Rendering/Encoding lag that I can't figure out.

[A_Liav]

So as I'm sitting here typing this, I have OBS in the background NOT streaming or recording. Despite that, I am getting "Frames missed due to rendering lag", albeit a very small amount.

Over the course of a ~6 hour stream, I had roughly 11/12 each of "Frames missed due to rendering lag" and "Skipped frames due to encoding lag". Obviously this reads 0.0%, as it is a very small amount, but I just don't understand why it's happening at all. Most importantly, I don't understand why I'm missing one frame per minute while not even streaming or recording.

This is the log file for the ~6 hour stream, and an image of my current OBS stats window just sitting there doing nothing. Thanks for your time.

I have the same issue, you even have better specs than mine, so maybe it's because we have 2 monitors with different hz.

Many times this is caused by a slow browser source, like StreamElements, that can't provide the frame data to the GPU in time to render the completed frame. This is especially true if you have the OBS.Live plugin installed, which replaces the Browser Source module with a modified (worse performing) one to enable greater compatibility with... let's call them 'time-saving' webpage coding methods.
OBS Studio already includes everything OBS.Live 'adds', and the convenience panels can be added to base Studio as Custom Docks. It really isn't needed, and is inadvisable to use it.

Try creating a new Scene Collection up at the top, don't add any sources, see if it still does the thing. If so, uninstall OBS.Live and repeat. If it STILL does with just clean base OBS Studio, we can try doing a test recording, making sure the issue happens, ending, exiting OBS so the timing tree breakdown is written out to the end of the logfile, and diagnose that way to see where the 'pinch' is happening.
