Describe the bug

Trying to stream anything results in having a framerate of about one, maybe less. Switching to a browser, regular discord, or discord with Vencord, the framerate and streams work as expected. Framerate does not fluctuate, it is constantly that.

To Reproduce

  1. Try streaming anything, in any resolution/fps combo
    2) My stream is washed 💔

Expected behavior

Stream framerate to be what i choose it to be

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Windows 11 23H2

Command line output

doesn't do anything on windows, i assume this is for Linux?

Additional context

My gpu drivers are updated. Tried reinstalling using DDU. It's not either my connection or my pc.
Just in case this is needed, here are my specs:
GTX 1060 low profile 3gb
Intel core i5 8400
16GB DDR4-2666mhz ram
Vesktop and Discord installed on an m.2 nvme SSD

Most probably you are installed Vesktop from Vesktop-Setup-1.5.1.exe installer from Releases, which is not actual upstream version of Vesktop. There was a bug when framerate is 30 fps; resolution picking from display resolution by standard; and bitrate capped to 2500 kbit/s. All this was fixed in #489.
Can you re-produce issue using building from source?

You need to install pnpm firstly: https://pnpm.io/installation

yeah i tried that. It complains because the program asks for an older version, 8.11.0

You can install version 8.x here: https://pnpm.io/8.x/installation
Running the installation command should replace the 9.x you've installed
Then you'll just need to follow the build/package guide in the readme

Okay, I managed to uninstall pnpm and get the right version, and then follow the guide. I managed to install the newer version, I can tell because the stream menu is different.. but its stil laggy, i get like maybe 1 more fps.

I believe best way for you will be just to install Vencord on official discord

I'm on Vesktop 1.5.3 and Windows 11, and experiencing same issue, at least symptomatically
Streaming through official client has no issues
