After trying almost every single thing possible, I have finally come to OBS forums for any sort of last resort help.

I am a streamer who multistreams on TikTok, Twitch, Kick and YouTube. For ages whenever I load into games, it would work however it would be a terrible gaming experience. From frame drops to music on my google randomly pausing because of "overload" (I'm assuming this). Whenever I stream I would have TikTok live studio open (to stream to tiktok) then OBS to stream to Twitch, Kick and YouTube. I would have several google tabs open for chat, music and more. The ONLY reason why I am running so many applications including the game is because I have a R9 5950X + 4070 12gb VRAM + 32GB RAM. I went from a 3060ti to a 4070 in hope the issue would fix with a more powerful graphics card, and guess what. Nothing changed and it got worse somehow someway. I use to be able to stream + record at the same time, now it won't even let me with an error of NVENC encoder whenever I press record while I'm streaming. Yesterday I streamed with my new 4070 and OBS told me I lost over 200,000 dropped frames. How is that even possible with a PC this strong? I hope you guys can see my frustration and I know having a single PC is to much demand on what I'm trying to do but I've tried everything and I just don't know anymore.

Your issues have issues. Mixed Refresh Rates, Scenes have multiple Window/ Display/Game Captures. Bad Internet connection on your LAN. Timestamp warnings. Rendering lag = GPU overload The list goes on & on... Start here:

I'm not 100% sure what's causing all of those timestamp warnings but it could be one of the media sources.

I think the one log that it started normally, it wasn't actually streaming at all.

How would this possible with a brand new gpu like a 4070?

Possible with any GPU, a 4070 isn't anything special. Overload is overload & it's not much better in the new log. You need to reduce the load. You also changed Multipass to fullres in your encoding settings, switch it back to qres.

Internet looks suspect at best.

I didn't look over the entire log but at one point it got to 1600 for the bit rate but it didn't drop any frames, as it should. I would leave that enabled while you troubleshoot your network issue. Try another provider (Restream, Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). If it's still happening, it's more than likely something on your end.

Jeez it's like that? I guess the only way to stream whatever you want with no limitations is having dual PC's. I really thought a game + OBS + tiktok live studio + google tabs would be perfect for this setup but I guess its way to demanding on the graphics card alone.

Multipass uses additional GPU. https://docs.nvidia.com/video-techn...-guide/index.html#multi-pass-frame-phencoding That should be off, not qres. The analyzer shows only 0.1% encoder over load and rendering lag, so you're close.

If you only need game + OBS + tiktok live studio + google tabs then get rid of your Display Captures and use Window Capture. Display Capture should only be used if you need to capture Windows stuff such as desktop and start menu.

Got it thank you so much! Also there is no option to turn off Multipass It's only "Single pass, qpass, multipass"

That's not true. Your system is more than capable of doing what you are trying to do but the execution is lacking.

Knock those (2) monitors down to 60HZ. Fix your Scenes & the timestamps. Encoding & rendering lag will be a thing of the past. That just leaves you to figure out what's wrong with your internet.

Thank you Rock for being helpful! I had a question though, do you not think that TikTok Live Studio could be the culprit? I mean it has its own OBS to stream to TikTok to (but I adjusted all settings to be 4000 bitrate and 60fps 720p)
