Hello everyone,
So I have this really annoying thing whenever I try to record something with OBS. When I press the key I've bound to start recording, it starts up and after 1-2 seconds, my PC just freezes.
I can't really get a bug report or anything, because as I said, my PC is frozen. I have to restart it to use it again. And this happens every single time I try to record with the program. It doesn't matter if it's game capture, monitor capture, window capture etc.
Temperatures are fine. Usually around 60-70 on the GPU and around 55-60 on the CPU cores. So they're fine.
I'd really love to get OBS up and running again, since it's what I use to record my videos with.
If anyone's experienced this or read about it and knows what to do, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT! If you have this problem, are you using Intel's Quick Sync codec? Switching to X264 fixed the problem for me. Try doing the same.
