2 PC OBS Studio x264 - Stream Quality

Hello everyone, i watched probably most of the Adam's videos (OBS tutorials espacially) and i've been trying to get the stream as crisp as possible (always comparing video quality/pixelisation to one of the big streamers), but as it seems - im getting something wrong. Or i'm not and its just how it is. 🙂 As i'm streaming mostly to twitch (really for a bunch of my friends) and i have two decent PC's i think i can get better video than i'm getting right now. So, i'll try to explain my setup and give as many screenshots as i can and hopefully i can learn something new and set it up better. First PC (Gaming PC) is: CPU: Ryzen 9800X3D ...

6900 XT vs 2080-Ti for streaming

I have a 2080-Ti but the card is kind of doing bad with performance at 1080P, i am getting stutters and much more paired with my 9900K. So i have the option to upgrade to 6900 XT for just 100$ and selling my GPU. I am just worried if the 6900 XT will be a good one for streaming to twitch at 1080P 60 FPS or not?

OBS Studio | Aitum Multistream Bitrate

So I am following Epos's guide on how to setup OBS Studio with Aitum Multistream, and I did the step about running a stream to Twitch with Enhanced Broadcast on before doing mutistreaming so it will give me the options, but the option for 1440p's bitrate seems low. Does that mean I should do the setting sperately or should I have YouTube be my main and then go to Twitch and other platforms after?

Micro HDMI cable that fits in the Sony a5100

I am currently having the BIGGEST issue with my a5100 where mid stream the camera will just freeze. What I end up having to do is power cycling the camera, removing the dummy battery, and replugging in the elgato cam link. My feeling is more and more something like none of the cables that I have will actually go all the way into the micro HDMI port AT ALL. There is always some extra room that's there that will hang out. - I have tried to push it in with force and that REALLY worried me so I didn't want to do it a lot....

Switching from Multiple Output plugin to Aitum Multistream plugin help

Hi guys I've been using Sorayuki's Multiple Output plugin for a while now and it usually works just fine with youtube set as the main stream and twitch as the secondary going through the plugin. However i would like to test Aitum Multistream with my settings but im having a bit of trouble setting it up mostly in regards to resolutions The safe option would be to do it as i do it now. Have youtube be the main stream and then use twitch in Aitum with separate settings and just set the rescale there but as Eposvox and others recommend i would like to try and switch it around. Right now with the SoraYuki's plugin I stream to 1440P to youtube (canvas and output resolution) with HEVC and through the plugin itself 1080P to twitch H.264. Does Aitum stream with Output resolution in OBS Video tab settings or the Canvas resolution in the same area? Should I keep those both at 1440P and then in the output tab for twitch use the scaler there and put it to 1080P? And then in Aitums settings don't rescale for youtube? I can provide images needed for clarity on what im talking about. ...

New Monitor / Resolution Help

I am currently using a 3440x1440 monitor and while I love ultrawide, It's a pain for twitch streaming/recording. I am looking to go to a 27" 16:9 monitor and wanted to know if using a 2k monitor will cause burry streams since it's a 2.5:1 pixel downscale to 1080p. Should I use a 4k monitor for better streams?

Source Replacer / Swapper

Okay so this HAS to be a solved issue, but I am usure of what tool I should use for this. As you can see in the image, I have a spot in this example layout where there is space for a source on screen, which gets switched out with other similarly-sized sources every so often. What I want is a system for replacing the source and swapping it out with one of the others. I have used the source toggler lua script in the past, I think, but this does not take into account priority, and is pretty limited....

Avermedia Duo, video signal showing up with red filter.

I installed an aver-media duo into my PC today. Input 2 works great with no issues, but input 1 has a red filter over any input I send into it. The pass through is working fine which makes me think it’s a software issue somewhere. Hoping someone who has ran into this could provide some feed skills. So far I’ve tried: ...

What settings do I use when exporting from Premiere to maintain quality but not have huge files?

