I have an Intel Core i5-4210U CPU @ 1.70GHz 2.40 GHz with a 8GB ram and when using the gamecap on OBS the image is glitching and I was wondering if theres a fix.
doesn't obs use software encoding by default? which is handled by the cpu typicallyThis is going to be dependent on your GPU more than anything. That's what encodes the video, and OBS uses the h.264 codec by default. If your GPU can't handle that, though, you're likely out of luck. There's no way to use a less demanding codec.
Oh, does it? I actually don't know. I would hope that it would use the GPU if it detects one that's capable. Otherwise, it makes sense that it'd fall back on software encoding. That's a laptop CPU, too, so I wouldn't hold my breath for any miracles. OP, have you tried capturing something less demanding, like an emulated 2D game? If that has problems, your PC likely isn't up to snuff.doesn't obs use software encoding by default? which is handled by the cpu typically
Would an Intel HD Graphics Family be able to handle it?This is going to be dependent on your GPU more than anything. That's what encodes the video, and OBS uses the h.264 codec by default.

Intel's site says you have Quick Sync, which is their hardware encoder/decoder, so it should be able to. You may not have OBS set to use it, though. This guide covers how to configure OBS to use it.Would an Intel HD Graphics Family be able to handle it?
I already tried that a moment ago but to be honest I think the capture card is faulty because I'm using it on my PS2 and it just shows red text in a black background.Intel's site says you have Quick Sync, which is their hardware encoder/decoder, so it should be able to.

have you... tried using the ps2 on a normal tv or something? or tried capturing something else?I already tried that a moment ago but to be honest I think the capture card is faulty because I'm using it on my PS2 and it just shows red text in a black background.View attachment 409077
I don't have a tv with component input anymore and I tried my Wii and it still shows a glitchy image. You can ignore the image because it shows up on OBS and not the Roxio software.have you... tried using the ps2 on a normal tv or something? or tried capturing something else?
That would make sense. That screenshot looks more indicative of that, or an incompatibility, rather than an incapability.I think the capture card is faulty
Its OBS thats causing that redness, gonna try to get a new usb cord for it to see if thats the problem.That would make sense. That screenshot looks more indicative of that, or an incompatibility, rather than an incapability.
Are you using a composite cable or component cable?I already tried that a moment ago but to be honest I think the capture card is faulty because I'm using it on my PS2 and it just shows red text in a black background.View attachment 409077
OBS encodes using the CPU by default. GPU encoding has to be selected manually.This is going to be dependent on your GPU more than anything.

I said GameCap, also why are you asking about composite when the capture card only takes component?Are you using a composite cable or component cable?
The Roxio Game Capture HD Pro only supports component.
I couldn't find much info about the capture card, but this is supposedly what the minimum system requirements are.

The preview window does use up some GPU power but not in the way you're thinking it does.
If you're gonna be a dick then that's the end of this discussion.I said GameCap, also why are you asking about composite when the capture card only takes component?
Well not my fault that you don't know the difference between the Roxio GameCap & the Roxio Game Caputre HD Pro. Also you just gave me a link to a site I already been to so how was that helpful?If you're gonna be a dick then that's the end of this discussion.
I'm not good at processors but I ran into the same problemУ меня процессор Intel Core i5-4210U с частотой 1,70 ГГц и 2,40 ГГц с 8 ГБ оперативной памяти, и при использовании gamecap на OBS изображение дает сбои, и мне было интересно, есть ли исправление.
