Question / Help Local recording with NVENC not working anymore

[ToraKi]

Today i tried to do some local recordings (after a couple of weeks, last time everything worked fine) and i keep getting this error: Starting the output failed. Note: if you are using the NVENC or AMD encoders, make sure your video drivers are up to date.

I did a clean install of the new Nvidia Drivers with DDU, and still keep getting this error.

This is the log from obs: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9018b558a2c7ec0037df6e6d281d66c6

Anyone can help?

From your log:

10:44:24.634: [NVENC encoder: 'recording_h264'] Failed to open NVENC codec: Invalid argument

You've provided an invalid argument to NVENC, meaning one of your settings is invalid. I'm going to take a stab and say it's a combination of your output resolution (2560x1440) and your H.264 Level (4.2), because Level 4.2 only supports resolutions up to 2048x1080. Set Level to auto, and try again.

Thank you very much! That fixed everything :) I can't remember when i switched to 4.2 or why, but that was the problem :X
