Question / Help OBS studio won't start steaming

[yuseifan]

I get the ''starting the output failed'' pop up, I could stream on OBS classic before but for some reason I can't do it on studio. I even updated my drivers and that wasn't even the issue.

Set your encoder to x264

Hi Harold! Thanks for replying so fast. I set my encoder to x264 but the error still shows up

It says "invalid path or connection URL. Please check your settings to confirm that they are valid."

What service are you trying to stream to?

What service are you trying to stream to?

Just trying to record my screen. Not trying to stream

Please, post the log-file right after you start recording.

Try to change destination folder to something simple, like "D:\Temp" or so.
