Question / Help Not telling me my dropped frames?

Sometimes, obs mp doesn't tell my how many dropped frames I have. I know i have dropped frames because my upload in the corner goes down and all over the place. I can also see the buffering on my tablet and my viewers also see the buffering. This happens when I use zerolatency with x264 or with NVENC but not with x264 by itself. NVENC looks better than x264 because my potato cpu cant handle streaming and cpu usage maxes out most of the time.

I tested a bitrate way above my upload speed but on NVENC and zerolatency, it still says 0 dropped frames though with x264 by itself, there are a lot of dropped frames.

I need to know when I drop frames so i can change my settings. Anyone know why it doesn't show the dropped frames.
(I'm not actually sure if those are the right log files but they should be)

NVENC in OBS Studio isn't suitable for streaming, it doesn't have proper CBR support. No CBR would explain why you're seeing bitrate fluctuations but no dropped frames. If you require better NVENC support you should stick with OBS1 for now.
