Question / Help My recording says Warning - Taking too long to encode!

[Noratrium]

When i try to make a video, OBS decides to skip a frame or something and leaves a huge gap in the video. This has been a problem for some time. I have tried to fix t but the best settings for it just make the whole video useless. The quality is horrendous! Some one help, the log i have pasted beneath is the one the estimator told me to setup and its still cutting down my video. HELP!

That's an incomplete log file, but right off the bat you're trying to run 1364x768 on a Core i3. They're kind of known for being bottom-of-the-barrel performers even when just gaming... throwing real-time video encoding into the mix, 'creaks and wheezing' doesn't even begin to cover it. Unless you're using QSV, which may still have issues as it doesn't appear that you have a standalone video card, so it'll be pulling double duty.

Do post a complete logfile of a live streaming session (at least 5 minutes long) so we can take a look. Yes, need the whole thing.

Off the top, I'd recommend setting your downscale dropdown to at least 1.5, though may need more like 2.0 (or more) with that CPU; also no idea why your output resolution is 1364x768, when your base res is 1366x768. Losing just two pixels on the sides is kind of weird.