Hello, I stream on Twitch then upload the recordings of the streams to Youtube. Last night I needed to edit one of the recordings in Premiere, and when I exported the video with the exact same settings that it had when I imported it, the size went from 8 GB to 3 TB. That is a ridiculous increase in file size obviously. If I have OBS record my stream at: High Quality, Medium File Size...

Capture card for dual pc setup.

Hey all, I think I’m going to try dual pc streaming again. In the fall I had purchased a 4K pro and returned it shortly after once I found out the hard way that even though there is 4k240hz pass through it can only capture 1080p60. My questions: 1) are there any workarounds for this? I don’t want to gimp my 4k240 oled monitor since that’s the whole reason I got it in the first place. ...

Converting 1440p stream from Live-U into 4 cropped 720p Streams

I visited my local computer store for insights on encoding performance (Intel QSV vs. discrete, NVENC on 1080 vs. 4060), but didn't get much help. I'm working on a niche livestreaming setup and would appreciate feedback, apologize for the long-winded post. Context: I livestream local boxing events, recently covering a tournament with 4 concurrent rings. I used SDI to HDMI capture, looped through a BMD multiview, and sent the HDMI to an ATEM Mini ISO. Both feeds went into my laptop with 2 USB capture cards, into OBS, which was sent via HDMI out to a Live-U Solo. I'm transitioning to a 2-PC setup: one local (capture PC) and one remote (stream PC, accessed via Parsec). The local PC will use OBS with Source Record to capture each ring's feed and record locally. The remote PC will stream the 4 individual rings to separate RTMP streams using 4 OBS portable sessions. and if the PC can handle it, I’ll also do back up recordings for each ring....

Match colours of OBS recording to Davinci Resolve 19 export

Hello, hope you're well. I have a recording of Marvel Rivals that I want to cut out some parts, no other effects or editing required. I'm using Davinci Resolve 19 (version 19.1.3 build 7) to cut the clip and export it. However, no matter what project settings or export settings I choose, the colours look either crushed or washed out. I understand that Resolve might be overkill for this task, but I'm looking to learn it. Previously, I was using mostly "Auto" settings in Resolve, but the colours looked all desaturated and washed out. However, I watched the video linked below and set the Data Levels to Full. The colours started to look better, but now the problem is that it looks high-contrast now, with dark areas becoming completely black and light areas becoming too bright. https://youtu.be/phwSgNO99wQ?si=yAbIWLqOyhsrALEy ...

Davinci Resolve 19.1.3 on MacOS Sequoia 15.3 - Cannot connect to Postgresql database on server

Hi, I'm having trouble connecting DaVinci Resolve Studio to a PostgreSQL 17 database hosted on my Proxmox server. It connects without any issues on Windows, but for some reason, it won’t connect on macOS. I’ve tried disabling and re-enabling the firewall, as well as adding DaVinci Resolve to the list of allowed applications for incoming connections. From my Mac, I can SSH into the PostgreSQL Docker container and connect to the database using the psql command in the terminal. I’ve also double-checked the postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf files to ensure they are properly configured. Since DaVinci Resolve on Windows connects without any problems, there don’t appear to be any restrictions on the server. However, I can’t figure out why DaVinci on macOS refuses to connect. I’ve searched through various videos and forums but haven’t been able to identify the root cause. I’ve seen similar issues on Windows, but this setup should be straightforward. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!...

Missed frames in OBS

hey, i'm new to OBS and have noticed in my stats that I get a few missed frames in a 1-2hr youtube stream. so I let OBS run over night and hit 400+. Is this normal or is there something I can do to fix it? I've followed EposVox for years and used settings from his videos. using a 4090 with AV1 btw.

Frame Drop when streaming TEB with a RTX 4060

More trying to pick a few brains with this one but have a Canvas built at 1440p with no downscaling. Within it I have my Camera feed which is sent via Teleport with a NVIDIA Background Removal Plugin ontop of my Capture Card using a Source Clone, with a Composite Blur filter, to fill the Background. Everything is set to 1440p60 limited color range with 701 space, no issues when idle but will start stream and suddenly drop to sub 50fps on output. I only have TEB enabled for 3 sessions and no othe...
