Sorry for my reaction there. I mean, seriously, after all, this is Microsoft we're talking about here.

DistroAV

This is a Temporary solution until Microsoft fix their issue.
The issue is so deep-level that we cannot even fix-it in the DistroAV code.
I've been working on this problem all day and just discovered the known issue from Microsoft. The only thing that works for me is Single-TCP. I have to disable all other protocols in Access Manager. I tried just disabling Reliable UDP (such an ironic name) and video was better but still not smooth.

Hello everyone,
Do not install NVidia's Newest driver 581.29 It cause distro AV to studder while gaming. If you did update would suggest redownloading 581.15(or the pervious driver depending on your GPU), also I don't know if AMD has this problem(because I have NVidia in both of my systems).

Curious, how recent are you on your Windows updates, and which release of Windows are you running? There's a chance you may be looking at entirely the wrong problem. There have been serious problems with NDI thanks to some bum updates last month's Patch Tuesday (August 2025). One workaround is to use the NDI bundle's Access Manager and setting inputs to "single TCP". I did, arguably, the right thing by keeping those bum updates off my computers entirely because it has even more serious problems, like either seeing SSDs fall offline which a reboot can bring back, SSDs fall offline which a reboot can bring back but with corrupted data, and worse, it outright turns SSDs into very expensive and very useless bricks. This affects primarily drives with PHISION controller chips.
I am going to run the Windows Update rigamarole to see if it hoses my NDI setup.
More soon on both the NDI-vs-Microsoft and NVidia (which I have not gone past 575.whatever yet) fronts, separately and together.

Okay, on my gaming pc I am running windows 11 (I had deleted KB5063709, KB5063878, and KB5063875), within OBS in the advance settings there is a single TCP toggle and it is active. Also, the studdering only started happening after I update to Nvidia 581.29 (also when into Cmd to check if windows did a drivers reinstall with the ones I deleted).
On my streaming pc, nothing is going to change with that, because that is on windows 10. also, with testing with my phone with NDI app no studdering (to my knowledge).

Curious, how much is it "studdering"[sic] (stuttering)? As in is it REALLY choppy as all (naughty word of choice here)? Or what's happening? Which driver were you using prior to that, like an earlier 581.x or something in the 57x series? It might be something visible in my install of 581.x series, but I'm not 100% sure. I haven't tried on my super-high-speed Beam setup which requires 10GbE ethernet (I use uncompressed video there) to see if it affects things there.

Apologies, If I use the word incorrect I did not mean any rude.
What is happening, is that before update the graphics drivers from 581.15 to 581.29 OBS and distro AV were have the same problem similar to the pervious problem with the windows update. To clarify, the frame drop from one pc to the other would only happen when the pc that is sending video encounters high GPU demand, like in-game camera shake, fast mouse movement, or loading in maps. And, had fix the problem with windows updates and when rolling back to 581.15 the problem went away.
