Question / Help Lagging a lot around 20 minutes in

[Lethalstate]

When i stream while playing league of legends i get around 70-100 FPS while streaming but between 20 minutes and 25 minutes into streaming my game lags a lot and drops down to about 10-15 FPS for about a minute then it goes away and comes back about five minutes later. Is anyone else having this problem? or Does anyone know how to fix it?

Please post a log file from %appdata%\OBS\logs from a live streaming session where this occurs.
May also be a good idea to run a 6MB test at http://testmy.net/upload and post the results as well.

One of the more common performance problems for LoL streamers is people using the Monitor Capture function... it's a last-resort option. For LoL, you should be using two scenes; one set up with Window Capture for the launcher, and one with Game Capture for the in-game executable. There's an auto-scene-switcher plugin here on the forums that watches for the in-game executable to start up and auto-swaps over automatically.

I posted both of them up there now.

It says you have three game captures and two monitor captures going at one time (unless you were deleting/creating new ones there)

no there are in the scenes but the boxes are not checked and plus i switched back in fourth for a few minutes testing something out. but the only scenes i was using were text for music, text of my name, and league of legends

Try using preview and disabling one or more of the sources to see if any of them are causing any problems. It unfortunately is very difficult to determine from the log file what's going on if anything. It could be something else on the system causing it. Unfortunately I just don't know.
