Question / Help Done recording but the recording's length is short

[SteamingUpBowties]

Hello Everyone,

To start this off,I have a problem with OBS Studio. Every time that I record,I see the length of the recording is long.
But when I see the recording's length in the Videos folder,the length is short.

I hope I can see answers to this problem.

This is only 16 seconds, I hope you didn't press "Stop" so soon and not notice it.

What video player you using to play back mp4 video? Maybe try VLC player?
How much free space you have on "C:\" disk?

1. I use "Movies & Tv" App (Since I'm using Windows 10) to see the video.
2. 295 GB
3. I did a recording again. But I'm shocked. New Log File (Orignial:4:52 Fake Length: 00:17)

Your CPU and GPU are both very underpowered and completely choking on whatever you're trying to record.
1092x614 at 60 FPS is not viable. You are looking more at the 360p-480p range and 30 FPS at best.

Go to Settings > Output and switch to Simple mode, then use the recording quality dropdown at the bottom. Enable the low CPU usage mode.
Go to Settings > Video and drop the FPS to 30. Downscale further.
