I'd like it if my quality was a bit better during motion. It looks great when I'm standing still. I understand that this has a lot to do with the "Quality" setting, but if I set it too low, I feel that the overall image quality suffers. Here is the footage:

Ignore the reconnects in the video. It has nothing to do with OBS. Our server is having some small issues with the latest Minecraft snapshot. I'd love it if someone could give me some advice to make it a little bit clearer while I'm running around. I'm pretty set on 60fps, too. My system is plenty strong enough to handle it.
Edit: The last section where it lists Quality as 9 is the most recent. What's up with the log, though? It appears that the stream is disconnecting/reconnecting? Does this have something to with my reconnecting in game? I don't have multiple videos on my Twitch Videos page so I don't think it's actually disconnecting.
