Yeah, I knew right away that if the kernel heap was being hit, it basically had to be a driver because windows itself and drivers are essentially the only things that run in kernel space. I don't use antivirus other than the stuff that I'm stuck with (such as chrome's built in shit, and windows defender). I'm using nvenc for encoding.

Hmm, no idea what happened, but I just got BSOD'd while streaming with a heap corruption error. :/ Tried looking at the dump but can't get anything remotely useful out of it.

Besides, everyone knows that A Link to the Past is really the best Zelda game.

Hmm, I think that's one of those things I'll have to check out myself. If the leakage is low enough I might be able to just noise gate it away.

Just ordered the webcam, a bendy mounting arm for it, and the mic kit off ebay. The webcam came out to like 35cad off ebay for a refurbished one. As long as it works, that's fine with me. The mic kit was like $51 instead of $60, not a big save there, but free shipping on that one, so it was still a bit cheaper. The arm, I should have looked around first. The shipping on the one I ordered on ebay was retarded and made it more expensive than amazon, so I'm asking to cancel it.

I mean, I grabbed this, which will probably work as a software mixer. Originally I grabbed that because I was listening in on some discord chat and wanted to figure out a way to only capture game sound so I wasn't broadcasting their conversation over my twitch stream, though I never actually got around to seeing about setting things up for that.

I didn't think about how dropping it with phantom power could break things, but yeah I'm always careful with mics. If you recall, I did spend a full day co-op position in the recording studio we had in my high school. I learned very quickly to treat mics with respect. We had a pair of $2000 mics we used for overheads on the drums, and they'd have murdered me and hid the body if I broke one of those. And yeah, compression is a must on voice stuff.

As far as headphones go, I tend to always use headphones anyway. Still have my Grado SR125e's, though I REALLY need to get around to recabling them one of these days.

Someone linked me to this: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01D4KYRYC/?coliid=I3EQR0EZ41XQAR&colid=R8WAG9YRZJEJ&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it which looks like a nice cheap option, and at least doesn't sound like those scratchy awful webcam/garbage headset mics. Any thoughts?

I've decided that just for the hell of it, when I play osu!mania, I'll stream it. No schedule, no mic, no cam, but at least I'll stream it. Unfortunately I haven't figured out how to get an overlay that shows my score, and the judgements/combo, because I play with the ingame interface off to reduce distractions, but I'd like people in the stream to see how I'm doing better. Eventually I would like to invest in a mic/cam, but for the time being I can't really spare the money.

You have a better CPU than I do, the same amount of ram, and a somewhat slower GPU that is still not bad. You should honestly be able to stream just fine. I'm sure somewhere some setting is messed up. The only computers that should get laggy when streaming/recording video are like laptops (at least, anything that isn't expensive).

Iirc the default obs quality setting should be 6000 kb/s, or 6mbit. At 1080p 60 that should look ok, maybe not amazing but it should be fine for that. I have obs Dow scaling from 1440p to 1080p 60 with 6mbit as my settings for my stream. That said my stream looks better than others would at that bitrate because a huge portion of my screen is black lol. On my phone right now but I'll take some screenshots or something later.


EDIT: Here's what I have for my settings in OBS.

The custom BBcode feature is pretty neat.  But yeah, as much as I like SMF, if they can't keep with the times, that's kinda a problem.

I... I don't even know what to say to that. I'm not comfortable with the idea that phpBB might actually be better than SMF now.

Well considering what this site actually is, I'd say it's not a big deal. If someone from years ago shows up, either they have an existing account or they make a new one. If they make a new one, and actually care about posting I'm sure they will find a way to get it activated.
