The Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ("HAGS") feature added with Windows 10 is currently known to cause performance and capture issues with OBS, games and overlay tools. It's an experimental feature and we recommend disabling it via
this screen or
these instructions.
You are running an old version of OBS Studio (29.1.3). Please update to version 30.2.3 by going to Help -> Check for updates in OBS or by downloading the latest installer from the
downloads page and running it.
You are running Windows 11 22H2, which has not been supported by Microsoft since October 2024. We recommend updating to the latest Windows release to ensure continued security, functionality, and compatibility.
At least one of your audio devices has a sample rate that doesn't match the rest. This can result in audio drift over time or sound distortion. Check your audio devices in Windows settings (both Playback and Recording) and ensure the Default Format (under Advanced) is consistent. 48000 Hz is recommended.
OBS Sample Rate: 44100 Hz
Headphones (WH-1000XM4): 48000 Hz
Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene.
OBS is not running as Administrator. This can lead to OBS not being able to Game Capture certain games. If you are not running into issues, you can ignore this.
