Help with getting ANY multistream chat working

I have been struggling for weeks to get a multichat solution to work, all of my previous methods have either broken and stopped fuctioning. All I want is Twitch and YouTube chat, and for chat to be relayed. I don't care about fancy features or special effects, or events, I JUST WANT THE CHAT. Method 1 - ReStream Used to work just fine for about a year, but two weeks ago it stopped connecting to my YouTube channel entirely and would error every time I try to connect to the chat. According to support, it is impossible for me to have EVER used it for the chat and not be streaming directly to ReStream (which is clearly wrong as I did for about a year with no issues). ...

Major Stuttering in bios/ on startup

I should add that my motherboard was an open box when i bought it so that could very well be the cause of my stuttering/ stability problem cause Ive had performance issues since switching to this board from my old B450 tomahawk as far as i can remember but i'm not 100% its the board, I DO also get micro stutters here and there on my desktop but not too often (i dont usually pay enough attention to tell). HOWEVER, i dont necessarily get performance issues in games that Ive noticed. My cpu is the 5900x, I did notice however when i disabled SMT mode in the bios my PC didnt do the usual 3-4 second stutter upon booting into windows but it did however cut my logical cores in half from 24 to 12. 16gb ram set to 3200MHz (Setting this to a lower value does not change the stuttering i get)...

FFmpeg PCM 32-bit Float video recording not working in Resolve?

Hey All, I record my gameplay videos through replay buffer in OBS with each audio source on their own track. It plays just fine in my video player MPC-HC. But no audio comes through no matter what I try do in DR20. Alt+enter on the video file also displays no audio/video codec information. Does anyone possibly know why I simply cannot get the audio imported in DR? I installed FFmpeg again just to make sure as well, but nada. ...

Discord Locking up and freezing on a direct message or ping

YouTube Won't Give me the HDR Badge even with proper OBS settings for HDR Recording

This has been incredibly frustrating because HDR Tonemapping works, and I get the HDR effect, yet YouTube doesn't give me the HDR badge when I upload the video. I have followed their OBS Studio settings TO THE LETTER and it doesn't show the HDR option. Color Format is P010 4:2:0, Color Space is Rec. 2100(HLG), HEVC encoder. If someone knows what I'm doing wrong, please feel free to let me know. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/10265272?hl=en

YouTube recommended upload video bitrates HELP?!

I have a dual PC setup one for streaming other one for gaming. Streaming PC has 3050 and Gaming has 5090, and I can't find the right upload speed to use for streaming at 1440p60 for YouTube. Some people say set bitrate at 24mbits some say go all the way to 50 mbits. Some say if you go over 25mbits you won't tell the difference and YouTube will re encode it anyway and some say if you go over certain bitrate YouTube will just kick you off and keep you at the lowest upload speed?!?!. Does anyone ac...

Audio speed change

See every time I use the speed change to either slow down or speed up , even doing it manually my davinci resolve just doesn’t wanna play the audio correctly like I can’t hear it fully it’ll be cut off without actually being cut by me and sometimes the audio would only be heard in one ear, in other words my audio would get messed up at the point I’ll have to leave the project and reopen it but it’ll crash at the same time so what can I do so I won’t have to go thru this again

Hey, for some reason, every time I open the properties tab for a video capture device, my computer either crashes OBS or lags for like 30 secs and then finally loads the tab.

Used HP mini wifi connects, but no data

Got a used HP Prodesk Mini. Confirmed wifi card and antenna wires inside. It connects to my 5GHz network, but no data actually comes through. Tried installing HP's drivers, but no change.

hi there, i want to create a ffmpeg script that will convert a folder full of videos from 1080p to 2160p and 24fps to 240fps is there a way to make tweak the ffmpeg script to never go bellow 10Mbps but if it needs 30Mbps it uses it? for example 4k120fps another thing is that ive been noticing that my gopro night footage gets compressed way more and the ffmpeg lowers the bitrate way too much, for example, the original bitrate was 40Mbps and it compressed to 4Mbps while the same camera footage but during daytime, it compressed to 20Mbps....
