Did you know?

Skipped frames occur when the encoder is overloaded, often with high CPU usage. Dropped frames occur when network issues exist and could be caused by servers or equipment. Here is a breakdown of how to improve stream quality, identify CPU/GPU issues, and troubleshoot dropped frames: To fix lagged frames:info: Output 'virtualcam_output': stopping info: Output 'virtualcam_output': Total frames output: 151824 info: Output 'virtualcam_output': Total drawn frames: 153412 (168110 attempted) info: Output 'virtualcam_output': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 14698 (8.7%) info: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due …Half the time your machine can't render the frame before it needs to start rendering the next frame, and almost all the time it can't encode that frame. This output would be utterly unwatchable. Your bitrate is 2500, which is very low for 1080p60, which is what you are trying to output. Either increase the bitrate or lower the canvas resolution.I'm trying to figure out why I'm having such an issue streaming at 60fps. I keep getting between 1-4% "Frames missed due to rendering lag) and 1-3% "Skipped frames due to encoding lag." I totally understand how rendering works and encoding, I've been working in production and post-production for over 15 years, which is why I'm so confused.After updating from 24.0.3 to 25.0.8 (Windows 10/64, update 1909, Intel i5-4770k, GTX970, all SSD storage, 32gb mem) I began having severe problems with "Skipped frames due to encoding lag" ranging from 5% to 15% dropped where previously it had been a glorious 0. I don't have a heavy duty stream encoding config (CBR 2500kbps, 720p30, no local ...21:35:27.728: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 1245/166631 (0.7%) 16:15:26.880: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 1020/196875 (0.5%) The log only registers one display, so that's not your issue. That issue is not reported in OBS' lag statistics in any case.90% lost frames due to encoding lag means from 100 frames, 90 are lost. You get 1 out of 10 frames. On a 30 fps video, these results in 3 frames per second. You created a video with actual 3 fps. By halving the resolution, thus quarter the CPU demand, you get perhaps 4 times this fps, i. e. 12 fps.Jul 18, 2019. #1. I'm only trying to record, not stream, and my videos are dropping frames. When I installed OBS, I let it auto-detect the best settings for me, which are pretty low. I've changed a couple to match some of the suggestions I've found in these forums, but they're still dropping frames. Here are screenshots of some of my settings.Since, B frame input is available in UI now I just used the command line argument: HighMotionQualityBoostEnable=1 Started 1440p60 stream to youtube expecting some improved quality. Current Behavior. Starting the stream shows stats as 98% frames skipped due to encoding lag Setting B frames to 0 works fine (0% skipped)When I stream on obs w nvidia encoder settings my gpu usage is 94% - 98%. My cpu usage stays in the 60-80% range. This makes my stream skip frames all over the place. I switched the encoder to x264 and it brought down the skipped frames by a good amount but they still remained. This is when I stream call of duty Cold War and call …Skipped Frames Due to Encoding Lag. Thread starter tcmich31; Start date Mar 27, 2022; T. tcmich31 New Member. Mar 27, 2022 #1 Hi there, I am currently trying to record my Xbox Series X through OBS with my Capture Card, but no matter what setting, a minute or so through, my OBS has massive Skipped Frames.20:07:53.223: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 11365/31272 (36.3%) Rendering lag is down from 50% to 9%. Encoding lag is down from 90% to 36%. I'm not familiar enough with the AMF encoder, but my understanding is that unlike the NVENC encoder, the AMF encoder *does* use GPU resources. So the rendering lag means the ...15:17:22.589: Output 'simple_stream': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 3 (0.1%) 15:17:22.590: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 33/5029 (0.7%) With that said, lets see what others more knowledgeable than I observe in your log . J. JLB New Member.Havent changed settings in months and the past week I've had issues with obs studio. I dont drop network frames but constantly am getting randomly lowered fps and frames missed due to rendering lag and skipped frames when encoding. My average time to render frame will spike from the normal 1.2 ms to 13 ms and everywhere in between.UPDATE: DON'T SUB TO THIS CHANNEL ANYMORE!For all OBS tutorial videos, please check out the new channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI5t_ve3cr5a1_3rrmbp...Encoding Lag (Skipped Frames) - Happens during encoding and is usually caused by a CPU bottleneck Network related issues (Dropped Frames) - Caused by a bottleneck somewhere between your home network and Twitch's ingest servers If your stream is lagging, it will be due to one of these three causes.Skipped frames due to encoding lag, some missed frames too.

On the right-hand side of that pop-up will be two very important lines to watch: Skipped frames due to encoder lag. Frames missed due to rendering lag. With that up, also open up Task Manager, and take note of your CPU and GPU % utilization and start your stream.Since, B frame input is available in UI now I just used the command line argument: HighMotionQualityBoostEnable=1 Started 1440p60 stream to youtube expecting some improved quality.

01:02:18.706: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 15869/16612 (95.5%) Rendering lag/stalls happen when your GPU is over-loaded, and OBS can't get any GPU time to handle its hardware-accelerated housekeeping tasks. Normally you can help this by running OBS as Administrator.Everything seems to be functioning fine but when streaming or watching their recording, it starts dropping frames and faltering (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8). OBS 'lag or frame drops' due to an encoding bug. The OBS 'lag or frame drops' issue seems to have arisen because of an encoding bug on OBS Studio.19:41:15.112: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 293 (3.7%) 19:41:15.113: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 964 (12.3%) Your integrated Intel HD 4600 is not powerful enough render and encode streaming and recording at a time.…
