Question / Help Black screen flickering in recording

[Aunk]

Hi all.

I am trying to record Minecraft in 1920x1080 at 60 fps. The game itself runs smoothly while recording, but when I play back the game capture, there are occasions when the screen flickers black for a frame or two then goes back to normal. I play it at 1920 x 1017 (windowed). What is causing this and how can I fix this?

I dont know until I see the logfile.

The stuff to look at is towards the very end, from 21:08:51 on to the end. I accidentally left obs on while minecraft wasn't running.

make sure both OBS and minecraft are set to run in high performance mode in the nvidia control panel. either one not in high performance will run on the intel iGPU which will cause a black screen.

I tried doing that, but it said that OBS is running on the default GPU (the NVidia one).
I tried recording again, and I still got the flickering:

Do you tried to gamecapture it in fullscreen and not windowed ?

Yeah, OBS is detecting that your window is being resized every 3 second, so it rebuilds the capture. Use full screen instead of windowed as FaHu said. as for some other things, remove sync audio time stamps to video in the advanced tab and instead, increase scene buffering to 700ms.
