Question / Help Nvidia Nvenc Lossless?

Hi,
I want to use lossless as my preset with Nvenc but every time I pick it and start streaming my stream is black with only sound coming through. In OBS the bit rate shows red. The other presets work that dont have lossless in the name. I have a GTX 980 so I should be able to select that preset, right?

I have the same problem. I was never able to stream or even record with lossless settings on NVenc.

I do, however, have more than acceptable results when using the High Quality Low Latency 2 pass setting. There's really no reason why you'd want to stream with Lossless, though. Even the setting I mentioned would be WAY too much for most stream viewers to handle without buffering like crazy when watching.

Lossless, in my mind, is most suitable for recording and uploading to something like YouTube.
 
Thanks for the reply. Ive been using high quality low latency and its been the best one for me. But I want to try lossless and see hows the quality.

Is this a bug or issue with lossless or its only working for local recording?

Thanks.
