The video jerks in any game. Help!!!
I've tried everything. Can you help? The video lags periodically and I can't fix it. I even tried to change the refresh rate of the monitor from 60 to 59. At 59 monitors and 59fps, OBS Studio is smooth on recording, but constant jerks on YouTube streaming (

By checking your own Logfile you might have found some Error coming up.

Another thing might be. Why are you up-scaling your output video?
Did you get while recording, not at the beginning, some lost frames or even a warning of overloading your encoder?
Is your Internet connection all fine?

No personnel losses. The load on the video card does not exceed 60-70%. Everything is smooth in the game. 2K YouTube scaling for better quality. Scaling does not affect lags, checked many times. Lags at any bitrate and at any resolution (

Err... oky.
Check your I-net connection. Check your Streaming settings in YT. Check if this effect also occurs in other games. Check your Scenes. Check your Settings. Check if you have the game mode in windows active. That´s right now than alI I could say with the given information from the far.

In any games this problem (. I can leave a link or links with the time code of streams. The problem is very noticeable at the moments of turning or turning the camera in the game. My streamer friend has the same problem (

Off course there are people who don´t see the problem, just wait or explain it, use time stamps and so on. At first your video seems to be all fine. But when you look closer to it there are some heaps you can see. As what I can see is that those heaps are periodly on your video. it might be still a problem with your encoder settings or and even with your streaming settings.

Start OBS as an Admin and also have the Game Mode in windows active.

Besides of that Lower the Outputting Framerate from 60 down to 30 fps in obs NOT in your Systemsettings in NVIDIA or AMD and do another test run. If those heaps are gone it might be due to periodly overcoming some system heaps. If those heaps are still there than the Load in OBS is still to high for your system. Try using instead of "GameCapture" "WindowCapture" if this doesn´t work. Try not to stream AND record at the same time. If this is still needed to rec and stream, try to lower your output setting like your resolution and use the same resolution like your base res. Upscaleing also needs resources so try not to do it and stick with 1080p or what ever resolution you might end with.

Game mode turned on. 1080 and 720 tried. At 30 fps it is not clear, there is no smoothness at all on a 60 fps monitor. I test it in recording and on stream. Lags are random in the same places (IE 5 records 1 can show a smooth result. I suppose poor synchronization of OBS Studio game capture with the video card.
In administrator mode and changing the priority does not give a positive result (
Screen capture doesn't work for me. I have 1 monitor for streaming.

Anything is possible but I doubt it's the monitor. Just need to continue troubleshooting.

A new log with recording & streaming sessions would be helpful.

Change a few settings before you start. Try recording to a different hard drive, an SSD if possible. Uncheck Psycho Visual Tuning & for the hell of it, set your Keyframe Interval to 2 seconds. If there is no improvement, create a new Scene with just your game capture as a source & give that a try.

Heading out to do some yard work, I'll check back later.

1. Made an appointment for ssd
2. Set up 1920x1080 like the monitor
3. Administrator mode
4.b frame 2, Uncheck Psycho Visual Tuning
5. New scene and capture only games
6. Game mode enabled and high priority
7. CPU load 15%, GPU 68%, GPU encoding 17%
8. Rendering time 0.2 ms
Where is 0.2ms better? There are no frame drops. But the video lags (
I attach everything to the message.

Still stuttering but there appears to be some improvement.

So you don't have an SSD installed in the PC & are running your OS & apps on a mechanical drive?

Render time is good, no issues there.

Test CBR again but lower the bit-rate to 10,000kb/s.

Then test CQP with CQ set at 18. You really should be using this rate control for local recordings anyway. You'll save disc space & there will be no quality loss.

While you're in the OBS settings, hit the Audio Tab & change the Sample Rate to 48k so all your sample rates match.

The system is on ssd m2, and wrote down to another ssd 500 mb sec writing and reading. Bitrate and 2000 does not save from jerks (you understand, I recorded in other programs with 200000 kb sec and without any jerks or problems. The problem is with the capture in OBS Studio. The sampling rate of 41000 is enough for me and I don't hear any problems. without a sound. As twitching, twitching (

A few more things to try.

If you have GPU-Z installed, check to see if your GPU is running on the correct Bus Interface, should be PCI-E x 16

Check to see if there is a BIOS update for your mobo.

Try using the x264 encoder.
