Question / Help Stream Freezes whenever I enter a TF2 Server

[CaminonTehSpook]

The stream works just fine until I enter a game in which the capture freezes but the game runs fine. I tried simply running it in a preview and that doesn't work either. I tried streaming windowed, fullscreen windowed, but to no avail. I'm running Windows 10, but I think it might have something to do with the source engine.

Unless you're running TF2 in a window, window capture isn't going to work on it. Use a game capture source instead. Your system also isn't going to handle 1080p60 encoding either. Lower your OBS FPS to 30 and downscale to something like 360p or 480p.

@Sapiens I figured lowering my settings would work, but I did not notice that I needed "Game Capture." Thanks for your help!
