Hi Guys,

i recently updated to the newest OBS (0.12.0) version for mac.
my Mac is completely unusable - because it keeps stuttering the whole time OBS is open...
it never ends and its a huge issue...

can't solve it, don't know where the problem is... i got a GTX 660 ti - and on PC this card is working without any trouble... also the previous version was better working than this one....

I do not need to start streaming, the problem starts when i open OBS...

can someone help ?
thanks guys!!!

You have 3 or 4 monitor captures that all appear to have likely overlap in what display they're capturing.

Have you tried removing the excess captures and instead use "Add existing" for those displays in new scenes?

ohhh, thanks for the hint! i got 3 Screens on my Mac, but only two are currently on...

i got a Dell 4k Screen right in front of me and downscaled to 3k - because the font gets to small and can't resize them, like i would...
now i switched to the native 4k - and its better working... when i switch to 1920x1080 its not fluent but nearly...

should be the Graphics-Card the problem ? (downscaled 3K - resolution ?)
4k Screen + 2 x 1920px Screens is to much for a 660 GTX.... ??

i think i need a capture card for my 2nd-machine.... :((((((

Thank you for the really quick help Harold!!
really appreciate !
cheers
