I can't seem to get the pause button.

[Cinder Moon]

I've read up on it and I have everything I'm supposed to. The hotkeys are in place but don't work, In the output the Recording quality is too High Quality. Medium File Size and the Encoder is set to Hardware, not x264. So I'm at a loss. I don't know what to do, does anyone have any ideas?

You don't see the pause button or hotkey not working?

Both, I don't see the pause button and I've tried the hot keys and they don't work.

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...

After doing an update this weekend, the pause button has disappeared. Help! I need that button.

There are two things that pause is incompatible with:
Recording quality/encoder set to "same as stream"
Recording output mode set to "custom ffmpeg output"

This thread helped me restore the pause button! Thanks.
