One issue I've noticed when having multiple scenes is when I switch between them, sometimes my stream will take a massive nosedive from 60fps to 10fps and the only solution to fix it is by restarting the stream.
Sometimes, even having to toggle the scaling in video options from any % back to none.
Not sure if this is because I stream at 720p @ 60fps

As everybody I do thanks so much obs.Jim as well as R1CH and GTR.

I am just wondering why anybody else is requesting for "Add Text Title" ? did you just find an alternative to some scrolling text ?

Once again, thanks for your great (OpenSource) work !

Regards,
DaRa

It might be a silly question, but how do I find out which version, 32- or 64bit, have I installed with the installer?

EDIT: My OS's W7 64bit. I asked since I can't add anything that's running in full screen to the list of sources. For example SC2 doesn't even show up on the list of available windows, usually resulting in 'Out of range' error whenever I want to change the source for a scene.

What's your operating system? As far as I know it installs according to your OS

EDIT: If you have Windows XP, its 32 bit. If you have Windows 7, I think it could be either.

As said earlier, last versions from Installer are x32.
So you have got a x64 version only if you did download via Binaries x64 version.

Basically if you ask, it means you may have the 32bits version.

I installed through the Installer, so I must be running the x32 version on my 64 bit w7. The performance is fine though. Will resetting everything to the 64 bit version improve the performance, or can i just stick with the version i have?

The installer installs the 32bit version -- the 64bit is only available via binary zip if someone wants/needs it. There's virtually no real performance difference, also some devices don't support 64bit so it caused problems for some people, so I made 32bit installed by default in the installer.

It's the first time I try streaming and I did it with OBS.... I FREAKIN LIKE IT.

Even tho my comp is pretty good, I wasn't aware that I would have 100 fps while streaming at 1080p@45fps.

Thanks a lot, I will keep you updated as soon as I make more test to show you my config etc, and I hope some people will help me do it even better !

Edit: http://fr.twitch.tv/dodh277/b/336139155 that's one of my test with 720p@60fps!

i'm having a problem with audio lag with my stream. i'm using my webcam for a mic and i'm also displaying my webcam. there seems to be a pretty long delay (aboout 2 seconds) from me snapping my figures (my test) and it showing it on the webcam. also when i start the stream there is no audio lag but as the stream goes on it gets worse. if i recall correctly, this hasn't happened before and it's just starting happening (last 3 days).


my settings are
bitrate: 1800
quality: 10
audio is ACC/128
preset: veryfast

my proccessor is the i5-3570K

I'm not entirely sure, but some webcams can occasionally be a bit out of sync due to some sort of copy delay.

However, if you get sync continually getting worse as a stream goes on unrelated to the web cam, use the "Sync Fix" setting in advanced settings. It makes it calculate time instead of using CPU timing. Just make sure to set your FPS in video settings to at somewhere around or below the FPS you get when capturing (displayed in the main window while previewing/streaming)

The FPS setting determines at what frame rate will the video be sampled and displayed on the stream, not your screen.

What?

Oh, and just to answer your question with a guess, I'd say: no.

What are you talking about? If you want to stream at 30 fps, you set it to 30 fps. If you want to stream at 29 fps, you set it to 29 fps.

If you could just write down your train of thought regarding what you are talking about right now, that would be kind of helpful, I guess.

Edit: OHHHHHHHH, I think I get it now.

>Just make sure to set your FPS in video settings to at somewhere around or below the FPS you get when capturing (displayed in the main window while previewing/streaming)

So, no, you don't have to set it to 29 fps. Just below whatever fps you have in game while capturing. Which means 30 should be pretty fine if you have 100+ in game.

Sorry, I'm drunk.

What encoding settings/bitrate did you use for the 720p stream and what's your CPU?

I'm doing Fast preset at 10 quality with 2800 bitrate and yours looks noticeably clearer than mine. Example: http://www.twitch.tv/krazytrumpeter05/b/336157646

edit: I see on your page you have an i5 3570k @4.3ghz. I'm thinking I should be able to match that sort of clarity with my i7 2600k. Maybe it's time to push my 4.8ghz overclock even higher haha

Hm, the more I look at that vid...you sure the one you linked was 720p? It just looks too clear

Another issue I noticed is that OBS doesn't detect every running window/process.
Would really like if it'd be able to detect more so there is less need to draw screen regions.

If you have processes running as admin, you will need to run OBS as an admin for it to be able to enumerate them I believe.
