Hi all, hopefully you can help. I'm having difficulty when using my HD60 capture card to stream any console games. If I enable buffering, the output is smooth for a fews seconds, then buffers so it's constantly skipping. If I disable buffering then there is no skipping, but the audio and video of the capture runs really choppy. I've posted my OBS log for reference. Don't know if I should adjust my settings or not and what to. Any help would be great. Thank you

No output session in log.

Open OBS. Start an output session (streaming or recording). Observe your issue. Stop the output session. Upload the Current log without quitting OBS.
Include a log file if you have a problem: here's how
To upload a log file, go to the Help menu -> Log Files -> Upload current/last log file. The current log file is for the currently active running session. The last log file is for the last time you ran the program. We recommend always including it just in case.

You can try turning off psycho visual tuning but I don't see any GPU overload here. If there's a buffering issue I think it's directly with the capture device. Check that you've got the latest drivers and that the settings you've chosen for it are supported. Try moving the device to another USB controller/port.
