    Is there any way to run the recording compression algorithm on a pre-created file?

    I've been fiddling with a bunch of advanced settings in OBS to fix some audio settings for my use case, and in setting these, I've had to use the Advanced output mode. In the recording section, I actually just set the quality to lossless thinking that the change wouldn't be that bad, but it's...

It definitely does not look 60 fps, it looks more like 20 lol. Any idea on whats going on? Here goes my most recent log. I am so...

    Auslastung GPU Encodierung Streaming

    Hi OBS Forum, ich wollte mal fragen ob meine Auslastung zu hoch ist? Encodierung erfolgt wie im Titel steht über Grafikkarte. Ich bin bei ca. 25 bis 40 % und das ohne ein Spiel zu spielen. Mir ist das heute mal wieder richtig aufgefallen und ich bin mir nicht sicher ob das jetzt durch das neue...

    Audio Processing Issues Specifically With Davinci Resolve

    I have been having some issues processing OBS recordings with Davinci Resolve specifically. When I upload media to Davinci Resolve the audio waveforms don't show until about 20 seconds into the clip and the audio is kind of messed up. I have Remuxed it to mp4 and mov files but nothing seems to...

    Is there an add-on that will automatically increase speed of rendered video output?

    I'm guessing this is a super unique request, and I'd be shocked if it exists but... I often record screen share video explanations for my clients and send to them by email (I'm an insurance professional). However, for the sake of time I'd like a plugin that will automatically take what I'm...

Not a lot, but still noticeable whilst watching the footage. I made a log and I'll link it down below. Is there...

    Encoding Error: what does it mean?

    Hi everyone. Recently started getting this encoding error with OBS Studio randomly after the most recent GeForce update. It doesn’t happen immediately while streaming but often 3-4 hours into a twitch stream with no previous issues or warnings that it’s going to happen. It cuts my entire stream...

    NVENC actually uses a lot of GPU resources and watts

    The premise of NVENC is to handle video encoding without impacting game performance much. There's a lot of discussion on the internet about the computer resources used by NVENC in various forums, blogs, Youtube videos, etc and the general consensus seems to be that it does use a bit of CPU and...

    Plugin: Getting Encoded Frame Information

    Hello! We are currently working on a source plugin. After it has output video through obs_source_output_video, we need to grab information about the frame later, after it has been encoded, right when it is sent to let say a streaming service. Is there a way, through the existing public API, to...

    Encoder randomly getting overloaded while recording when it usually runs fine

    I've been using OBS to record my videos for 18 months, and I've had the same settings the whole time. I've been able to record almost any game without any sort of lag, up until 12.18.2021. I didn't change any settings, yet I'm now getting the "Encoding overloaded" warning message every time I...

    AMD GPU Hardware Encoder 0.1.0

    OBS ships with an existing AMD GPU encoder which is sadly outdated and unmaintained. This plugin is a rewrite of the original fixing several bugs in the process. As an additional feature it supports texture based encoding which makes GPU encoding even less CPU intensive. In it's current state...

    Hi guys! I hope you don't mind this is not a technical issue but I would really appreciate your feedback though :) I plan on upgrading my Matebook D14 to a better laptop so that I can record all my sources (five so far) and also multistream at the same time at 720p or even 1080p as I have 100mb...

    Blurry stream with high bitrate and RTX 3070

    Hey guys, I have had this issue for a while now and it keeps on bugging me. My streams always have some sort of blurry/grainy look to it. I used to think that this is a hardware issue but since I recently picked up the new RTX 3070 I think the issue is somewhere in my settings. I should have a...
