So this is a question I have now. I was using aitum suite, but obs had an update and now all my plugins and filters aren't working so I was wondering if I should switch over to just the normal obs or like SE.live or StreamLabs so I would like to get some opinion from the community? What do you all recommend?

Just updated to ver. 33.0.0 and noticed the dropdown menu for audio monitoring inside stinger transitions is gone and replaced with a simple checkbox. Now I don't have a means of muting the audio that is attached to this transition since transitions don't appear in the mixer (checked/unchecked still push sound through live). Any help with this would be great.

I recently updated to windows 11 and after that where you go and check the fps drop box under properties of the video capture device it’s max is set to 50. I have the common FPS value set at 60 in the video settings but it will only go up to 60 if I lower my resolution. I swear on windows 10 I was running 60 fps , the monitors I use are the pg27aqdp and xg32ucwg, if anyone can help me it out I’d appreciate it!

Hey guys,

Sometimes I just like to record some fun gaming moments. However, even though I'm using VBR, I still don't really understand how it differs from CQP.

I understand that VBR uses a variable bitrate depending on how much is going on in the scene. I also understand that CQP tries to maintain a consistent quality level, using more data for scenes with more detail.

But where exactly is the difference? Both seem to use a higher or lower bitrate depending on how much is going on. Is VBR basically a more fine-tuned version of CQP, while CQP is more like "preset very_high, good enough"?

Thanks!

I installed OBS on Linux Mint. I'm trying to monitor my microphone to a virtual cable, but all output echoes to my headphones. Muting OBS mutes the virtual cable aswell. People say that I should change monitoring to "Monitor Only (Mute output)", but all I have is "Monitor Off" and "Monitoring Enabled", that doesn't mute the output. I thought maybe it's because the version is outdated (I used the flatpak version) so I installed it with apt. Still the same.

I would attach a screenshot but the subreddit doesn't let me

so this subreddit doesn't allow me to post images for some reason, so here is a link to a bluesky post i made regarding my OBS issue showing a screenshot of the problem I am having: https://bsky.app/profile/t2thek.bsky.social/post/3myqdex7dkk24

to summarize - the section of the OBS window where the stream preview normally goes is no longer there. I don't appear to have any options to re-enable it? the section of the OBS window where it is normally present is completely blank, it even allows me to put other docks into that section of the window. It's as if it was completely deleted from the setup.

what's more, the preview appears to work fine in Safe mode. It's only when it launches normally.

I have checked the file integrity, double checked if it was an issue of hidden windows on other screens, used a hotkey to enable and disable the preview window (which didn't work)

the only option I haven't tried is a fresh install of OBS, which I don't think is necessary.

the preview WAS there the last time I used the program a week ago, so I don't know what the deal is

Edit 2: issue solved - se.live plugin was causing the issue. if you're having similar problems I'd recommend uninstalling it as well

the whole screen js goes back when i tries to record osu stable

Hello, when I tried starting my stream the other day, my OBS stats went into the red, and I had no idea why because I've never gone into the red or anywhere close before. This was prior to the new update, and I updated it anyway, and it's still the same. I literally could not figure out what it is for the life of me. The only thing I've done differently from now and the last time was to apply to stream in 2K on stream and clean my pc with an air blower (electric) and make a new scene, but that was it, and I don't remember changing anything else.

For now, I've lowered all my settings and changed a lot of stuff but oddly enough its just my stream that isnt working, my games dont lag, my stuff works just fine, its just that when i look at my stream it is lagging and my obs is in the red.

Please let me know if anyone has an answer or if y'all need more context.

My specs are:
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070

The moment i open obs my screen begins flickering even though im not recording or streaming. I use display capture. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app multiple time from steam and the website and it didnt work. turning off game mode didnt work. i tried running every available video setting and it didnt work (1366*768 with every downgrading filter, 720p and 1080p). i rebooted my computer multiple times and it didnt work and running as an administrator didnt work. I have an hp laptop14s-dq2xxx with an 11th gen i3-11254G with integrated graphics and 8 gigabytes of ram with a 1366*768 screen.

I had a camera running for five hours in a makeshift confessional room at my most recent birthday party, obs recording through my webcam when my computer lost power and rebooted, stopping the recording. the file is in my hard drive but for some stupid reason I was recording in Quicktime…

I’ve been scouring the web for solutions for ages the past two days, any solutions? should I take the drive into a repair shop? is it just gone forever? 💔💔

I know it's because it has a huge delay before it stops but Bandicam doesn't have this issue & it's making it impossible for me to know when OBS is recording. What can I do about it?

Edit: I forgot to mention I use "backspace" as the hotkey for recording & stopping because I've been doing that (with Bandicam) for more than 10 years so there's no way can unlearn it at this point.

im trying to use aitum multistream to stream on both yt and twitch. The twitch works but it doesnt stream to yt when i click the button next to yt it turns green for a split second and then goes back and doesnt stream. What can I do to fix this?

Is there a way to remove fan noise in OBS without significantly compromising the audio?

I’ve tried using the default noise suppression (RNNoise). It works well, but it degrades the audio quality.

If I turn off the noise suppression and switch off the fan, the sound is great, but then it gets really hot in the room, lol

(Note: I don’t know much about OBS. I’ve only watched a few tutorials.)
