Question / Help Obs/Obs Studio guidance needed. Recording more intense video games render more than half of the vid

[asz25]

I used both Obs and Obs Studio. The recording works fine in extremely light games like "Osu!", although that isn't the case when I record more than 30 minutes of games like Overwatch or Rocket League. The fps throughout the videos are extremely bad, and barely watchable. After about one-third of the video, the same frame shows for long periods of time. The audio throughout the whole ordeal, is perfect.

I would really appreciate some help. I also use a Dell Xps 15; laptop. The specs are in the log files, I think.

I've included my log files and here are my settings; http://imgur.com/BME6TFD

1. 21:15:23.285: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 29481 (54.7%)
2. 21:15:23.285: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 11535 (21.4%)

Basically your CPU is not keeping up with the amount of work you've asked it to do, lower your fps and/or resolution or increase your cpu preset to superfast or ultrafast

Also check that OBS is running on your Nvidia GPU and not on your Intel built in GPU, search in the forums for how to make sure that's the case.

Lastly only have one game capture per scene, if you need to set up multiple different game captures for a reason use Scene Collections.

Try all those and let me know if you are still having problems.
