Title - im using a r9 390, but i still lag pretty bad when recording with obs. any tips?

[Eric]

Use the client Options -> Video -> Render. Tell me the best render that you can use for OBS.

I advise to use Monitor Capture on full screen

[hxdoom]

I use ts ddraw with minimal lag, running w7
When I record with Obs in monitor capture the fps drops to 9 -14fps

Try testing any render and record so what is the best render to record a video.

[hxdoom]

Ts-ddraw is the best right now

[Eric]

Thanks for your help appreciated. Enjoy recording your game sessions! \(^.^)/

[hxdoom]

i still cant record lol

just saying for non recording ts ddraw is the best, still lags

[Ykcyc]

It heavy depends on your pc specs, ofc. And resolution. Try capture with "game" option in fullscreen mode. 

[hxdoom]

When i do that it crashes

[Eric]

Go to the Game/Client Crashes & Launch Issues Megathread to report. Please upload the syringe.log for the evidence if needed.

[hxdoom]

will do.

found a workaround, windowed at 1280x720 works and is playable 

it is 720p however, does restrict my actual playing

[Eric]

Maybe try monitor capture instead. It's better than recording a game.

[hxdoom]

monitor capture comes up with a black screen with audio on recording

[Eric]

(I think my OBS work on my Windows 8 but it does tho) Try display capture instead, it might the fix for Win7 users who had experienced to record a black screen.

[hxdoom]

What is the difference?

Also i don't have that - using obs classic

Try running OBS as an administrator. If you want to watch your recorded videos, use VLC Media Player other than other media players.

[hxdoom]

I do use vlc, and i do run as admin

[Eric]

I also run OBS without privileges and worked. There is preview stream button for you to test record. There are many black screen fixes on the internet. Try searching it on Google. Reply if possible.
