Question / Help NVENC Streaming disconnect only when playing RL

[thepolishdane]

Hey guys.

I have a dual pc setup, where im running RTMP server on a linux streaming PC..
Im using my 1080TI to stream at 30k bitrate to said streaming PC. ONLY when im playing Rocket League im getting random disconnects on my gaming pc, the nvenc stream is crashing for some reason. I cannot really figure out why this only happens with Rocket league.,

Now, i have not tried every single game in the world, but from those that i play, (fortnite, PUBG, Project Cars 2) i have not experienced this in other games.

I've posted my LOG file from this newest stream, the difference from that file to what i have right now is that i've cleaned up my scenes and sources that i dont use, that i saw in the log file had trouble being found and loaded.

Anywho, i dont really know where to go from here. So hope you can help.

Regards

Why not use NDI instead?

Far better what what you're trying to do.

1. The Windows 10 CU added a new Game Mode option which causes issues more often than it helps. It is recommended to disable it when using OBS. See here for how to disable: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-enable-disable-game-mode-windows-10-creators-update

2. Change the NVENC preset from BD (Blu-ray Disc) to HQ (High Quality).

3. It's interesting that in your log OBS is having a lot of trouble getting the frames from the GPU. Please run GPU-z ( https://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/SysInfo/GPU-Z/ ), and post a link to a screenshot of the first tab, and when using OBS+RL a screenshot of the 2nd tab.
