Ever since I got my new pc with 2070 super i7-9700k 32gb ram, etc... I've had this problem where every time I try to go live it auto crashes and keeps telling me the same message An error occurred with the output: Please check your streaming and recording settings. I attached a file that shows my problem. I've had this problem for weeks and it's making me go crazy if anyone can help me please let me know. If someone can tell me how to upload a log file from stream labs OBS I will upload that also.
Streamlabs OBS an error occured with your output on hardware nvenc (new) and old...

No updates should be needed to fix your issue....
Set the Quality Preset on your Streaming Output. Settings > Output > Streaming Tab
Disable the 2 second Stream Delay you have set. Settings > Advanced > Stream Delay
Not needed to fix the issue but:
Your recording settings suck, use CQP & if you have encoding lag when recording, disable Psycho Visual Tuning
If you experience any system instability & are concerned about losing any recordings before they're finalized, save them as mkv & remux.

Post a new log w/streaming & recording sessions when you have a chance but don't start/stop them so quickly.

The new log is showing this error now:
12:16:44.252: error: Failed locking bitstream buffer: invalid param (8)
12:16:44.252: [NVENC encoder: 'streaming_h264'] nvenc_encode: Error encoding: Invalid argument
12:16:44.252: Error encoding with encoder 'streaming_h264'
Here is the link for the search results from the forum for that error
According to both logs, it appears that you do have the latest Nvidia driver installed (461.09). Maybe a clean install is in order. FWIW, I'm using Studio Driver 457.30 without issue.
Some additional troubleshooting suggestions
Make sure you don't have too many encoder sessions active. (3) is the max.
In both of your logs, your main monitor is showing up as:
output 0: pos={0, 0}, size={1750, 1080}, attached=true, refresh=240, name=VG279QM
But it's native resolution is 1920x1080

Try setting the resolution correctly & @ 120FPS for testing.

So I had some time & did some testing today using your settings. I was able to stream & record but couldn't reproduce the error that you are getting. Even though I was able to make it work with your settings, my system did eventually become unstable & it had to be shut down (6700k/GTX-1660 Super). I also looked at the manual for your monitor, you should change the resolution you're using (1750x1080) as it's not supported. Go to Section 3.5 - Supported Operating Modes for more information.
Yeah, I display scaled it using something called cru so it doesn't damage anything and I get the same error with 1920x1080. Someone told me maybe I don't have enough watts but I have 600w with 2070super/i7-9700k which should be good. I don't understand why I'm getting this problem since I didn't have it on my old computer. What does the _PARAM thing mean? If I fix that I should be good, I just don't understand why its happening.
