For a start I'd really like to thank everyone who's contributed to this project. It is truly an amazing program, and I never expected a good alternative for Xsplit to be out this quickly.
That being said, I'm having a problem with the program. My PC is pretty powerful so I can play & stream using Game Capture at 60+ FPS in just about any game just fine, however, Monitor Capture is a lot more convenient for me since I usually drag windows around fairly often and having to make add a new source every time I do so isn't really convenient.
Whenever I use Monitor Capture and either start stream or preview stream though, my in-game FPS drops to 20-30, in any game. Sometimes it'll be a stable 30, other times it'll fluctuate constantly. It doesn't matter what graphics settings each game is on, it'll still happen.
Now before you ask, yes, I'm on Windows 7. I've tried with Aero on/off, it doesn't matter. The problem also happens with Window Capture with Aero on/off. The problem doesn't happen on Windows 8, but Windows 8 blows so I'd rather not have to switch to it every time I want to stream.
My specs are as follows:
i7 920 OC @ 3.6GHz
AMD HD7970 OC
6GB RAM
2x monitors
And here's my log:
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
