choppy footage

Whenever I am playing a game or are on my desktop simply watching a video and I go to clip something it's extremely laggy/choppy. It's at like 1 FPS but the audio is perfectly fine. If anyone can help me out so I can get it back to normal I would greatly appreciate it.

Been playing DBD and on some of my clips I save or on some games when I save a clip and go watch it back the clip is like 5 frames an hour it's incredble laggy and something it take a while for the clips to save ontop of that my games run fine and are on low settings any idea how to fix this?

I'm at a loss here. I've tried every fix you can probably think of and there is still this this subtle micro stutter in every recording that happens in moments regardless of settings. Not streaming, just locally recording gameplay, and the games themselves are not lagging or stuttering or losing...

Hello, as the title says, I am having an issue with recording Destiny 2. I've gone through a few forums and videos and tried everything but I have not had any success. I am still decently new to using OBS and my settings are mostly based off of a video I watched. Here is my most recent log...

While recording, my frames are perfectly at 60, but in post-recording, the videos come out choppy, the longer the video is, the choppier it becomes. I also have a problem where I cannot trim videos properly since videos appear infinite but are not. I'm not bothered by the trimming part; I would...

I wanted my recordings to have a consistent 60 fps. Sometimes I get smooth 60 fps but other times I get random drops that makes it look like 30-45 fps. I am new to OBS, but I've followed several tutorial videos and forum posts on removing choppy fps. I've tried everything that I know of, but...

I've been recording footage in Valorant for about a week before I noticed it's practically unusable due to said footage looking choppy and lacking smoothness. I don't understand why it looks the way it does but no matter what settings I do, it ends up looking more or less the same while others...

I have been using OBS forever and haven't used it for a while until recently. Now what I have noticed is when I record a display capture for CS:GO or for any display capture I have a terrible FPS drop that looks like my recordings are below 60 fps. To my knowledge I have to use display capture...

Hi there, I run an interview channel on YouTube where I bring in guests virtually. Currently I am using Zoom to communicate with the guests and a window capture of that Zoom window to bring the guest into OBS visually. It all seems to go well when recording but when streaming the Zoom image...

So I'm trying to record some SSBU footage through a capture card. Everything is set to record at 60 fps but the recording feels pretty choppy, even if the file is stated to be 60 fps in properties and in the editing software. I made a video to compare the capture card frame rate with SSBU...

Hello, I've recently built a new PC that has an RTX 3090 and 12900k (which should be more than capable of running smooth 60 fps and a consistent bitrate) but my frames just don't look all that smooth and high quality and my bitrate is inconsistent and very low quality and looks more like CBR...

So... When I'm recording a video, the game and everything runs smoothly on high FPS but when I'm done recording and I want to look at the video I just recorded, it's periodically choppy in every program I tried. Here's the testing video: https://youtu.be/0-Es0xJ46ms Laptop specs: Windows 11...

https://obsproject.com/logs/qcJ7tTLlC9Yw3pny Greetings. I have the following problem. My specs: i7 8700k, RTX 2080, I write to SSD, windows latest version, graphics card drivers latest version. I record games at 60 fps, 1440p. When recording games, the game itself works perfectly, smoothly...

So I'm trying to record eternal, but every time I do, it starts to become choppy and tear in certain spots. This doesn't happen in Apex, Bloons, etc., only here. Any help?

So after trying tons of different settings I'm starting to get frustrated because I cannot get the video output to look smooth. Here is my last log file: https://obsproject.com/logs/Dw04EMVe77k0nZKA The game that I tested to capture was Terraria (because it's one of the lighter games I know)...

I use a laptop to stream/record and I’ve had it for about 3 months and it’s worked perfect and had no issues with it. but in the past two days I haven’t been able to stream or record without the gameplay from my ps5 being super choppy… I don’t know what changed or what’s going on? I’d...

Hey guys, I have an issue with obs or maybe I have some settings set up wrong or something but when I record my screen with obs, the recording becomes choppy and low quality whenever there is fast movement on the screen. Additionally, whenever I record a game, the recording just looks choppy and...

I've been experiencing a ton of issues with grey pixelation (likely a decoding error) for my VLC source network URLs... This appears to be a common issue with VLC and can be corrected by adjusting settings like "disable hardware acceleration" within the VLC player. However, I'm having trouble...

When I play Rocket League, OBS says that the FPS is going from 60 down to 29*!R>SoSIJ. I have 0 Idea as to how or who OBS thinks they are, but my recordings look like they came out of 2010. Attached is a log file there is.
