Question / Help Recording error: An encoder error occurred while recording.

I get the following error: Recording error: An encoder error occurred while recording.

This happens when I start a recording and then start streaming. This is a new issue for me. Any idea what may be going on?

If I instead start the stream then hit Start Recording I get the following error: Encoding error: An encoder error occurred while streaming.

Your GPU ran out of memory. The AMD encoder is not particularly good in any case.
 
Damm even I am having a similar kind of issue, I have searched all over the internet and even have posted on number of threads on different forum, no solution seems to work. I am really frustrated, can anyone of you here help me resolve this issue, I am very much tired now.
 
Please make your own threads with your session logs.

If you aren't getting errors relating to nvidia driver versions, you do not have the same issue as the original poster.
 
I recently got an error message ("An encoder error has occured while recording") which happend when I recently updated OBS. Before updating, I never run into this issue (I'm recording on a laptop with an Intel CPU and GPU, if anyone wants to know)
