well if your only problem is with your smart home devices it might be due to wpa3. if i was you i'd create a separate iot network with mac filter and wpa2. maybe that'll help. otherwise, if you are that technically inclined you might want to get something from this list so you can mess with it all you want.

Honestly I don't think I'll keep watching LTT even after they start posting again, not because of the drama or anything, but I kinda already broke the habit, so idk... I watched *almost* every video of them(same day, if not the next possible) and listened to most of the wan shows for almost 4+ years if not more.. Really missed their content in the first few days though.

Well... How come no one mentioned my beloved iPhonedo? Does he upload regularly? I wish he did. But his production is top notch and his videos are *almost* never boring to watch. I'm one of the lucky few who was there since it all began, and I enjoyed watching Faruk abi for a long time. 8/10 can recommend, needs to upload more often + i miss the twitch streams a bit

PS: I do not condone the use of this repo on Github. I think you should buy a legitimate license from Microsoft and do not use this repo from Github. I also think you should not buy an OEM key since they are technically not legal, but I do not recommend you to use this repo from Github either. Absolutely do not use this. This repo, like buying an OEM key, also not techincally legal. I think you get the idea.

you need to give us more details. what modem do you have, who is your isp, did you do any recent changes that may trigger this issue, are you sure that your ethernet cable and any switches in the way are OK, are any other devices affected? did you try resetting your network settings to default?

honestly you might as well go full pirate mode if it is not "technically legal". it's not like microsoft is going too hard on it anyways, if they did they'd start by taking down this repo from github, a site they own

try to learn what kind of WAN speeds you're going to get first - because going with a wifi 6E AP, 10Gbps and a 8 core pfsense box etcetc... won't be meaningful if you're going to get 250mbps dsl or something

what about some un-unlisted videos momentarily popping up on main channel and people randomly reuploading them? they should get dmca'd i think

as on the i7 laptop with 2070, i dont know honestly. you did 4k 60 it choked 72%, but it did just fine at 4k30. dont know the reason but i think it would be just fine at 1080p30.

In 3500U, Xbox game bar DVR background recording is turned on. You should turn that off. Follow this instructions. This might explain the encoder overload at 1080p30. I dont think background recording was actually recording during your OBS record, but give it a shot and then lets check the logs again. Also do not enter "250" as your key interval. thats a bit too much i think.

Can you try 1080p30 and try again with this laptop? Also, it seems like you reset your settings before taking the log. You should restart OBS after running the auto configuration wizard for a clean log file. Although you might not need to if you try 1080p30 recording. Because you did try 1080p60.

I use my 3500U laptop for recording my lectures from teams in OBS. (1080p30 dual track audio, window capture, CQP20 H.265) and it is mostly fine with encoder usage around 30-40%. I will check other files now. Please check analyzer output for the 3300u's log file here PS: you can always try running OBS in administrator mode to force it to allocate some resources from your GPU, which will help but is no way a good permanent solution.

keepassxc works with "database files", you basically open it like any other file and load the database into the program(dont worry its not that manual every time). it can be encrypted by keepassxc using "key files"(another file acting like password basically), or by password, or even by hardware key. so depending on your case you might not encrypt it on gdrive at all.

Thanks, I will do some research and take a more detailed look at the possibilities and will let you know what we can do to best use what we have at hand. I have a 3500U laptop that I am currently using and I can record in 1080p60, no problem. Maybe if its an hp laptop or something, its tdp might be low. You might try one of those tdp tweaker software(like ryzencontroller) to increase your cpu/gpu power a bit, from my exprerience i can say that it definitely helps. It being a company laptop never helps though. I will come back here once I have some more to share.

keepassxc + syncthing for serverless cloud sync. browser integration is a bit ohio-ish but if you import everything right it'll work great. and backup your database to google drive for extra backup (+ maybe encrypt it with 7zip on gdrive for extra security)

its gonna be fine. also go sub to floatplane if you can afford it. (not bc they need it but you can watch exclusive stuff or wan show chat or whatever)
