Encoding overloaded with Threadripper 2950X

Hi there,

So for years I was running OBS with x.264 Medium (used to run Slow till I heard there were encoder flags that made it hard for live decoding), but recently I've had some issues with "Encoding overloaded". It seems completely out of nowhere and I've recently reset my windows with a fresh install, but the problem is still kind of there. I have to restart my PC before I do a stream otherwise I risk having to restart during a broadcast.

I'm running a Camlink Pro and two Avermedia Duo's. Could this be too much and causing the issue?

I'm computer literate, but not enough to hunt for driver issues etc.
 
well a log might help but maybe it wont. there many things that could be the issue.
my best recommendation asside from optimizing windows (by getting rid of anything related aka gamebar, gamedvr, etc etc) is to also fixed assignment of cores while preventing almsot anythign else to use those.

i use process lasso for this. what ive done is first i assigned all apps that are regularly active to only certain cores.
(had to undo this for certain system processes as they canot be reassigned) and this way kind of reserved the first few cores for obs.

then ive assigned obs and anything stream realted to use only those cores.

as for windows check apps that autostart and those who are in task scheduler, prevent windwos update in the time you stream etc
cant really tell you out of my head because its more of a process you go trough, one by one. them check task maanager, regualrly look at other activitys trace and shut em down
 
first of it says audio overload, so untick device timestamp on your speakers

however i think this has more todo with missing
signal_handler_connect: signal 'streamelements_update_settings' not found
18:10:52.783: signal_handler_connect: signal 'streamelements_update_settings' not found

so you have a lot of missing sources and paths, i would cleanup that first
 
So I tried fixing things up, but I feel like it's gone a bit wrong as now I can't even stream on Fast without 'encoder overloaded'

A lot of memory leaks at the bottom. No idea what's causing it


edit: I uninstalled SE.Live (stream elements) and its completely fixed. Recording at medium preset x.264 with 6.5% CPU usage.
