Question / Help Performance Problems and Strange Lag OBS MP/Windows 10

[Skip Gently]

Hey Guys,

I'm losing my mind changing and testing settings in obs/ingame to try to fix the issues I'm experiencing so I'm hoping I can get some suggestions. Now people tell me that my streams and recordings look fine but I can see the FPS drops and this strange stutter that occurs. With streaming I don't notice much of a change in game performance but I notice that stutter I was talking about and that only way I can describe is if the game drops by 2 frames obs drops by 15 (not tested but that's what it looks like) and it shows up really bad in the play back of the stream. With recording I notice a 15 to 20 FPS performance drop in game but oddly enough the recordings don't look half bad, not great but not half bad.

I built my new computer back in October and when I got everything going this is when I noticed the issue with OBS(old) which was also the first time trying windows 10. I then switched to OBS MP which fixed things a little bit but the problems described above were still there they just weren't as noticeable. I attached a log to this cause I saw you guys like to have that, if there's any problem with it let me know.

I would appreciate any help that can be give because I'm stuck with windows 10 and I hate my streams and recordings looking like crap. PS I really like OBS MP!!

Okay I'm assuming that log I posted is wrong because it's saying I have 1GB of memory when I actually have 16GB, I'll try to post another log when I get back on my main computer.

And you've got like 15 different game captures all set to "capture any fullscreen application"

That doesn't work well.

Should I put them in a different scene or just turn them off when their not being used?

you only need one that looks for any game capture. if they are specific to a game it would be best to point them directly to your game then hide it when not used or have it in a different scene. either way, I just use one change capture in a scene and switch it to the new game when I play manually or set 1 single one to auto and run my games in full screen.

Okay I made some changes and things are starting to look better https://gist.github.com/1835f351d9f44c7ff7c1 but I would like to know why it says 'Physical Memory: 1023MB Total, 1023MB Free (NOTE: 4 gigs max is normal for 32bit programs)'
I have 16GB of memory. What's the deal with that?

try the 64bit OBS instance.

Hmmm I thought I had the 64bit OBS but I'll once again check it tonight when I get home. Thanks for your help by the way :)
