Question / Help Massive skipping/frozen game capture

[Alex English]

Hi there,

I'm trying to stream DOOM (2016) on Twitch through OBS.

As a test, I tried recording a little footage before streaming. When I viewed the recordings, I found the visuals of the game capture to be completely frozen. The audio from both my mic and the game were totally fine, as well as the video from my webcam. The video sometimes will jump forwards several hundred frames, or stay completely still indefinitely while the audio goes on normally. What the hell causes this? Is my GPU unable to handle running the game visuals and capturing the video? Let me know what's up. Here are my computer's specs.

Note that this is happening without even trying to stream. It is not a problem with my internet.

Processor
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz

Video Card
Intel(R) HD Graphics 630

Video Card #2
AMD Radeon(TM) RX 560

RAM
8.0 GB

Operating System
Microsoft Windows 10 (build 15063), 64-bit

says that Game Cap is having problems hooking the executable for some reason. Are you running ANY kind of overlay software, or graphics mods?

In the meantime, run it Fullscreen Windowed and use a Window Capture instead.
Also, make sure it's actually running on your Radeon GPU, and not the Intel iGPU for some reason. (Like if one of your monitors is plugged into the motherboard, instead of your graphics card. It's happened more than once that someone wasn't even *using* their GPU, and didn't know it. So I have to specify.)

 

[Alex English]

I'm using an overlay from player.me. Not running any software other than OBS and DOOM. No graphics mods either.

Pardon me for asking, but how exactly do I run the game in fullscreen windowed? I know that pressing alt-enter will make it into a window. Do I then just stretch it to full screen using the cursor?

 

[Alex English]

Okay, I just tried running it in windowed mode, and no dice, I just got a black screen.

Also double checked that the game is running off my Radeon GPU.

 

[Alex English]

Tried a bunch of different things like trying Display Capture in borderless windowed mode, fullscreen mode, etc, all I ever get is a black screen or a frozen image. Help? Anybody?

Turn off windows 10 game DVR. (logs shows it as being on)

Remove all the extra game capture sources. You have way too many.
