Can't record 1080p

Hello All -

I'm on a 2013 Mac Pro 3.5 GHz 6 core 32 GB RAM and 3TB available external HD. I have three LogiTech C922 webcams connected to the USB3 bus. I've set up scenes with one, two and three cameras, all of them set to 1920x1080 30 FPS. The scenes all look great. I have streamed to FaceBook Live and it worked great.

But for the most part, I want to record, not stream. When I do record, it records at 1280x720 rather than 1920x1080. In Settings>Video, the Base (Canvas) Resolution is set to 1920x1080, but the Output (Scaled) Resolution only has 1280x720 as the highest option. I have read in other posts that people see a 1920x1080 option in Output (Scaled) resolution.

I can record any single camera at 1920x1080 in QuickTime, Debut or Quicky, but none of those programs do the kind of split screen three camera scene that OBS does.

How can I record at 1920x1080 in OBS?

Under Settings/Stream, I assume you have Facebook Live set. Check the "Ignore streaming service setting recommendations" box. That's limiting you to 720p. Better yet, make a new Profile with settings optimized for recording.
