I'm trying to record Touhou, a 2D bullet Hell game, the problem is that NO setup seems to make it run any better. It's mainly choppy/lagging, I spent all day changing settings so if someone could just come here and tell me what my small brain can't that would be very helpful. btw the resolution is so low because that's what it's native resolution is, tell me if that should be changed. Also does the video player make a difference in quality because I've just been using the Windows 10 one.

Change to simple output mode, indistinguishable quality, large file size. This should be no trouble for your hardware at the low resolution you are using.
Video player definitely makes a difference, as a video perfectly recorded in OBS may play back perfectly in VLC but stutter in the default Windows player. There is no reason to use the current default video player in Windows 10.

Okay I’ll try that, should I use the x264 encoder or my AMD?
So it’s much better... but I have some more problems. I’ll probably make another post if you can’t help me but if you can great.
For some reason now my audio isn’t in sync now. How would I fix that? Also I sent one of my recordings to a friend and apparently it runs insanely smooth on a phone but once he watches it on a PC it hardly plays. Why is that? And if I upload a video on YouTube would it fix any issues like that or would it still play the same as the video player?

I'm guessing the phone being used has hardware x264 decoding and the PC is likely using the default Windows media player which is terrible.
If anything plays the video well, the video is fine.
YouTube is going to re-encode everything you give them, so you still need to check quality after uploading.
YT won't fix an audio sync issue if that issue exists in the video and not just in the playback of it.

Thanks, you’ve been a great help!
