Warning Old Version (31.0.3)
You are running an old version of OBS Studio (31.0.3). Please update to version 31.0.4 by going to Help -> Check for updates in OBS or by downloading the latest installer from the downloads page and running it.
Warning Windows 10 Game DVR
To ensure that OBS Studio has the hardware resources it needs for realtime streaming and recording, we recommend disabling the "Game DVR Background Recording" feature via these instructions.
Warning Unrecognised Encoder
One of the configured encoders is not recognised. This can result in failure to go live or to record. To fix this, go to Settings -> Output and change the 'Encoder' option.
Info Windows 10 22H2 (OK)
You are running Windows 10 22H2, which will be supported by Microsoft until October 2025.
Info Non-Default x264 Preset
A slower x264 preset than 'veryfast' is in use. It is recommended to leave this value on veryfast, as there are significant diminishing returns to setting it lower. It can also result in very poor gaming performance on the system if you're not using a 2 PC setup.
Info Third-Party Plugins (2)
You have the following third-party plugins installed:
  • obs-streamelements-core
  • logi_obs_plugin_x64
