Bug Report Cursor slows down at using OBS

Hey guys!

I used OBS (0.11.2) a few times and after the cursor was also captured there was no problem whatsoever with my mouse.
But as soon as I started OBS today my cursor went strange. It doesn't moves like it does when OBS is closed. (I have to say, I'm not sure if I updated my Mac to 10.10.5 after it worked normal...)
The cursor, for example, moves from the bottom left to the upper right and has a little skip on his way - if you know what I mean.
Here's my log file: https://gist.github.com/abd6153abf2ca24d07e8
Hopefully you can tell me, what I can do to fix this problem!

I'm happy about every idea! Have a nice weekend!
 
Your computer is too weak to be recording at 1080p30. I recommend setting your scaled resolution to 480p and see how that goes.
 
Ah, ok, thanks. Like I said it wasn't a problem before last time.
And this is already when I open OBS and haven't been opened yet the program I wanna stream.
But how can I fix this? Just put Video "scaled res" to 852x480?
 
I have the same issue, but I'm using a Mac Pro with high-end specs and it happens even on an empty scene.

My mouse cursor skips and lags, and when I close OBS it goes back to normal.

This is definitely a bug, not a performance issue...
 
Please post a log.

Also, if you're using Window capture, try using Display capture instead. Window capture tends to have really bad performance.

Did you update your OS X since the last time it worked? Or did the problem occur from one day to the other?
 
I'll contribute; the same thing happens to me. I'm using a Mac book Pro 13 inch from early 2013, and the same thing happens to me. It is most definitely worth noting, however, it only happens with my mouse. When I use my trackpad, it's perfectly smooth, but I play games and record with my mouse. This is giving me a fairly large issue. I'm using OS X version 10.12 (16A323). Please let me know if any of this is of use to you.
EDIT: It fixed after a software update.

Please make a new thread. This post refers to OBS Studio version 0.11 for MacOS; you are using OBS version 22 for Windows. It is very unlikely there's any relation between that problem and yours despite a similar symptom.

That said, you need the October 2018 update for Windows 10 and to turn game mode off. Instructions are below in the signature.
