Bug Report Dropped Frames/Low FPS/Connection Crash

Hello,

I really like this programm but I have some issues and I guess its a problem of my settings.
I try to stream League of Legends on own3d.tv.
If I activate the stream my ingame FPS are about 260 but OBS only transfer 20 FPS.
Sometimes the connection crashes randomly (everytime under 1 hour streaming time in a row) and sometimes are dropping frames randomly.
Today League of Legends got a new patch and now OBS cannot find the game everytime (via game capture).
What am I doing wrong?

Internet connection:
Down: 51,4 Mbit/s
Up: 10,0 Mbit/s

Sorry for the bad englisch :D

Fixes from those daily builds are now officially released in 0.452a as well. Not sure if this particular issue (depending on what it is) is covered though

try changing your output fps to 30fps. you're really almost pushing out 1080p at 60fps while trying to play a PC game. That'd be tough on any PC X_X. if your game doesn't show up on game capture then try putting it either in a window or windowed (no border). Capturing fullscreen games are still tough to do nowadays with all of the graphical glitches. :(

you only have 0.13% dropped frames total. Barely any frames seem to have dropped. However, your scene it taking way too long to render. Are you capturing your monitor without aero disabled? You have to make sure aero is disabled before using monitor capture (and restart the app if you do disable it). Having aero on can cause issues.

If you're on windows 8, unfortunately it can't be disabled, I have to write a new windows 8 specific version of monitor capture.

No I didn't. This fixed the problem! Thank You - Good Job!
So reasonable dropped frames, low FPS fixed with disabling Aero and with the newest version no connection crashes anymore!

Since OBS can't find League of Legends as a game, I run it on window mode. The "Game Capture" feature is in the experimental phase so I hope sooner or later it will be fixed.

- Thanks again

For League of Legends you have to set up two scenes.

One with either Window Capture or Monitor Capture for the PVPClient as it uses Adobe AIR and not DirectX to render.
One with Game Capture (for best performance, though you can also do window mode and run LoL in a window). You'll need to load up a game against bots or something and then do a Preview Stream so that OBS will pick up the game.

Then you can just set a hotkey to each scene and swap back and forth between each scene manually. This is how I did it, anyway.

edit: I just noticed you were using 64bit OBS. You need to use 32bit OBS for 32bit games if you decide to try Game Capture like I suggested (just about everything but Minecraft is 64bit).

edit2: I just tried myself and Game Capture still works, even after the new LoL patch

Thanks for your advice, KrazyTrumpeter05.

Well I know how to set up a scene but I didn't know, that OBS has to be the same Bit structure. I will try it tomorrow!
