Question / Help Help with Avermedia Live Gamer HD

avoids

New Member
I am currently trying to stream my Xbox 1 with the Avermedia Live gamer HD.

When I start to "preview" the stream it says taking to long to encode and is just flashing red.

I have tried streaming at 1080 and 720 with similar results. I have also tried streaming at 30 frames and 60 frames. Aero is also disabled.

This is my PC setup
AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4670K CPU @ 3.40GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.4GHz
10 GB RAM

All is help appreciated.
 
When that happens it usually means your settings are too high (video/fps). Post a log and we can try to help further.
 
Thank you.

You have an i5 4670k yet you get mad duplicated frames while using a capture card.

14:19:57: Total frames encoded: 35569, total frames duplicated: 8536 (24.00%)

That's weird. What else are you doing with your computer? Something must be sucking up all the CPU. Try stopping all the other programs?
