well I started recording some gameplay of me and my friend. my issue isn't that my mic isn't working I simply forgot to turn it on since it has a bit of static too it. my issue is shown in this video.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJqvvs8R_Eo

every couple of seconds there is a black screen that jerks in and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. I thought it might be game resolution and going to windowed full screen gets rid of the problem but I prefer to play in full screen. my other games don't seem to have this problem. only hots gets it and only in windowed fullscreen.

Do you use screen capture ? If yes try gamecapture and look if that is working better. Also post a logfile from your last obs settings

ok so that actually fixed it. here are the logs if you still want them. I did try restarting my recording multiple times so you may see repeats.

You didn't actually follow the recording guide properly

21:24:12: Using custom x264 settings: "Custom x264 parameters: crf=20"
Click to expand...
you put the wrong thing in the custom x264 paramaters box.

Also are you getting game sounds fine?
