Having a very odd issue with OBS & Streamlabs

I try to record something with HVENC (gpu encoder) and the recording just won't save. It gets stuck on "stopping recording" no matter what I try.

I have a 1080ti with a ryzen 7 3700x and over 700gb free disk space with 26gb+ ram free while recording.

 

I tried:

Setting high priority on OBS

Running as admin

Changing output directory from Videos folder to C:\

Updating drivers (however I have this weird bug where when I download the latest driver the geforce experience app tells me to download another driver which is the 2nd latest and then asks me to download the other one again. This is a loop)

Lowering settings (doesn't matter what I do almost nothing actually records on my GPU)

Changing preset to x264 (this worked with no issues but I want to record in high FPS with my gpu)

Redownload C++ redists.

Turn off all windows game settings & defender

 

I don't know what else to do.

Here is my furmark GPU test as I don't think the GPU itself is having issues rather just the encoder https://gpuscore.top/furmark/show.php?id=334203

Heres my OBS logs: https://obsproject.com/logs/aLUrm8oPBEKD7RwI

The logs don't really help as they don't show any errors. The GPU driver thing seems odd. So lets rule out all other things. Does this same issue happen if you use CPU to encode? If yes, then the issue is not just GPU. If no, then GPU and the way drivers act up becomes a thing.

 

So if you confirm its just when GPU is used to encode, then I would start by testing with different drivers versions. Don't trust GFE here, use Nvidia's site for direct downloads and probably best to use DDU too. Try with bit older version and beta version if thats available.

Apparently running two audio tracks at high FPS recordings causes OBS to bug
