Iv been streaming for over a year with the same settings, never had to change anything - but last night my stream was showing this error for some reason. Why would this now be an issue. ?

Okay so I followed as the video said, it still won't work. I have two things I'd like to say:
1. I don't record the game, I record my DAW for music videos so I dunno how to get past that with FPS cap (I think I just don't)
2. The issue started very recently, I did not have this issue at all before in my other music videos. I had the same exact settings so this also can't be a PC issue
What do you say about that?

Darn it, my game was automatically set to unlimited frames so that's why it was so laggy I didn't even notice. Thanks!
