Question / Help Starting the output failed (suddenly)

T J · Feb 18, 2018

So i am getting this message "starting the output has failed" Make sure your drivers are up to date or something like that. My drivers are up to date. This has never happened before and i havent changed anything. Can anyone help? ill post the log and i have an AMD graphics card HD 7800. It has always worked with this card. And I have looked at my threads about this but all those people have nvidia cards. I have also tried re installing OBS studio, and the older regular OBS works.

T J · Feb 18, 2018

Now reading this log i see a couple errors, one specifically at the bottom.
01:43:13.727: [AMF] [H264]<Id: 5> <Plugin::AMD::EncoderH264::SetTargetBitrate> Failed to set to 4294966296, error AMF_OUT_OF_RANGE (code 5)

I dont know what these erros mean. and the target bit rate certainly is not "4294966296".. But im sure i just dont know what it means.

Try updating the AMF plugin: https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...ramework-encoder-plugin-for-obs-studio.52305/
And also make sure you have the latest drivers for your AMD GPU (18.x)
