  • Right now the workaround is to use CPU (x264) to stream Apex, but this can require quite beefy CPU for proper quality streaming. If you have a bad CPU then you just need to wait for fix from developers, but i'll keep investigating if something can be done our side. 

  • @rembomy Its my GPU, CPU is fine ^^
    I saw a thing that apparently running OBS in administrator mode helps???
    Game mode focus on apex and maxes out the GPU and doesnt leave any room for anything else, especially streaming. So running in administrator mode will give obs priority over apex?
    I'm trying it out tomorrow in my stream
  • I have always been running OBS in Admin Mode to counter such things, but with Apex it does not help. I have even turned off gaming mode etc to make sure OBS can get some priority... 

  • @rembomy Hey!! The running in administrator on OBS worked for me! fixed everything. Made sure everything was updated too. I hope you can find a way to fix yours.
    Apparently the GPU in game mode is focused all on the game leaving no space for anything else to run. makes sense if you're not streaming.
    So running admin mode on obs gives it priority.
