Question / Help dropped frames

[theprobo]

Hello i have some sort of problem
For about few days ive got about 50% dropped frames in x264 (Veryfast, Superfast)
at NVENC everything is normal 0% of dropped frames

My stream bitrate 2500 and streaming 720p@30fps // I have 10mbit upload speed tested by test.my

pc specs

i3-4130
GTX 650Ti
8gb Ram

I checked log analyzer - only shows "Dropped Frames"

Can you post your log? (Here's how)

Also, there's this thread for advice about fixing dropped frames: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/dropped-frames-disconnecting-lag-read-this-first.8870/

ok i find probably an issue
my i3-4130 cant handle x264 veryfast preset at 720p
It lags on local recording
If i lower resolution everything is normal even on medium.

So for now i must use Quicksync vs NVENC for streaming :(

which will give better quality at 2000-2500 bitrate?


PS x264 veryfast freeze completly @ 720p30fps

Quicksync will likely give you better quality for streaming.

i made some test and the problem for streaming and local recording 1080p with freeze from about 3 sec is only when im try to record/stream GuildWars 2...

 

[dodgepong]

I can't help you until you post your log.

 

[theprobo]

ok here is my log
log analyzer says nothing.

this is when im recording Heroes of The Storm

and this is got when try to record Guild Wars 2

I dont have any fps lag in game. Game run smoothly.

 

[dodgepong]

Ah, so you're not getting dropped frames, you're getting a reduced framerate.

That second log shows you trying to record at 1080p. Can you downscale and try again?

 

[theprobo]

First log i recorded HOTs and its work properly - no lags, spikes, freeze - everything is normal

Second and third Guild Wars 2
yep im trying in 1080p but video Freeze completly after 1-2 sec. Sound going on but video freezed or lag so heavy that is unwatchable.

at 720p Video freeze for every 2-3 sec and this is hardcore annoying.

Quicksync will likely give you better quality for streaming.

i can use quick sync i have intelhd4400 but at this bitrate its not look very well and i dont have any and cant find any
Custom Quick Encode Settings for improve quality.

Your HOTS recording was done at 480p, which is why I suspect it worked better.

 

[theprobo]

yep mistake

i recorded hots at 1080p and work fine too.
something is with that gw2.
