Question / Help OBS Studio AMD changing overdrive settings

[kamkaskan]

Hi. I have small problem with the AMD encoder.
When I'm using it it everything works perfect. But one day I wanted to stream different game (Dota 2) and then I encountered one huge problem.
My game crashes every ~1 hour. I had the problem before and reducing my GPU speed a little in OverDrive profiles for the game worked perfectly. I cheched the OverDrive settings and there are no changes, it works fine when the stream is offline, the profiles are working etc. But when I start stream the settings change (probably to the default values). I tried not using profiles and changing the global OverDrive but it didn't help too.
Is there a way to disable OBS from changing the OverDrive settings?

Do you see the same behavior for x264 encoder?

No. It only happens on H264 Encoder (AMD Advanced Media Framework). The software x264 encoder doesn't change my OverDrive settings.

There were few threads about NVIDIA but you also may check it: 980GTX VRAM downclocking when recording - maybe this is hardware dependent thing and frequencies, timings and other stuff are important for encoder by design.

Yeah. It can be something similar. I have already switched on and off every possible setting in the master settings except sliders, so it's probably sth about drivers/hardware.
