Hi, good morning. I've had this problem for several months in my streams. It looks blurry when I move the camera erratically. I see in the statistics frame loss due to processing delay and the average time to process a frame always in red. I don't know what to do anymore, I tried several things but they didn't work.
Help!! dropped frames due to processing delay

Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...
OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic information. Without a log file, it's much harder for any support volunteers to figure out problems and your post may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Help menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...
This is the last record I took from the obs application

1. The OpenGL renderer should not be used on Windows, as it is not well optimized and can have visual artifacting. Switch back to the Direct3D renderer in Settings > Advanced.
2. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. NEVER put them in the same scene (scene 'valo').
3. Multiple Game Capture sources are usually not needed, and can sometimes interfere with each other (also scene 'valo'). You can use the same Game Capture for all your games. If you change games often, try out the hotkey mode, which lets you press a key to select your active game. If you play games in fullscreen, use 'Capture any fullscreen application' mode.
4. Audio buffering hit the maximum value. This can be an indicator of very high system load and may affect stream latency or cause individual audio sources to stop working. Keep an eye on CPU usage especially, and close background programs if needed.
Occasionally, this can be caused by incorrect device timestamps. Restart OBS to reset buffering.
Source affected (potential cause): Audio del escritorio
5. Your GPU is maxed out and OBS can't render scenes fast enough. Running a game without vertical sync or a frame rate limiter will frequently cause performance issues with OBS because your GPU will be maxed out. OBS requires a little GPU to render your scene.
Enable Vsync or set a reasonable frame rate limit that your GPU can handle without hitting 100% usage.
If that's not enough you may also need to turn down some of the video quality options in the game. If you are experiencing issues in general while using OBS, your GPU may be overloaded for the settings you are trying to use.
Please check our guide for ideas why this may be happening, and steps you can take to correct it: GPU Overload Issues.
If still having issues, post a new log.

About point one, activate the OpenGL option because when I use DirectX 11 my PC crashes, meaning the drivers fail and the screen goes black for a few seconds, then everything goes back to normal and I get an AMD error that says "an unexpected error occurred". After that it fails continuously until I can close OBS for a few seconds and then everything goes back to normal. This only happens to me with OBS, with all the games nothing happens, everything works normally.
