Yes, I have the latest drivers, even upgraded all the other drivers just for fun.
Old OBS works with NVENC without any problems, runs perfectly there.
BUT, I do want to upgrade to OBS Studios due to the more support, scripts, add-ons etc that come along with it.

https://puu.sh/CTR6G/880fe20b1d.png is the error I'm getting.

I am a technical man, I'm far from new to OBS, used it a lot and helped a lot of friends to set it up while it was still new, however I haven't used the past 4 years or something so, but I can't wrap my head around this and it shames me.

Any idea why, serious answer only? (Please do not guess ur way forward)
I'm lost, please, I appreciate any serious help. :)

Mvh Peter

Re-installed my graphics card driver, using the method to completely cleanse the computer of old files and tried again, tried several other methods but doesn't seem to get it to work at all.

Anyone got any tips I can try? OBS Studio is by far the one I'd like to use, everything is just better than running the old version even tho I can stream perfectly with NVENC using original OBS.

Hey mate, it could just be that you have Windows 7, it might all get fixed if you upgrade that, but I'm not sure.

Also, in your log file it says cqp=0, which is lossless, and Kepler GPU's don't support it. I'm not sure if that's just a filler number for your settings, but in my log files it shows cqp=20. I suspect it's supposed to be ignored since your preset is "hq" but there could be some sanity check while initialising NVENC which detects this and stops it. I think you can solve this by actually completely uninstalling OBS, removing all files left-over, and starting it again. Make sure you use the "old" NEVENC method in OBS, the new one isn't supposed to work at all on Windows 7. It's possible that the cqp value is saved somewhere that you can't reach any more and this is a good way to clear it.

If you have a lot of complicated scenes you want to keep, just save your scene collections to file before you wipe OBS.

I don't know for sure if this will work sorry. It's just my best guess.
