There is one thing about the resolution canvas I've seen somewhere few years ago and it helped me BIG TIME. See, I didn't had a beast of a PC as I do now and I didn't know what to do - so the fella I saw said that if you set your canvas the same as your resolution, your PC won't have to do double work - since apparently it reduces the quality and then sends it out instead of just sending it out. By just changing that (it took me like 30min to fit everything back in) I got my stream on mid-high up and running. I still do that but I am on max quality and my GPU/CPU doesn't even care, temp is same as if I am not streaming. Maybe this helps someone is why I am putting it out there.

Great tip Alex! Thank you for putting it here. Hope it helps someone. There are various reasons why someone may want to "downscale" from a higher resolution and there are even several downscaling options to choose from (they each have a different stress on the computer), but like you said, if someone is having a difficult time and/or is just starting out they really benefit from just setting the base and output resolution to be the same. Usually, I recommend people use the standard 1920x1080p unless they know what they are doing. Great helpful comment Alex. Thank you!

Thanks for giving the video a watch! I mentioned some things in the video that you would need to expirement with to find the right settings for your exact situation. You can try using a medium profile and no passes for instance and see how things improve when it comes to in game framerate. You could also turn off Psycho Visual tuning and look ahead and see if that helps decrease the gpu load. Do you have both 240 hz monitors set to 240 at all times? You could go into display properties and set the second monitor lower if not using it to game and your gpu would thank you. For every monitor you add, it takes a toll on the gpu which will take a toll on the game. Something to consider. I have a 3080ti as well and unfortunetly there are times when gaming and streaming on the same rig I just HAVE to lower my in game quality settings to like medium or something. Hope some of these suggestions help. Sounds like you have a pretty awesome setup overall!

The game stutter can’t be seen on stream either. I actually had an issue before with using the 2 monitors, I had a 240 hz and a 165 hz monitor. That was actually causing really bad stutter because of the two different hz. Both are set to 240 correctly. I do have look ahead already turned off, do you think it could be the psycho visual tuning that may be causing it? I noticed for this game my gpu is actually bottlenecking.

@creatorcology

Жыл бұрын

Specific setup questions are difficult because I am not there to see everything and troubleshoot. So here are some shot in the dark thoughts... OBS shouldnt be the cause of disconnects. It is merely the platform that packages all your stuff and sends it to the internet. Most of the time disconnecting refers to internet related issues. Do you have a hard line connection? Ethernet to the tower? Is it directly to the router? Or is it attached to a wireless extender or something? Do you have strict nat type settings on your router or modem? Do you need a newer modem or router? Is your internet reliable? Is your internet above 30mbps up and down? Is your ping decent? If using wifi then is your wifi module broken or plugged in correctly? Is your lan firmware updated to the newest settings (check your motherboard companies support website for downloads)? Are you streaming to twitch? Did they have a bad service day with lots of reported disconnects? (Maybe try streaming on a different day or even to YT). OBS has an auto-reconnect option that you should make sure is enabled to help not lose the stream completely. Thats all I have right now given the limited information. Hope you find a fix soon.

Try 4500 bitrate using the normal nvenc encoder (not the ffmpeg one). BUT go to the chapter marker in the video where I setup the nvenc settings because I mention twitch bitrates and also show what other settings to use besides the bitrate. Since the 2060 is not that strong you may also need to go to low or medium quality in game settings also depending on what you play.

Жыл бұрын

Hello Danny, Missing a frame everyone now and then, especially at that low of a rate is pretty normal. When I am doing a gameplay stream I can miss a frame just from alt+tabbing to a different screen. I would watch back your recording and see if you can even spot the difference. If you CAN spot the difference then lowering your bitrate a little bit (for recordings) can help. If you are streaming then make sure you have a hardline connection and you don't have too high of visual quality if gaming. If not gaming, then before you record your screen or whatever give you computer a reboot or completely close all browsers and re-open. Sometimes browsers drain Memory usage when there is a lot of tabs and they have been open for a while. You could also try experimenting with some of the OBS encoding presets like dropping down to a "medium". All this stuff is super contextual and since I don't have the full story of your rig, what you are doing, or your settings, the above is general tips. I hope they help a little bit. Though, if you are not seeing any drops when watching back the recording then I wouldn't worry about it.

Did you lower the multipass option to a less intensive one? Etc... there is so much it could be. Would love to help but like I said repeatedly... YOU have to expirement using the guidelines I gave as a starting point. Did you start with the settings in the video then adjusted stuff? Also encoding lag can happen naturally when you switch to a browser, application, and do other stuff off obs. Make sure your recordings are solid or not before you take too much stock in the numbers on the stats screen. Hope I can help.
