I was wondering if someone could help me with a local recording on Xbox One.

Currently trying to record GTA and im unable to get sound through OBS. (I use an elgato btw).

is there anything I can do to fix this, thanks.

It's a Global Source.
An Elgato HD 60.
No settings have been changed, since I orginally set it up through OBS.

Okay, I Analyzed your log file with the Analyzer of this Website and you should look out for:
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Multiple video cards detected

If you are having problems and are using a laptop, see this thread (https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/laptop-black-screen-when-capturing-read-here-first.5965/) for advice.

If you are using SLI or Crossfire, you may need to disable it for compatibility with OBS.

Excessive bitrate

Your bitrate is very high. For live streaming, your viewers must also be able to download at the bitrate you specified. Setting too high of a bitrate will cause your viewers to experience lag and your stream may also drop frames if the streaming service you use does not support such high bitrates.

Skipped frames detected

The video encoder is unable to encode your frames in realtime, causing skipped frames (the video output will appear frozen). This is often caused by running at too high of a resolution / FPS combination for your CPU. Try lowering your resolution and/or FPS. If you have changed the x264 preset, put it back to default (veryfast).

See https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...ing-too-long-to-encode-read-this-first.23334/ for more details on how to fix this problem.

That just about your whole Stream.
Back to your main Problem, try grapping the Elgato with "Video Capture device".
Also you should know there are ongoing problems with Elgato and OBS, read about that in this thread: (https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/elgato-game-capture-hd60.18679/)

im not streaming, so the bitrate and the frame rates no happening to me. Regards to the Video cards, nothing has appeared incorrect and the only issue is getting sounds from ingame into the local recording.

I've just realised, that in global source, I used a "Video Capture Device" When I change my Audio Input Device to Elgato, it says there's no device connected.

Oh sorry, I overread that local recording because Im in too much Topics right now.
And I'm sorry to say that, but I think your another victim of Elgato Driver not working right. I posted a thread above (last link) where it should answer your questions, but without solutions.
I cant do more, if someone gets a solution I think it will be posted in that Thread.

I hope I helped you anyway.

regards, Felix
