Question / Help Dual Pc Streaming - Quality

[Eiinstein]

Hello!

I think my quality is not the bestest, and the color is so high, I have digital vibrance on 100% on gaming computer but it feels like the stream is seeing like 200% or something. That is my 2 problems atm.

Here is my speccs:

Gaming Computer:

i7 6700K Skylake
16 gb 2133MHz DDR4
980ti


Streaming Computer:

i7 4790K
16gb 1866MHz DDR3
Geforce 770

Capture Card: Elgato HD60s

Everything on the Elgato Software, quality wise, is on highest.

OBS Settings is:
3000 Bitrate
720/60 fps
Preset: Fast


Anyone has any suggestion? At all? I'm out of ideas.

Hi,

To be clear have you had this issue with the Avermedia capture card and and replaced it with a HD60 where you are now also experiencing the issue?

Can you post a log from obs, how to do this is here https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/please-post-a-log-with-your-issue-heres-how.23074/

please also ensure before posting that you have steamed with the issue you are experiencing.

I didnt have the Avermedia, I only have HD60s and never had an avermedia. That was BungleGrinder :)

Here is the log:

Doh, I was tired that day :-)....

Taking a look at the log you are getting

It would be worth checking the resolutions throughout your settings as some look to be incorrectly set. I expect this is creating the lag somewhere as it try to re scale it, though i'm not 100% certain as I can't see any renderlag in the log.

Well. The "Elgato device helper" is not the real capture card. I mean it's not that I use in obs. it's also unavailable.

But its not lag. It's more like the quality is not looking great. I tried setting the preset to slow and if I would guess the processor can handle it. 50% when I'm in game. I could try increase the bitrate to 3500. anything else?
