Hi,

I recently started streaming. However, I noticed some very small fps drop when I play League of Legends. It doesn't go as smooth as when I not stream. The difference is not that big buit definitely noticable. Is my i5 2500K not good enough for flawless streaming or are there certain settings I could change? Thanks in advance.

The client says it is 32 bits while I have 64 bit Windows, is that a problem you think? I tried to download it again but didn't get a bits option. Anything else I can do?

The installer will install both versions. And whereas running 32-bit OBS on a 64-bit OS isn't an issue per se, running 64-bit OBS will give slightly more performance.

You should not use monitor capture. Use game capture or window capture, with Aero enabled.

Thanks! That seems to have solved the issue.

A problem I have now however: I have a source for Window Capture and a source for League of Legends in my 1st scene. However, it seems like I can only show either my League of Legends game to my viewers or my Google Chrome (I have that application in the Window Capture). How do I make it so viewers can see everything I do? Or do I need to switch scenes after games? How does it work?

Also, what was wrong with window capture? What did it do compared to Windows Capture and Game Capture combined?

Thanks for the quick response aswell. Great project which I will likely recommend other streamers.

Streaming League of Legends involves setting up 2 scenes; one of its main window (its menu) and one of its match window. The capture of its main window can either be a Window Capture or a Monitor Capture (if you want your viewers to see everything you're doing), the match capture most effectively has to be a Game Capture.

In the Work in Progress subforum of the plugins section on these forums you will find a plugin called Simple Scene Switcher, use that to switch automatically between the 2 scenes.

Apparently I need to be able to unzip the files. Anywhere I can download such a program without virus or spam?
