    Strange & bad microphone quality + progressive desync

    Hello everyone, I've been using OBS to record gaming videos for 2 months now and I've had no issues so far (aside from a small microphone progressive audio desync that I can't fix no matter what settings I change but I'll get to that later). First issue: For some reason something happened to...

    Please help me. My final recording is not fit to screen when I record to 1080p from 1440p

    I cant figure out how to continuously record to 1080p from a 1440p without messing up the final recording output since there is a "kind of black L" space when using 1080p from 1440p, and sometimes my game crashes when I rescale in-game.
