Hi there,
I'm running OBS 31.0.1 (tried both the flatpack and obs-studio-browser versions of 31.0.0 and 31.0.1, issue happens on all) on a Fedora based distro (Nobara) and having some real issues when using browser sources.
Whenever a browser source encodes a video I experience a huge performance hit. To the point where my normal settings for the past 2 years have to be changed just to keep from dropping frames. I'm unable to stream at 60fps, only outputting 720p, anymore as anytime a stream at 60fps receives information from a browser source I experience an encoding overload.
I am running Nobara 41 with Wayland, on an RTX 3070 running the 570 drivers. I'm stumped. Did some troubleshooting, some of which was I opened the exact browser URL, it's a local bot overlay, in Firefox and played the videos while streaming and there was no issue. The problem seems to lie in how OBS is encoding browser sources.
I've also tried looking for the option to remove hardware acceleration from browser sources, but that's not available in the Linux version it seems.
Whenever I look at the logs, I just see the: encoder overloaded, please try lowering settings.
I don't know where the limitation is coming from. I did not experience this previously to such a degree. I did notice a performance hit but it wasn't this extreme.
