you get this report:


Old OBS Version

You are using an old version of OBS Classic. Please update to the latest version to ensure you receive bug fixes and improvements. Use Help / Check For Updates or visit the OBS download page to get the latest release.

Excessive bitrate

Your bitrate is very high. For live streaming, your viewers must also be able to download at the bitrate you specified. Setting too high of a bitrate will cause your viewers to experience lag and your stream may also drop frames if the streaming service you use does not support such high bitrates.

Skipped frames detected

The video encoder is unable to encode your frames in realtime, causing skipped frames (the video output will appear frozen). This is often caused by running at too high of a resolution / FPS combination for your CPU. Try lowering your resolution and/or FPS. If you have changed the x264 preset, put it back to default (veryfast).

See https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...ing-too-long-to-encode-read-this-first.23334/ for more details on how to fix this problem.

Late frames detected

59.06% of your frames are late. This means the frames are being generated later than they were needed, causing your stream FPS to drop. Late frames are often caused by slow sources such as monitor capture, slow video capture devices or by trying to run your stream at too high of a resolution / FPS.

If you are using a webcam, try to lower the resolution of it. If you are using monitor capture, try switching to game source or window capture. If you must use monitor capture, ensure Aero is disabled.

You can also try lowering the resolution or FPS of your stream if you have an older CPU.

See https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...ing-too-long-to-encode-read-this-first.23334/ for more information on how to resolve this issue.

I didn't work for me, I switched to Advanced, and then I tried recording, it didn't save into my Videos Folder.
