Hey, everyone, I should preffice this by saying that while I have used OBS for a while (before it was a Studio version), I don't really understand a good majority of the settings involved in recording crystal-clear gameplay. So I apologize for my ineptitude in advance.
I'm trying to record Star Wars: The Old Republic footage in 60FPS, at 1080p. I'm running a Sapphire Radeon RX 480, 16GB DDR4 memory, two ASUS 1080p 60hz monitors, a quad-core i7 6500 Skylake, and both the game and program are running on an SSD. I've been tweaking with recording settings for a while now with the game at mostly full ultra settings - I'm getting at least 90 frames and at most 200 frames even though my monitor only gets 60.
I keep running into two issues - the recordings will either dip from 60 to as low as 45 frames without explanation (two seperate takes of the same footage with no settings differences will results in one sometimes being a different framerate than the other), or I see the "Encoding overload!" error in the bottom left and a subsequent framerate drop.
My current settings are on .mov with the H264/AVC Encoder (AMD Adv. Media Framework) encoder enabled. I have VBRLAT enabled at 15000 target and 20000 peak, as that gives be virtually no pixilation, and that's what I'm going for. That setting may be a bit high, but that's what it's currently at.
I'm just trying to eliminate these frame drops as best I can. Sorry for not immediately understanding everything involved here - any insight you might be able to provide would be fantastic. Thanks!
