CPU Encoding Overload With GPU Encoding
Just a little update. I pulled the log and started reviewing any errors I saw, and there were a lot of audio sources in source clones that were timing out resulting in an error, so I went through and cleaned up a bunch of deprecated sources and closed the audio capture on source clones that didn't need it. I wasn't paying much attention to it during my last stream, but I don't remember seeing many "encoder overload" errors flash. I'll try to monitor more during my next stream,
Also I don't think I explained the conern too well in the OP. I'm seeing Encoder overload errors flash, but from what I've seen in vods, there aren't any real visual issues, and worst case there may be a degree of audio drift in an hours long stream

CPU Encoding Overload With GPU Encoding
When I was getting the error initially it was just a single rtmp and local recording session. I last tested with just a single recording session with the above settings and still would get encoder overloads. This is on a streaming PC. So it's only running ons and has a chrome window open.
The GPU load is well under its cap, but transitions ping the cpu to 100% then I get the Encoder overload message.

Yeah, my work PC is my company provided "workstation" laptop for CAD and other engineering software, but it's about as separated from my fun stuff as possible, but I loop it in via a lvm since my usual setup is comfortable and productive

I eventually want to have a second dedicated sim rig down there and be able to run either of them (dedicated rig, up stairs gaming setup) from a single stream PC, as well as host remote live streams when I go to do photography at track days or conventions

High OBS GPU Compositing Load
I'll look into this. Some of the particulars of my desired use case may make this difficult.
I ultimately want to move my streaming PC from my office and set it as a rack mount in my basement to get rid of the additional heat and sound (2 or 3 400+ watt boxes in a small space while being active does not make for a fun experience)
Then half of the peripherals (main cam, mics, keyboard, and mous) are connected to the gaming PC via a KVM since I also use them on my work computer. Maybe some combination of a USB switch, different KVM and or an active hub could help me there...

High OBS GPU Compositing Load
Soo figured out some of these with additional digging. A number of these are lighting and service bloatware from Asus and Coolermaster, I found I can set static lights, and disable the software from starting on boot, and the colors should remain.
The more I look at it, the more I think it may be CPU and not GPU related. With both the games I'm concerned about I have a fair amount of GPU headroom with everything, but transient cpu hits are what cause my frame issues, then on other occasions where I've tried to boost frame rate by lowering graphics settings, I got negligible results

High OBS GPU Compositing Load
Since it was working as smoothly as I've seen it function I figured I'd take some more profiling data to see if I can figure out any other potential anomalies in the future So test running Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) and Forza Motorsport (FM) . My 2 most demanding titles, and what I've had the most issues with. This morning the system managed 60fps Vsync with normal fluctuations staying mainly between 58-60, occasional drops to 45 while playing ACC but no major fluctuations observed on the GPU, but ACC seems much more sensitive to CPU calls.
ACC dropped to single digit framerates at one moment, and then the framerate remained firmly int he high 40's and this seems to be associated with NVIDIA Broadcast launching in the background for some reason. I closed Broadcast and it seems whatever it was doing was having a major impact, because frame rates returned to the relatively solid 60fps I've been seeing
So, started pushing my luck at this point, I made sure all apps I have on my gaming PC are open, Sim telemetry, Spotify, and discord, even a really dumb amount of chrome tabs to try and cause the issues again, while just running the game and outputting to the capture card, then taking a 4K recording while playing (not certain if replay buffer was active or not during).
- Gaming with current settings appears to add:
- 29-30% CPU load
- ~7 Gigs of VRAM usage
- 32% additional 3D Resource usage
- adding my frequent simultaneously used apps, discord and spotify, into the mix increases CPU, Ram, VRAM, usage by about 1% or less
- Gaming and recording (4k-60 nvenc) with current settings appears to add an additional:
- 91% Video Encode load
- 7% 3D Resource load
- 4 gigs of VRAM usage
- 4 gigs of RAM usage
- ~10% CPU usage
I like the idea of having the clean sources for future editing projects, but not totally wedded to the idea yet

Yeah, so the idea was inspired by this Nutty video.

I have my cameras and mics attached to my gaming PC, and then connect the capture card to the hdmi out on the GPU.
I then use OBS to composite a single 4k canvas with the cameras and game capture to output to the capture card for the streaming PC to do the more complex scene out put (will post examples in a few)

OBS 30 Update - Missing Scnes
This did indeed work. I never ran into this behavior where copying the collection from the file wouldn't import the scene. Thanks!
