This guy seriously knows his stuff. A lot of top streamers trust him with their streams/setups for a reason (including myself). This information is SO incredibly valuable and is the "secret sauce" for a lot of creators. Be sure to drop a sub here and check Art out on Twitch because this he's the real deal. He was also a videographer on Better Call Saul so that's pretty dope too.
Seriously huge W of a video, been streaming on and off for a while and watched many videos on settings and thought I had my settings dialed in. But your explanations of every aspect are extremely clear. I ended up making 4-5 changes to my settings.
Well, time to reconfigure EVERYTHING in my OBS. 😂 Thank you so much for this! This video will save so many people from paying someone to optimize their OBS.
I discovered who you were while watching Exzachtt stream this week. Your videos are perfect. You explained each settings, fast pace, simple and recommendation by pc setup, it's simply perfect. Best video ever seen !
Have a like, a subscribe and a comment - this video solved all my issues for streaming on Twitch! I use Streamlabs but most of it is 'translatable'. Had literally searched for HOURS and tested dozens of different settings but my VODS still sounded as if I was underwater or muffled and had some issues with the video quality. Everything was explained so clearly, so thanks oh so very much! I really appreciate it!
Also, I am curious if you have any thoughts on "Enable Preview" being on or off, I've seen people say it helps prevent encoding overloading on single pcs. Not sure if that is true or not
I haven't played with it too much but AMD's H264 encoder got some upgrades recently. Any encoder with enough bitrate will look good, NVENC is just ubiquitous
I have terrible screen tearing on my dual pc setup using 4k60 pro. I have a AMD 6950xt on my gaming pc and a 3080ti on my streaming pc. I have already tried using obs on both PCs. Have you experienced screen tearing?
Thanks for the video, this helped me out a ton! After watching this I switched over to NVENC as I only have a 6 core processor, the gameplay on my stream looks remarkable. However, I have noticed the webcam quality has suffered like you mentioned. It only seems to happen when there is a lot going on in game. Is there anything that could help improve this? Thanks again!
i use a go xlr mini, i have the art tune but I cant get audio to come through "desktop audio" on obs. I switched between "voicemeter" and "system" in global audio devices and my game audio is still not coming through to obs. any help?
I JUST WANT MY STREAM TO not look blurry/fuzzy when ever im playing high motion games :( all the settings i do and change same result :( Amazing video though real in depth
Would anyone know why my twitch stream looks so pixilated even though I have the max stream settings at 1080p? I have a 4090 GPU. I don’t get any encoding overloaded issues. I’ve had one viewer tell me that the stream freezes sometimes when I’m on 8k bitrate but I never had issues in OBS. But when I stream on RUclips, it looks perfectly fine
NVEC just doesn't look as smooth as CPU encoding. I have a 4070, so I thought it would make sense to use NVEC while playing Helldivers 2, but it looks a bit jaggy and not as smooth as my CPU encoded footage. Although, the CPU encoded footage encountered some areas in intense combat where it would start to get blocky. Trying to bridge the gap for smoothness, and crisp image quality at 1080p 60. I have a R7 5800FX3D CPU and 32GB of RAM. Gaming from an Intel NVME drive as well. Maybe someone can suggest some settings to use?
if you have a amd gpu like rx 6000 or 7000 series can u do a video about the h265 stream encoder? im pretty sure ur allowed to stream h265 now and i wanted to see if u can make a comparison video between h265 and h264 streaming
Streaming and recording on a single PC w/ 3080, Warzone 2 mainly. While streaming, I get only the decreased frames, but once I start recording (on actually similar CQP settings), I experience frames drop every few seconds (e.g., from 150 down to below 100 sometimes). Also, there is input lag, or so I think. Any tips for dealing with the effect of recording via OBS I get? Or maybe alternatives? Bandicam is even worse, sadly. Tried it to...
What is the best output settings for an affiliate? I used to run 936p 6000 bitrate, but some viewers don't have good internet to load my livestreams on Twitch. For that reason, I dropped to 720p 4500 bitrate and seem to be better even though my internet is good. I have an Elgato HD60S so it makes my 1440p monitor 1080p when playing if that helps any!
I just helped a client with a dual PC 1080p cap card work around so that's another vid concept! Thank you! 6k 936p should be fine for affiliate. If you want the most ubiquitous viewing experience, you can give 720p 5500k a go.
@@ArtisWar yes, do one for us capture card single PC guys lol! This video explained a ton though. I tried 7-7.5k bitrate, but had issues and was in the red. 6k is the sweet spot. But wouldn’t some mobile viewers not be able to watch if your bitrate and quality is too high?
Use one pc stream, 1440p monitor and want to stream on 1080 twitch. When i use base 1440p, output 1080p the game (warzone) have micro stuttering in game. Also when i use base&output 1440p and rescale to 1080p - same stuttering. But, When i use base 1080p, output 1080p and resize the preview canvas it’s the only way i can fix the micro stutter in game. Do you have any recommendation ? Btw, i update today to windows version 22h2 from 21h2, didn’t check if it’s fix the problem yet.
Would like to see a replay buffer vs recording video if the only intent is for making clips and not full edited videos. Which will get me the best in game performance while still maintaining video quality. TIA
would a 2080ti and i9 9900k stream pc be best to use x264 or nvenc? my stream seems to look choppy or framey but my cpu limit doesnt go over 30 % and no frame drops in obs (might be my internet, only 40 upload)
Help > Logs in OBS and upload that to OBS's analyzer tool online! 9900k is just on the edge of usable and it depends on what game and overlays. That 2080ti is a best tho.
@@ArtisWar Oh thanks for that! I wonder if Quick Sync is worth it with Intel 13th gen vs NVENC's NVIDIA since the difference isn't that big. Personally, I use 13700K and 3070 Ti and if I'd want to stream of that same PC, you'd think the NVENC would still be the better option for me? My monitor is 1440p (if it matters at all since I'm more GPU bound than CPU bound). I play PUBG + WZ2.0

