@GumBang Ok, let's go further back then: get the archive manager to unpack the file from http://7-zip.org/ Winrar should also be capable. Also get MSVC++2013 from OP. Then just unpack the 7z file and run OBS.exe and hope it doesn't crash right out of the gate ;-)
In addition to what jackun said, unzip the files to a folder on your desktop or somewhere where you can put multiple folder and keep track as these are beta builds, keey them organized until you find a version that works best. well this is what I do to compare and see if something works better on one build.
Run the obs.exe from that folder and when you do, you'll see the VCE tab and VCE enabled under the encoding tab. the newest one will best run in AMF to which you will check this option.
Under VCE options tab, set the quality level to one of the three different levels, speed, balanced or quality for anything under 720p@60fps or 1080@30fps. anything over those two and you'll need to use balance or speed.
set your IDR to 2x your FPS or 0 and your GOP to same or double your FPS.

Ah, while going over older post, I think by VBR you actually meant Const. QP/CRF? "Quality Balance" afaik sets fixed QPs/CFR (atleast I've been setting in OVE/AMF). VBR still uses bitrate unlike QP mode.

It worked now I can select AMD VCE bud do i have to change anything to my other settings?
I see. so no need for setting the quality balance under the encoder tab when using VBR?

Depends on game, your hardware etc. Default settings should be enough, hopefully. Read older posts otherwise. Also read guides as most apply to this fork too: https://obsproject.com/forum/list/guides.18/
Ok thanks for all the help everyone

Hey guys, i record with the amd vce codec and i have lags in Sony vegas if i play the clip( only in editing). and this isn't so nice because i always must render the clip if i would like to see if the clip is nice or not.
Maybe some guys have a idea why i have this lags? my pc is more then good:D

Well the 2015-02-08 build wont work for me with AMF at all. No matter what settings i use. (i use it for local recording)
If i press the record button, OBS will create the video file (0 bytes) but wont responding directly after i press the record button.
The 2014-11-23 build works for me. I get some strange bugs with it but it CAN work ^^
Every build after that wont record or freezes with AMF no matter what settings i use.
Max bitrate is mostly 25k depends on the game i play and Buffersize 0.
I would love to give you a crashlog but i dont get one. Only thing i get is this one
Its with the 2015-02-08 build

buffer size 0 used to be broken in VCE since that is used to get potentially unlimited bitrate.

with the dlls of the older build 2014-11-23 its working :D
well, ok i'll change it then
Sorry, haven't read here the last few days. I just wanted to update that I have a fix for it now. It's probably obvious, but I never tried it before. After reading this I did some experiments. It turns out that if I set my Base Resolution to 2670x1080 and get my downscaling to 1712x720 (257:108 Aspect Ratio) the green line on the right end of the screen goes away. Exactly why I don't know. But I noticed that if I tried to get 1704 instead of 1706 downscaled, the line got thicker. So simple method of elimination, I made the resolution larger. A couple of tries later, and I got the bar to go away All that remained then was to make sure all sources were scaled to fit screen again, so there's no black frames.
Here:
Now, exactly why it does this you most definitely know better than I. Just, if anyone else has the same issue, this could probably be a fix. If you want to to test some files/whatever to see if there's some way of fixing this nativly in your build, I'd be more than happy to test for you.

AMF defaults to 20Mbits for me atleast.
