Recently I've taken to switching from using an Elgato (and it's accompanying software) to using OBS with a Magewell USB HDMI+.
For the first little bit I was able to get some solid recordings off of my MacBook Pro, now i'm finding the recordings are getting choppy for no reason. The only thing I've done is update OBS and firmware on my Magewell.
I have been attempting to move the settings around a lot to see what would work and nothing seems to help. I've even dropped the bitrate for recording down to 1500 (yes, i am not excluding a 0, i did mean 1500). Recording looks like crap but still was choppy and laggy even at that low a bit rate.
I have the log files attached from back on 9-16-2018 where I was recording successfully without the choppiness at 40000 bitrate, 1080p@60fps from my playstation. It was a 2.5hr session followed by another recorded couple hour session later after dinner that same night. There are like 3 points in the 2hrs where audio sync went out about 17 frames and corrected itself shortly after again. But other than that the video quality was fantastic and not choppy.
The second log file attached is from yesterday 10-06-2018 where i recorded for a brief few minutes with 35000 bitrate, 1080p@60fps from my Playstation. This one starts off fine but eventually at about 1min it starts to just lose a little bit of frames, then slowly descends worse after about 1min:30sec and just looks like you're watching a PowerPoint Presentation of what still photos showing what not to do in Overwatch. lol
I'm attaching a link to an unlisted video where this second file takes place so you can see what i mean. it's only a couple minutes long, starts off great and slowly decays into madness. https://youtu.be/JSTD6-aENlE
Any ideas how i can correct this?
My mac's specs are as follows:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-Inc, Mid 2015)
Processor 2.8GHz intel Core i7
Memory 16GB Ram
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1536MB (+AMD Radeon R9 M370X with 2GB of GDDR5 memory and automatic graphics switching)
