Question / Help OBS 20.1.3 Still having problems streaming

[Matt Bietry]

I just downloaded OBS Studio 64bit, been using classic for years. I tried streaming for the first time today, and it says "Starting the output failed"
All my drivers are up to date. This is my log file https://gist.github.com/0a6e6e20b5128a3eeb417c20af485ba1 anyone else having issues?

EDIT: Problem has been resolved. Thanks!

17:51:29.891: error: The minimum required Nvidia driver for nvenc is 378.66 or newer

So is there anything I can swap to for my current NVIDIA driver? Classic still seems to work, so maybe there's another setting I can try?

 

[Harold]

Either update to an nvidia driver version that is newer than 378.66 or stop using nvenc.

How exactly do I stop using NVENC? And what exactly is NVENC?

 

[Harold]

NVENC is the output encoder you're set to use in settings - output. Change it to something else or update your nvidia drivers to a version that is 378.66 or newer.

Thank you so much! This helps a lot, I'll update if I resolved my issue or not