Thank you!! Would love an audio / vod trick video!
Coming soon!
“Salt to taste” , best line in the video . Always big W videos Jesse
Hey Art! Been a year or so since our consultation; finally got the 2nd pc. Stoked setting it up; glad to have your channel :) Pet doggo for me
Just switched to MKV because of this! Excited to try it! Hopefully I remember to remove the MKV files...
Keep an eye on the file size in the stats panel in OBS and when its getting into double digit gigs, sort by type and nuke 'em!

Well done bro! This helped out quite a bit and can't wait for the rest of the series!
Amazing video. The best OBS video i've watched. So much info packed in 22 minutes. Brilliant
Wow, thanks!
most informative OBS video on the internet which of course barely gets any views. thanks for taking the effort to make this.
Great video! One on replay buffer would be super useful too.
Love these vids from you, an audio split record video for a single pc with/without a GoXRL would be awesome. I use voicemeeter
Also, I am curious if you have any thoughts on "Enable Preview" being on or off, I've seen people say it helps prevent encoding overloading on single pcs. Not sure if that is true or not
Enable Preview is probably negligible change on performance but could help on single pc.
everything I could possibly ask for
Thanks great video i'm about to use it now!
Really good video man 🤝🔥
Appreciate it
I thought i was a pro in obs until now. I was not aware you can change the camera scale settings wtf
Great video
Explained it perfectly and detailed
Love your content! and can't get enough of it!
thanks
Great video!! Appreciate all the knowledge! One question, I have an AMD GPU any recommendation on what encoder to use for the recordings? Thank you!

any tips for streaming from an Apple M1 Max?
Lets go, Art! The best content
Why cant I hear my teammates using replay buffer on OBS. I am also getting dual audio. I have my device set to art tune.
Amazing Video!!!!

Btw, i update today to windows version 22h2 from 21h2, didn’t check if it’s fix the problem yet.
So if my gaming monitor is 1440p that would be my base resolution and I’d scale it down to 1080p?
Correct! Either scale in the video tab or on the encoder, like in the video!
@@ArtisWar wondering if that’s why I’ve been having issues in game! Thanks for your help
Would like to see a replay buffer vs recording video if the only intent is for making clips and not full edited videos. Which will get me the best in game performance while still maintaining video quality. TIA
Straight up, regular recording. Replay buffer = ram usage. Full replay buffer video soon.
@ArtisWar guess I have some work to do tomorrow. Thanks for the quick respone.
would a 2080ti and i9 9900k stream pc be best to use x264 or nvenc? my stream seems to look choppy or framey but my cpu limit doesnt go over 30 % and no frame drops in obs (might be my internet, only 40 upload)
Help > Logs in OBS and upload that to OBS's analyzer tool online! 9900k is just on the edge of usable and it depends on what game and overlays. That 2080ti is a best tho.
So, as an affiliate, should I be using 8500KBPS bitrate to stream Warzone 2 at 1080P ?
8000kbps MAX for video.
@@ArtisWar thanks
Great video Art but what about QuickSync H.264? Can it outperform both NVENC and X264?

Do you use any x264 commands?
I have a intel i7 - 10700 CPU 8 cores on my streaming PC. Dual Pc Setup! I’ve been using Nvenc this whole time for streaming.
Should I be using x264?
Give the x264 medium settings in this video a shot!
@@ArtisWar will do. Thanks for this video and all your help. Glad to be a subscriber on your channel.
Now I understand the editor screenshots you posted on Tweeter.
Pure concretes without too much unnecessary prolongation. 🦾
only twitch partners can get the option when streaming to change video quality
