Bug Report lag without losing fps

[Saphe]

Hey so i stream league of legends and ive been using the free xsplit program wich works 100% fine.

However when i use the same settings for obs i feel like its lagging in game but i don't see the fps drop dramatically.

Hey there, the log is incomplete. You are also not using the latest version. Also, I need to know what sort of source you are using in your scene.

 

[Saphe]

Ok, im not the smartest person about this subject,

I updated my version and now it is v0.452a

The source i use is ''Software capture'' is this not the right one for streaming games such as League of Legends?

And sadly i don't know what u mean about the log being incomplete? i streamed for a bit, changed some settings around then ended the stream and copied what was in the log?

Thanks already for the quick respone.

 

[Saphe]

Oh since i updated the version it stopped lagging, thanks alot.

 

[Lain]

Hm, okay. I'm willing to bet it was the aero thing. Thanks for the info

 

[Saphe]

Oh yeah this version has enabled the disable aero on startup and the other one didnt. And since i had no idea what it was i just left it unchecked ;)

You could also try to use Game Capture source in order to achieve better performance, although I don't know how it goes with LoL. You can always try it for yourself :)
