uh hello guys welcome to this uh live
0:03
stream so in this live stream i will
0:05
show you how to fix obs studio crashing
0:08
or freezing while you record or stream
0:11
inside obs studio for programming or
0:14
playing games so there is a setting that
0:16
you can do which i really like in
0:19
windows 11 in windows machine so if you
0:22
right click and simply go to display
0:25
settings
0:27
and right here you will find out there
0:29
is graphic settings options as well so
0:31
let me just open the zoom it tool here
0:34
to just zoom in on the particular
0:36
element so if you right click here
0:40
the very first step just right click and
0:42
there you will see this option which is
0:45
display settings you need to go to
0:46
inside the settings and when you open
0:50
the settings just drag down and until
0:52
you find this option here which is uh
0:54
graphic settings so go into this graphic
0:57
settings and after going to this you
1:01
will see this uh option here advanc
1:04
graphic settings so just go into this
1:07
option and here you will see this option
1:09
which is hardware accelerated gpuuling
1:14
by default this option will be on so
1:16
what you need to do is that you need to
1:18
turn this option off and this will
1:21
significantly reduce the lag or freezing
1:25
that is done in obs studio while you
1:27
record or uh stream your videos you just
1:30
need to by default it will be on you
1:32
just need to toggle this setting off
1:35
after you do this you just need to
1:36
restart your computer and after that i
1:40
personally did it and i am noticing
1:43
quite a lot of difference and uh now the
1:47
i'm recording or streaming it inside obs
1:50
studio so it is not lagging at all so
1:55
this trick i basically read from the obs
1:58
studio thread many people were talking
2:00
about it in the latest version of obs
2:02
studio windows 11 this is actually the
2:04
trick which happens again let me just
2:07
show you what you need to do you need to
2:09
go to right click go to display settings
2:13
then there is this graphic settings and
2:16
uh after that there will be this option
2:17
here go to advanced graphic settings and
2:20
then by default this will be on you need
2:22
to toggle this setting off that's all
2:25
and one more thing uh you just need to
2:27
add this inside your
2:30
uh graphic setting graphics option you
2:32
need to add this app obs studio by
2:35
default it will be set to let windows
2:38
decide but you need to set it to your
2:40
gpu my gpu is you will see nvidia
2:43
geforce gtx 1650 so high performance so
2:48
whichever is your high performance or
2:52
uh if you're playing a game then
2:54
definitely add this inside this set of
2:57
apps so i added all the softwares or all
3:00
the applications which consume a lot of
3:02
power so google chrome also i added this
3:05
to run on my gpu and then vs code as
3:09
well if you are doing a lot of
3:11
programming then vs code as well i added
3:14
this to this list
3:17
you can see visual studio code so you
3:20
just need to decide which apps you daily
3:22
use so just add this inside this the
3:24
list here inside your graphics settings
3:27
and then uh just use your gpu instead of
3:30
your cpu so if you go to your task
3:33
manager now you will see quite a less
3:37
load on the cpu so this will reduce
3:42
the amount of lag that you could you can
3:44
see now it's only 66%
3:47
previously it was 100% so this trick
3:49
helped me a lot in reducing the lag of
3:52
obs studio and uh as you can see i'm
3:55
streaming in obs studio nothing is
3:57
lagging all the things are running
4:00
smoothly so this was a trick guys
4:02
definitely if you do this trick you will
4:05
also face no issue thank you very much
