Can't get smooth recording with VAAPI on Fedora Linux.

For some reason whatever I do. I can't seem to get OBS to put out an actual smooth recording. Either the recording stutters (like long pauses) or the output file is unplayable for whatever reason. I have no idea what's going on, and I clearly know it isn't my hardware so it might be a bug with OBS.

I'm on Fedora Linux (Kernel 6.13.5) 41 using KDE Plasma 6.3.2.

System Specifications:

CPU: AMD Ryzen R9 3900X
RAM: Crucial Pro RAM 3200Mhz (64 GiB)
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (XFX Mercury)
MB: ASRock X570 Steel Legend
PSU:

I'm currently using OBS 31.0.1 from the official Flatpak found on Flathub.
I couldn't use the system bundled one as it was missing encoders.

I used both the FFmpeg VAAPI encoder and the GStreamer encoder as well.
For me the GStreamer encoder is worse then using FFmpeg and using software encoding is worse.
I've reinstalled OBS multiple times, rebooted my machine and even tried to install AMF (but can't because Fedora isn't supported) and I'm still having this issue.
