Hello there. I have been using OBS for awhile now just fine. However, today I set up my second monitor and all of the sudden I'm getting this error message when trying to record OR stream:

"Starting the output failed. Please check log for details.

Note: If you are using NVENC or AMD encoders, make sure your video drivers are up to date."

My logs are attached.

My pc specs are:

Intel core i7 4790k
Radeon R9 280 OC edition
16G ram

Please help

Code:
17:23:26.622: Encoder ID 'amd_amf_h264' not found

It is not, at least according to the log file. It is very likely that you encountered the "can't change encoder" issue that has been reported a while back. Update your AMD driver or create a new profile (NEW, not a copy :P).
