Hello,
I've tried searching some other results related to OBS and Titanfall 2, but wasn't able to come up with a solution, so I'm going to try asking in my own thread here and hope I can get some results.
So for a while, I've been able to stream Titanfall 2 on OBS Studio without any issues, but over the past few weeks or so, I am unable to stream without both the game and the stream turning into a audio-skipping nightmare of a slideshow. Both the in-game performance and stream performance take a massive hit, and it makes both gameplay and watching the stream unbearable.
I will come back to this thread to post logs (as I'm doing so from work at the moment) when I get back home later this evening, but I figure I'd try and get a head start in explaining what is happening and what I've tried. For starters, here is what I'm currently running for hardware:
Intel Core i5-6600K @ 3.5GHz
16GB DDR4 (2133MHz) RAM
1TB Mushkin SATA SSD
nVidia GeForce GTX1070
Windows 10 64-bit
Internet: 150mbps down/15mbps up, direct ethernet connection (no wireless)
OBS was able to stream TF2 fine at one point. OBS does not appear to have any issues streaming any other game I currently play (SWTOR, FFXIV, Elder Scrolls: Legends, Vindictus, Dreadnought, Diablo III, Borderlands 2) I typically stream @ 720p/30fps, with a 2500 bitrate (CBR, x.264). The issue has occurred on 3 different Twitch Servers (Chicago is my primary, but also occurred on San Francisco and Toronto). I currently have the Leatrix Latency fix installed on my computer as well.
If I am streaming Titanfall 2, the in-game audio becomes super choppy and skips, and my framerate in game is reduced to a slideshow. OBS's interface reports a steady green connection floating between 2500-3000 during this stuttering, but the FPS in OBS drops to between 5-10. If I click "Stop Streaming", once the stream stops and disconnects, the audio and gameplay in Titanfall 2 returns to normal. Recording is not running while streaming. I've tried fiddling with some of the settings and even dropping the quality down to 960x540 @ 20FPS but does not improve the gameplay or stream lag at all (OBS still reports FPS dips down between 5-10). I've also tried reducing graphics quality in game from Ultra to Low, but also did not produce any different results. I've ensured that OBS, Titanfall, Windows 10 and my nVidia graphics drivers are all completely up to date. Origin's in-game overlay is also disabled for Titanfall, and occurs in both Full Screen and Windowed mode. With OBS, the issue occurs whether I'm using Game Capture or Display Capture. Internet functionality does not suffer any impacts when this lag occurs, and will occur with browsers closed completely.
As I mentioned, I will return to this thread to generate and post some new logs for your review, but hopefully this will give some pretty good insights as to what I'm up against, and hopefully there is a solution to this issue.
