Question / Help encoding error

You need to record or stream for at least 30 seconds. Also, you should restart OBS after recording and upload the last log file for more details. It can generate more stuff in the logs after closing OBS Studio.

I think you keep uploading the last log (which probably is always nothing) instead of the current one which would have the information necessary.

ok so i did a 5 hour steam stoped the stream then started it back up for 10 sec then uploaded the last log so this should be the 5 hour stream ?

There are two issues shown in the log:
  1. Frames are dropped due to network lag (bandwidth completely used up)
  2. Frames are dropped due to system lag (CPU overloaded with work)
Problem 1 can only be fixed by lowering your bitrate to something that your internet is actually capable of permanently keeping up with while other programs also use your internet.
Problem 2 can be fixed by reducing fps to 48 or 30 or by using NVENC, which uses your GPU to encode. Be aware that using NVENC may result in drastically lower encoding quality, as this is common with hardware encoding.
