Hello,

I want to stream League of Legends, but my fps drops to +- 40, but it feels like I'm playing at 10 fps. I'm using Windows 8 64 Bit

Here is the log :

You keep adding sources to your scene or something. Just use one monitor capture source in your scene, you only started getting lots of lagged frames as you added more and more sources. Additionally, your CPU is going to take a huge performance hit trying to stream at that resolution and still play the game at reasonable framerates. It's quite an old processor by now.

Side note: 1000 bitrate is nowhere near enough for decent quality 1080p, you want at least 3000 bitrate for that.

Actually that message just means he's probably alt-tabbing a lot or something. I'd just ignore it if you see that one repeating often

But that's quite an older version. I recommend either 0.466 or test build 11, it's coming along quite nicely

Holy smokes... Well not entirely related, you can't stream 1080p on 1000 bitrate, even a MOBA. You'd probably need something around 2000-2500.

And yeah, try downscaling that to 720p. It'll improve your performance, you can use a lower bit rate for it (maybe 1000), and it'll look better. Your processor is pretty old as other people noted.
