Question / Help New OBS version

I got the new version about half an hour ago, but I'm dropping frames now. On the old version, I didn't drop a single frame.
Is there something you guys changed that could cause this? The only thing I saw was the new x264 encoding profile. I've tried both options, but nothing worked.

Should I just go back to the old version?

no log file needed.. it was my game capture screwing up again.
It only works 20% of the time now.. so terrible.

What games are you capturing? I haven't changed any of the game capture code recently

I got the old version just because it seems to run better for me (was dropping frames with the new version).
Game Capture also stopped working again

Seems like it's capturing the main menu/lobby, but you can still hear my in-game sound.

I'm getting the same thing now too when trying to stream TF2 and L4D2 on Twitch. It says "WARNING: Taking to long to encode, skipping frames" This has never happened before until the update today.

EDIT: I get this error when capturing my desktop or using the video capture device hooked to dxtory.

Okay, for those of you getting the encoder skip warning, what I'll do is turn up the frame skip threshold. This was actually doubled already on the latest test build -- if possible try it out and let me know if it's any better at all.
