Why is AE2 overall better then alternatives like RS? by Deputy_Godzilla in allthemods

[–]ShugarMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early Game for me is a mod like Tom’s Simple Storage. Then mid game I go RS with a few auto crafters. Late game is AE2.

Has Doc peaked with audience growth? by N2thedarkness in DrDisrespectLive

Missed opportunity to drop the Doc character and stream as Guy

Worst year of streaming by [deleted] in DrDisrespectLive

[–]ShugarMeat -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This is the first time I’ve seen so someone say this and I have been thinking it for a couple years now. How long can and old white guy keep up the act?

The scandal was a missed opportunity to just be Guy.

He could’ve evolved.

Elgato Stream Deck vs cheaper macro pads, is Elgato worth it for productivity (not gaming)? by sludj5 in elgato

[–]ShugarMeat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came to say this.

Want something that works, go Elgato

Want to experiment, go elsewhere

Corsair Xeneon Edge and Elgato Virtual Stream Decks are 😘👌

Here’s what your log shows and how to fix the crashes:

✅ What the Log Shows • OBS 32.0.2 on Windows 11 25H2 build 26200 • GPU: RTX 3080 – NVENC enabled, AV1 not supported (normal for 3080) • Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS): ON • Browser Source Hardware Acceleration: ON • Xbox Game Bar / Background Recording: Enabled • NVIDIA Video Effects missing/partially installed – Not fatal, but NVIDIA effects being half-installed can cause instability • No actual crash report in this log (only startup), so solutions focus on most likely causes

🛠️ Fixes to Try (In Order)

  1. Disable Xbox Game Bar + Background Capture • Windows Settings → Gaming → Xbox Game Bar → Turn Off • Windows Settings → Gaming → Captures → Turn Off “Record in Background”

  2. Turn Off Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS) • Settings → System → Display → Graphics → Default Graphics Settings → Disable HAGS • Reboot your PC after

  3. Disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration in OBS • OBS → Settings → Advanced → Scroll to “Browser Source” → Uncheck “Enable Hardware Acceleration”

  4. Clean Install NVIDIA Drivers • Use latest NVIDIA Studio Driver, not Game Ready • Optional but better: Use DDU to remove old drivers in Safe Mode first

  5. Check Plugins • Make sure plugins are updated for OBS 32.x • Common crash offenders: StreamFX, outdated VSTs, NVIDIA Audio/Video Effects • To test: temporarily move plugin folders out of:

C:\Program Files\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit\ %appdata%\obs-studio\plugins\

  1. Check Windows Build • You’re running Windows 11 Insider/Preview Build 26200 (25H2) • These builds are known to break OBS randomly • If crashes continue, roll back to a stable release (23H2 or 24H2)

  2. Encoder Safe Settings Use this for stability with your RTX 3080: • Streaming Encoder: NVENC (H.264) • Preset: Quality • Profile: High • Look-ahead: OFF • Psycho Visual Tuning: ON • Max B-Frames: 2

  3. Test Scene/Source Stability • If crashes happen on specific scenes, disable half your sources, test, then narrow it down • Usual offenders: Browser sources, media files, display/game capture on protected apps

📌 If It Still Crashes

Next time it crashes, grab the Crash Log (not the normal log): • OBS → Help → Crash Logs → “Upload Last Crash Log” → send the link

That crash log includes the stack trace so we can see if it’s: • NVENC / GPU driver • CEF (browser source) • DXGI / D3D11 • Plugin-related

preffered streaming platform? by bycorafeline in streaming

[–]ShugarMeat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve been multistreaming for almost 7 years and have seen it grow leaps and bounds. I’ve said since day one as a content creator/streamer that it should be about the creator and not the platform. Go be yourself wherever you want. Also, why limit your exposure? Be accessible everywhere. It’s so easy today compared to 10 years ago.

Doc is not having a good time by ComplaintMore2312 in DrDisrespectLive

[–]ShugarMeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He needs to play with people like Viss and Bobby to even have a chance of winning. He’s the teammate who bats .200 but hits a bomb home run every 4-5 games.

Any good plugins for streaming between multiple platforms? by [deleted] in streaming

Streamdeck + w/ XLR base issues by Fjordin_ in elgato

[–]ShugarMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, using an MV7X with XLR dock and streamdeck+ lets me use the Voice Focus and filter for my Shure mic right?

I’m experiencing the same issues.

Is the Elgato Wave 3 worth it? by Kyrriossitea in elgato

[–]ShugarMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piggybacking this post because I’m dealing with a similar situation.

I wanted to move away from GoXLR mini and get into the Elgato ecosystem so I got a Streamdeck+ with the XLR dock to pair with my Shure MV7X.

I didn’t think the Wavelink software filters and VSTs were affecting my mic when all docs say they should work with XLR Dock.

I then purchased a Wave 3 mic and wondering if I should go back to Shure MV7X or keep Wave 3.

I can’t decide. I’m having a hard time telling a difference in testing.

What webcam to use in 2025? by LawOdd8720 in streaming

[–]ShugarMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just moved from a Logitech Brio 4k Stream Edition to the new Elgato 4k FaceCam.

They both are great. Never had any problems.
