Question / Help Audio Stuttering in My Headset, NOT in Recording

Hello!

I've been experiencing an odd problem with this software. I am using it purely for the sake of video capture and game recording, not streaming. It's become an issue that the audio in my headset, while I am playing a game, stutters frequently. I don't know how else to describe it. This makes playing difficult, as spoken dialogue from npcs, for example, will be choppy and sometimes difficult to understand properly.

Oddly enough, though, this audio stuttering does not appear in the actual recording file. When I go back to watch my videos, the audio is perfect. It's only during the recording process.

Is there any way to fix this? I've tried tweaking all kinds of settings, but nothing seems to work.

I'm actually not sure how you're getting any audio on your recording at all since you're only recording your mic. :o Go to Settings > Audio and uncheck the "Use input device for desktop audio" box. I'm also not sure how that would affect your headset's behavior outside of OBS but once step at a time. Test after you make that change.

Quite a weird behavior, anyway, make sure you have all the drivers (chipset - including USB if applicable /headphone) up to date, try using another USB port if the problem still persists (USB 2.0 or USB 3.0)

I seem to have isolated the problem... When I use my stereo speakers, I get no audio stuttering while playing and the recording is fine. My headset seems to be the cause, unfortunately.

It is an unusual sort of headset... It plugs in through usb and has surround sound capability. I've tried fiddling with its settings, but nothing fixes the issue.

I'm really glad you spent the time to try to isolate the issue when I was unable to help, because that actually ends up helping me, which allows me to help other users in the future. So you have my utmost gratitude for your patience on this. You're awesome.

I suspect at this point it may be driver related for your headset, or USB related. Motherboard drivers, drivers for the headset might need to be updated. You could also try plugging the headphones in to a different port and see if that affects anything. If using USB 2.0 ports, try 3.0 ports, or vise versa as well. Sometimes that sort of things helps.
