I've been broadcasting via obs for the past few years with no issues, but recently I've been getting encoder overload issues. I've tried reducing my output and also preset to superfast, to no avail.
This past weekend, I switched to a Quicksync, that went terribly, so I switched back. When I changed to ABR rate control, it seemed to fix it...so I thought. That was for a live in-person broadcast.
The following day, we did a broadcast with zoom and it was worse than ever. Changing bitrate to 900, having preset at superfast, nothing seemed to work.
I've tried disabling as many background processes as possible. I suspended onedrive syn during use.
I need help figuring this issue out. I work so hard to create nice broadcasts and now this sudden issue is baffling me. I have plenty of RAM and plenty of free HDD space. I'm sure in my frustration, I'm missing something.
Please let me know what else is needed to help me.

I'm hoping the answer isn't I need a new laptop :( It worked fine for a long time. I just don't understand. I haven't installed any new apps on it.
