Hi everyone, I'm streaming a PS4 Pro through an Elgato HD60 S on a ROG Zephyrus in Windows 11.
As the title states, my game audio sounds perfect on my computer and in my headset, but the stream feed's game audio randomly (or maybe just when the game audio gets soft) fades to near inaudible levels and then comes back to normal (if not randomly, then perhaps when the game audio gets louder again). I've tried so many possible solutions that I've forgotten everything I've tried: changing tons of settings, uninstalling and reinstalling things, disabling other devices, updating drivers, etcetera; nothing has fixed the problem and I'm getting desperate. I'm trying to build my budding little channel, but I can't stream with audio this bad, so my channel is entirely on hiatus until I can get this resolved.
This redditor had the same problem, but the solution that worked for him hasn't worked for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/l0wc3b/audio_fades_out_when_source_is_quiet_and_cuts/
The following OBS support threads were made about the same issue and they were all ignored:
- https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/game-audio-fading-in-and-out.84475/
- https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/game-audio-fading-in-and-out.163171/
- https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/audio-fading-in-and-out.163205/
Here's my own test stream showing the problem occurring at 16 seconds and again at 37 seconds: https://youtube.com/live/15g2TGU2-VM
Here's my log file: https://obsproject.com/logs/coTHWJpNlNsiUvFa
PLEASE, someone help me and others like me get to the bottom of this horribly frustrating problem.
