EDIT: Resolved by switching to OBS Studio. I was using Classic before.

Edit: This only happens with GH3, not any other game I try.

Hey all,

I am having an issue trying to stream Guitar Hero III (PC of course) where even during the stream preview, a constant 1-3 frames are dropped at a specific interval of a few seconds. It's like a small loop where it drops the frames. The problem is that the game is running fine and OBS isn't detecting any frame drops whatsoever. Keep in mind, it is dropping these "ghost frames" when previewing the stream. I have tried messing with my hardware by underclocking or masking it, modding the game to be windowed or to run fullscreen at a constant 60/58/1000fps without vsync and 60/58 with vsync, and to no avail have those options worked. I've touched all of the options in OBS and tried seeing if it was the keyframe or my bitrate. My issue is always reproduce-able.

GTX 1070 FTW
i5-4690k 4.4GHz

Thank you in advance.
