) powerful computer. But I am experiencing rendering stalls/lags on both NVENC & x264. My specs, posted below. As well as a log file. The lag usually occurs when only the game is visible, (windowed full screen & full screen), and I have been testing on...

When not in Studio Mode (i.e. rendering a single preview), I'm seeing a time-to-render-frame of about 2.5ms, and easily maintaining 60fps with 0% frames-missed-due-to-rendering-lag. However, as soon as I tap Studio Mode, this drops aaaaaaallll the way down to ~45ms (and almost 20× increase!)...

Hello everyone, I have been using OBS to stream to Twitch for a little over a year now and am super happy with the software. I recently built a new computer that should have enough horsepower to run games smoothly while providing a high quality stream. Here is the quick summary of my system...
