This is a strange one.
For some reason, I'm getting a massive amount of stuttering on stream when capturing Dota 2 with Game Capture.
The reason It's confusing me is I have absolutely no issues either ingame or through the stream itsself. I don't have any dropped frames, and everything seems to run fine like audio etc.
In addition, when the video stutters, the scrolling text in the corner showing my current music happily continues on, even though I don't notice anything ingame. Heck, I run at 120fps constantly without any issues fullscreen.
I also have no issue with desktop capture, however I can't run dota windowed because for some reason that tanks the framerate of the game down to unplayable levels. It's probably because my desktop is 6040x1080.
Is there anything I can do to configure game capture to sort this?
Thanks
