Question / Help Failed to Start Recording - Video drivers up to date, yet not working?

[Rockbrewed]

Pic says it all, but I reinstalled the drivers, ran OBS as admin, changed settings to defaults... No dice. Literally worked just fine for almost a year, and now nope!

You're running 3 1440p displays, plus a 1440p canvas in OBS. It looks like OBS thinks your GPU is out of VRAM.

03:38:18.481: YUV mode: 601/Full

Full range is going to increase load without any apparent improvement in quality for most viewers (in fact, worse for most). 601 is also an SD color space, this should probably be 709/Partial. I don't know if that will solve your issue, though, but it should recover some memory.
