    Ran across both this video and your Record Settings video. When I tell you that your options made a WORLD of difference.🤯 That 8K Bitrate recommendation is AMAZING… I’m broadcasting from a decent laptop (which connects to my XBOX) with specs far less than yours and my recording and streaming STILL look amazing now. Thank you SO much for this great set of videos, man.💯

      @@agedarmyofgod5249 uhh. CPU's are built to be able to run at 100% if need be. If you don't limit FPS and the CPU is a bottle neck it will always be at 100%. It's not going to fry the CPU, maybe just lower the performance and general life of it faster.

This is somthing i found months ago but when i choose my base canvas as my actual resolution (3440x1440) and set scaled resolution is set to 1080p and man does it lag and have tons of problems. oddly i just set both to 1080p and it looks great and still full screen. Im still figuring this stream stuff out a year later!

    @ColoringAffirmations 9 місяців тому

    Thank you for your informative video. But I have a question. On the advance section DELAY you have 20s, I saw that mine also has 20s delay. Why is that necessary? So if I ask a question I have to wait 20s to get an answer on the live chat? But I followed how you set things up`, accept for the audio because you have a different set up, then everything should be fine? By the way, I am not gaming but coloring a coloring book while life coaching. Therefore, I am not taxing my laptop as much. I just hope by following your set up, I am no longer lagging. I have been using an overlay gif from Canva that loops and I think that this caused my lagging. I will write a comment again if my lagging has improved based on your set up. Nevertheless, thank you for the video.
